How can I tell which wire from the light kit goes to black on the adapter, and which goes to red?

Yes they are RGB.
They are the weatherproof ones.
The one strip I used has 3M adhesive on it.
I installed them yesterday. I scuffed the bottom of the awning/gutter track and used some 3M adhesion promoter to keep the strip on the channel. I did end up drilling a hole right below the gutter that goes right in the bedroom. It is behind the awning when rolled up so even sealed up it should never see moisture. I then ran the 12V from the bedroom light switch to power the LED's. I put the remote "eye" through the hole to the outside so I can use the remote outside the trailer I used some Dicor to fill and seal the hole and left a "drip loop" for any moisture to drip off of. I also left the LED connector outside so the strip is easily replaceable if needed, I put dialectic grease in the connector to keep it from corroding.
It turned out very nice.
I'll get some pics up later.
Can you post the source you got this from, or the brand? Having 3M products vs cheap $hit makes a big difference.
I really want to get just the soft white, because I think it is easy on the eyes, how do you like your color choices?
Thank You,
Joe

Dodge Guy, could you cut your strip in half and use a splitter maybe? Soomeething like this I was tihnking. Run your controller output up the middle or wherever it it to the bottom of awning tube. Cut the light strip inn half and run it both ways.
