Problem: I installed an LED strip outdoors (see attached) with an additional flexible outer protective layer.
 After a period of use, the strip still fails repeatedly even after multiple reinstallations, although the outer enclosure looks intact.
 Without changing the LED strip model or installation location, please give two key improvement measures to enhance the reliability of this type of installation under long-term environmental exposure. (No need to explain the reasons.)
Answer: Use the correct type of silicone.
Ensure thorough sealing between the first LED and the connector.
