What is led strip lights ?

Led strip light is make with led chips, FPCB/ALUMINUM PCB/FR-4/CME-3, resistance, capacitance, IC, silicon glue, silicon tube, PVC material , 3M tape, wires.

Because of the appearance like a tape, so names it led strip light /led tape/led ribbon/led light bar.

It have 3M tape backside can be stuck to almost all surfaces. And some have clips, can fix on the surface where not suitable for 3M tape.

How many kinds of led using in led strip light ?

There many Leds are using in led strip light. Lightstec now have SMD3014, SMD2835, SMD3020, SMD3528, SMD5050, SMD5630, SMD5050RGB and SMD2216. 

How many kinds of led strip light ?

Led strip light normally classified into two categories by PCB material. One is flexible led strip light.

The other one is rigid led strip light. And led strip light can classified into two categories by voltage.

One is high voltage led strip light, the voltage is AC110V and AC220V. The other one is low voltage, DC3V/5V/6V/9V/12V/15V/24V/36V/48V/60V.

It is according to different request.

FLEXIBLE LED STRIP LIGHT 

HIGHT VOLTAGE LED STRIP LIGHT 

RIGID  LED STRIP LIGHT

LOW VOLTAGE LED STRIP LIGHT 

1. Flexible led strip light

 Flexible led strip light is produce by flexible pcb and led.

The thickness is only 1.5mm. Normally the led type have SMD3014, 3528, 3030, 5050, 2835, 5630, 5730, 335 etc.

It have 30led/m, 60led/m, 72led/m, 96led/m, 120led/m , 240led/m, 360led/m.

According to design request. Because of the flexible, it can easy to make any shape, and it can cut in any size.

 

2. Rigid led strip light

Rigid led strip light is produce by aluminum pcb or FR4 pcb. It is easy to install and better heat dissipation(aluminum base).

But is can not easy to bend. Aluminum base pcb is widely use in high power lamps.

 

How to select led strip light?

When we select the led strip light, We need to think about what kind of led?

How many led per meter?

How many wattage per meter?

 

What kind of led strip light?

Now have  

SMD2835 LED STRIP LIGHT

SMD3020 LED STRIP LIGHT

SMD3528 LED STRIP LIGHT

SMD5050 LED STRIP LIGHT

SMD5630 LED STRIP LIGHT

SMD5050 RGB LED STRIP LIGHT

SMD3014 LED STRIP LIGHT.

For same brightness, same price

SMD2835 LED STRIP LIGHT is a very good cost performance.

SMD 5050 LED STRIP LIGHT have 3 chips in one led.

This quality will stable, if one chips broken, the other 2chips can light .

 

How many led per meter?

Now have

30led/m

60led/m

72led/m

90led/m

120led/m

240led/m

More led in one meter, more brightness. And the wattage will increase.

You can ask lightstec for date sheet.

 

How many wattage per meter?

Normally have

3/m

4.8w/m

7.2w/m

9.6w/m

14.4w/m

19.2w/m

24w/m

28.8w/m

Many choose. According to your request, you can ask lightstec for detail.

Applications

Led strip light is used in furniture, cars, advertising, lighting, board, airplane, train, KTV, hotel, shopping mall etc.

How to install a led strip light?

  1. DC12V/24V led strip light

First , connect the strip light positive and negative anodes to the power driver right anodes.

Then connect the power driver to AC110V OR AC220V.

If wrong connect, the led strip light will not lighting.

2. AC110V/220V led strip light

Connect the strip light to power cord, then connect the power cord to AC110V/220V.

Indoor install

When install led strip light indoor, because of not raining , not shining, so it will easy install.

Lightstec  low voltage strip light have 3M tape.

You only need to tear the tape and stick the led strip light where you want to install.

 

Outdoor install

Because of raining and sunshine, the strip light need waterproof.

Normally the outside cover a silicon tube to protect the strip light.

And when install, use clips to fix it strong.

 

Controller

When you need dimming or color change, you need a controller.

You can use dimmer, rgb remove controller, rgbw controller, DMX512 controller, dali controller, 0/1-10v controller.

Length

Normally, the DC12V led strip light, we suggest use 5meter roll. And DC24V led strip light, can use 10meter.

Power supplier in one end. 110v/220v led strip light can use 50meter by one power card .

If use the strip light longer than this length, the brightness in the end will drop compare with the beginning .

Now lightstec have new technology for longer use led strip light.

We use IC to control the current.

This technology can improve the strip light to15-20meter use driver by one end.

Of course this price will higher than the normal led strip light.

How to know the led is good quality ?

There are many factory are making led strip light. They use the material is from low level to high level. We can check from several ways.

1. Check in test lab . We can check the chips, pcb material, brightness, color temperature, CRI. That is a professional way .

2. Check the led strip light surface.

We can check the soldering point. If the surface not clear, the led are not soldering in the right place.

The surface is dirty. That is not a good led strip light. Good led strip light, surface is clear, and the led are soldering in the right place.                 

3.Check the PCB

Normally, the led strip light PCB have 2 kinds technology .

Rolled copper, place  polygon plane. And they also have single side pcb design and double side design.

And the thickness have 1oz, 1.5oz, 2oz.  

Normally the good led strip light use Rolled copper +double side pcb design +2OZ.

The is good for heat dissipation and less voltage drop.

4.Check the package

We can check the package if the reel is recycle used or new. The recycle used may broken and dirty.

5.Check the label

Check the label if the detail enough, led type, led qty in one meter, voltage, wattage, ip rate.

Repair notice:

1.Anti-static

The led chips is easy broken because of static electricity.

So when we produce the led strip light and install the led strip light, we have better wear the anti-ESD ring before handing .

2.Short circuit

When you repair the led strip light, you need to use a AVO meter to check if the led strip light is in short circuit.

Short circuit is easy damage the whole strip light .

 

Check why not lighting

1.Check the surface if the led is broken when not protect in transportation

2.Led not soldering very well or the pcb not soldering well.

3.The led is go wrong because of the anti-static.

4.The pcb quality is not good, easy broken.

5.The led is broker because of bending.
