Need just one short run of colour to finish a project? This 1-metre RGB LED strip is the little piece that solves big problems. Known as LED strip lights, LED light strips, LED strip lighting, ribbon light or tape light, this 12V section (SKU RGB601M) from LED MONTREAL packs 60 LEDs per metre of 5050 SMD chips that mix red, green and blue to give you a full palette of colours from one single strip. It's sold as strip only, which makes it the go-to piece when a project needs several short sections — under-cabinet lighting, a row of shelves, a display case, a bar front — or when your existing 5-metre roll came up a little short and you simply want to extend it.

Every detail here is built for easy, no-surprise installs. It runs on 12V DC low voltage, draws 14.4W per metre in the 60 LEDs/m version, and the recommended supply allowance is 18W/m so your power source is never pushed to its limit. Brightness from the 5050 SMD diodes is rated at 650 mcd red, 1000 mcd green and 400 mcd blue — that green-forward mix is what gives RGB strips their punchy, saturated colour. The strip carries an IP65+ splash-proof silicone coating, so humidity, steam and the occasional splash in a kitchen or bathroom won't scare it, and the back is finished with 3M self-adhesive tape for a peel-and-stick mount on clean, smooth surfaces. Each end comes with a male connector that can be removed to convert it into a female connector, so sections link up the way your layout needs.

This little strip shines in kitchens under the upper cabinets, in bedrooms behind a headboard, in living rooms along a coffered ceiling, in home theatres, and in commercial spaces like bar fronts, retail displays, reception desks and conference rooms. It's a favourite of Canadian homeowners mid-renovation and of contractors who need to fill an odd measurement without cutting into a full roll. Remember it is the RGB LED tape only — plan your 12V driver, RGB controller and connectors separately. Grab the length you actually need and start playing with colour tonight.

Built for real-world installs
This is a flexible RGB LED strip cut to a clean 1-metre length, populated with 60 LEDs per metre of 5050 SMD chips. The 5050 package holds the red, green and blue dies in a single diode, which is what lets one strip fade through colours smoothly instead of showing three separate points of light. The circuit board bends around corners and curves, and the back is pre-applied with 3M adhesive so mounting is a matter of cleaning the surface, peeling and pressing. The IP65+ coating seals the top of the strip against dust and splashes, a real advantage in kitchens, bathrooms, basements and behind bars where humidity is part of daily life.

Light quality and colour
Brightness is rated per colour channel: 650 mcd red, 1000 mcd green and 400 mcd blue. Mixed together through an RGB controller, those three channels give you warm ambers, deep blues, greens, purples and everything in between, plus the static colour scenes and fades most controllers offer. With 60 LEDs per metre, the diodes sit close enough together that the light reads as a continuous line rather than a row of dots when you tuck the strip into a channel or behind a lip — exactly what you want for under cabinet LED lighting and cove details.

Electrical and connection details
Because this is a 12V low-voltage LED strip, it is friendly to work with: no line voltage exposed along the run, and it pairs with a standard 12V DC power supply sized with the 18W/m recommendation in mind. Each end of the strip has a male connector that can be removed to turn it into a female connector, which means you can chain a couple of 1-metre sections together, or splice this piece onto the tail of an existing 5-metre roll, without fighting mismatched ends. Keep in mind the package is strip only — the driver, the RGB controller or remote, and any extension wires are separate items to plan into your bill of materials.

Where it works and what's on the page
Homeowners use these short sections under kitchen cabinets, inside pantry shelving, around bathroom mirrors, along stair nosings, behind TV units and in kids' rooms for colour-changing fun. Contractors and small businesses put them in retail display cases, restaurant and bar fronts, reception desks, hotel corridors and conference rooms where a colour scene sets the mood in seconds. Because the strip is only one metre, it is also the smart choice for mock-ups and samples before committing to a full run.
