Is there a decrease in LED performance when using splitters?


Is there a decrease in LED performance when using splitters to run multiple LED strips vs using jumpers between them? Is there a risk in running a splitter off another splitter?

We can confirm that we are not aware of any performance impact that might be incurred through the use of splitters.

We find that the most common performance inhibitors are the result of voltage drop due to long distances between the power supply and product, or overdrawn power supplies which result in diminished output. 

Generally speaking, so long as the power supply used is not being overdrawn in current or wattage, the parallel installation utilizing splitters should function optimally. 

In the interim, you may also find value in the below article regarding the installation of LED Strip Lights connected in parallel.
