Flux light strip

Hello, I’m currently looking at buying the flux lights strip to use in ceiling coving in my bedroom. I need around 12m so I was gonna buy a total of 15m. Currently there is a bright days sale on (UK) and it’s working out cheapest for me to purchase 3 5m base kits and then buy the necessary connectors separately, instead of buying a base kit and extension strips.

I was just wondering that if I cut 2 of my base kits at the nearest cut point to the power connection (as circled) and reconnect the strips together with the connectors will they work as one long strip. I did reach out to Philips and they said that I can only extend the base kit with the extension strips not with additional base kit strips, but I’m not sure as to me it seems as simple as using the connectors to join the two strips together at the cut points.

Is there anyone who could confirm this or do I need to spend a bit extra and get the extension strips, I just wanted to make sure I can control it as 1 long strip in the app.
Thanks for your help.
