LED strips count as peripherals, right?

So I got this $5 led strip on sale at Walmart and I was wondering if I cut it on the thin black line (in the pic) would it ruin them?

Unlikely, it depends on the strip but that one looks like the proper place to cut. They are wired in parallel usually.

Those can probably be cut there, yeah.

Thank you so much

Yes. I use these kinds of strips all the time. You can buy ends for them too if you wanted to attach pins to the side you cut.

@bigmouthbob1 I'll confirm what @r4tch3t said. I work in Product Development at my job. Those lines are the circuitry. Every black line represents where LED strips can be cut without breaking a proper circuit. The only caution is to cut directly in the middle as accurate as possible.
