Abstract
A connector for light-emitting diode (LED) strip light is disclosed. The connector has a cavity with conductive longitudinal and transverse pins that, when the connector is assembled with an LED strip light in a cavity within the housing of the connector, penetrate the insulation of the strip light to make electrical contact with the strip light's conductors. The connector also includes gasket seals and a removable portion that exposes the cavity. The removable portion may include a window to expose any LEDs that may be within the housing of the connector.
