What is led strip light?

With the development of LED lighting technology, LED lighting products are becoming more and more acceptable in terms of product specifications and price. Many places that use traditional lighting are increasingly replaced by LED lighting. Many models of products sometimes, as consumers, really don’t know how to choose. Today I will give you a brief introduction to the led strip light. I hope it will be helpful to you when you buy LED strip light in the future.

There are two types of LED strip light, namely flexible led strip light and rigid led strip light. Let me talk about flexible led strip first.

The flexible led strip has a long life and low energy consumption. FPC is used for assembling circuit boards and SMD LEDs are used for assembly, so that the thickness of the product is only the thickness of a coin and does not take up space. The LED flexible light bar has soft and flexible characteristics, which is especially convenient for the decoration of dead corners, such as round/irregular design decoration, the back of the led strip light is pasted with imported 3M double-sided tape, and the sleeve series are equipped with lock fittings, which is easy to install. And it can be cut at will, or it can be lengthened arbitrarily without affecting the luminescence. It is often used in: the decoration of irregular design bodies in the lighting of urban outlines (polygonal walls in hotels/nightclubs/KTVs, etc., water drop ceiling groove design). Slot trim (door frame, bar, wine cabinet, wardrobe, TV cabinet...) car beauty (car body, car bottom...) jewelry showcase and any other places that need lighting decoration and beautification

Let's look at the rigid led light bar. The rigid light bar is made of PCB hard board to assemble the circuit board. The lamp beads are useful for plug-ins and patches. However, the most used ones are the patches, and different lamp beads are used according to different needs. The advantage of the LED rigid light bar is that it is easier to fix, and it is more convenient to process and install. With the V-shaped aluminum groove base, it has the advantages of high brightness, adjustable light-emitting angle, and the length can be customized according to actual requirements. The disadvantage is that it cannot be bent at will , Not suitable for irregular places. Commonly used in: jewelry showcase lighting, display cabinet lighting, cabinet lighting, wardrobe lighting, specialty store decorative lighting, lighting art lighting, advertising light box lighting, and hotel, guesthouse, home villa decorative lighting, etc.

Whether it is a flexible LED strip light bar or a rigid LED light bar, it has the same product characteristics: low-voltage DC12V or DC24V power supply, very safe, normal service life of more than 30,000 hours, at ambient temperature -30℃-+60 It can work normally at ℃, and can choose different colors such as normal white, warm white (normal color), cool white, red, yellow, green, blue, etc. according to the different lighting environment. The color temperature can also be selected as warm white (2700 -3500k) color temperature is suitable for gold lighting; natural white light (4200-5500K) is suitable for gemstone, jade, jade lighting; positive white light (6500-7500K) is suitable for diamond, platinum display lighting, etc.

Features of LED strip light,

1. Using flexible PCB circuit board as the substrate, ultra-high brightness 5050, 2835 SMD LED as the luminous body, the light-emitting angle is 120 degrees.
2. With 3M glue on the back of the led strip light, it is easy to install and can be used in interior decoration, window lighting and other projects.
3. The fully transparent glue-filled waterproof flexible light bar is not only completely waterproof, but also can maintain the characteristics of the LED strip light being very soft and able to bend at will, which greatly improves the quality stability, use reliability and safety of the light bar. Waterproof grade IP68, can be used underwater.
4. The special waterproof material is guaranteed to be used in an environment of -25°C to +40°C. It can maintain the soft and easy shape of the light strip. It is an ideal outdoor line lighting decoration product.

8 reasons why the LED strip light does not light up

1. The packaging protection of the LED strip light is not perfect, causing the lamp bead to be hit and damaged during transportation.
2. The solder joints of the LED light bar have a phenomenon of virtual soldering, and the vibration during transportation causes the solder joints to fall off and the light strip does not light up.
3. The LED light bar has a small amount of solder and the solder joints are easy to fall off.
4. The soldering quality of the LED strip is not good, and the solder joints of the LED flexible strip are prone to brittle cracks and fall off during the bending process.
5. When the LED light bar is installed, the bending angle is too large, which causes the LED flexible light strip to separate from the copper foil and cause no light.
6. Excessive squeezing of the product during the installation of the LED light bar may cause damage to the LED flexible light strip chip or the deformation of the solder joints and no light.
7. The solder mask of the LED strip light circuit board is too thick, and the solder and the circuit board cannot be completely fused together during soldering, which is also a kind of virtual soldering phenomenon.

8. The LED strip cannot be twisted during installation. If it is twisted, the solder joints of the LED flexible strip will fall off and cause no light.
