LED strip Phanteks PH-NELEDKT_M5_WT01 — universal 550 mm, 5 V, 5.7 W, black

Phanteks PH-NELEDKT_M5_WT01 is a universal 550 mm LED strip in black designed for interior PC lighting. The single-piece strip delivers diffuse accent illumination for cases, motherboard contours and hardware components. It operates at 5 V with a maximum power consumption of 5.7 W and a maximum output current of 1.14 A, providing a steady low-voltage light source for system builds and custom mods.

Advantages

The LED strip offers a slim, single-piece design that fits multiple mounting positions and contours inside modern computer chassis. Its low-voltage 5 V operation reduces the need for additional power adapters and simplifies integration with compatible controllers. The diffuse light output produces smooth, even illumination to reduce visible hotspots and highlight components without harsh glare.

How to use

Mount the LED strip inside the chassis using the provided mounting set or compatible adhesive/tape placed on clean, dry surfaces. Connect the strip to a compatible 5 V RGB or controller header following the controller manufacturer’s wiring guidance. Power the controller from the system or an external 5 V source, then configure lighting effects through the controller or motherboard software. Avoid bending the strip sharply and ensure connectors are fully seated before powering on the system.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, install the strip on a flat, clean surface and route cables to avoid contact with fans or moving parts. Use compatible 5 V controllers and verify current limits when combining multiple LED strips to prevent overloading the power source. If using adhesives, allow surfaces to degrease and cure fully before applying the strip to ensure secure mounting.
