First time poster. I am currently in the process of re-building a LED strip setup for my 2x4 tent. I have 10 f-series strips on a 320 watt driver. Do I have to wire the + and - on the opposite sides of the strip or can they be wired at one end? Additionally, can I also just use the solder connections for the wiring? I am not too up to date on terminology on electronics, so forgive me if you answer and I ask for clarification.
This is what the setup initially was built as:

Did you get the driver in the picture? There are a lot of different drivers of the same wattage, the way to wire depends on the volts and ampers

I always plan on 10% loss on washers...
Before soldering, LED strips must first be cut into pieces of the required length. It is also necessary to prepare the connecting wires of the desired length and section in advance. More details onhttps://solderingironguide.com/blog/how ... ed-strips/
