LED strip lighting recommendations

I brought 3 LED semi flexible 2 metre long: 

 

 

But 2 drivers blew straightaway and the replacement drivers seem unable to power the lights - they have a terrible connection consisting of just a couple of sharp nails.  I checked the driver output voltage and my multi meter is saying 220V!  

 

Anyone got any LED strip light recommendations?  Going on top of a wood beam illuminating upwards to reflect of ceiling so needs to be pretty powerful.

Apparently they are 220V DC led strips. Is 220v DC safe just encased in 1 or 2mm of clear plastic with connectors which appear just as a pair of nails?
