What are LED light strips?

LED light strips are flexible circuits embedded with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that provide illumination. They are versatile and can be used for various lighting applications.

What colors of light can LED Light Strips emit?

LED light strips can emit a wide range of colors, including but not limited to white, red, green, blue, yellow, and RGB (red, green, blue) color combinations.

What is color temperature?

Color temperature refers to the characteristic color appearance of light emitted by a light source. LED light strips are measured in Kelvin (K) and indicate whether the light appears warm (yellowish) or cool (bluish) in tone.

Where can LED light strips be installed?

LED light strips work great under cabinets and shelves, along staircases, accent walls, and LED strip lights for ceilings. Waterproof LED strip lights can even go outside along patios. Use the LED strip lights with remote to change colors if you get RGB LED strip lights.

Which color temperature should I choose?

The choice of color temperature depends on the desired atmosphere and application. Generally, warm white (2700K-3000K) creates a cozy and intimate ambiance, suitable for residential settings. Neutral white (3500K-4500K) offers a balanced and natural lighting effect, suitable for offices and commercial spaces. Cool white (5000K-6500K) provides a crisp and energetic illumination, often used in task lighting or outdoor applications.

How long will LED lights last? What is their lifespan?

Their lifespan can vary depending on factors such as usage patterns and operating conditions. However, on average, LED strip lights can last anywhere from 20,000 to 50,000 hours or even more. This is significantly longer than traditional incandescent or fluorescent lights, making LEDs a durable and long-lasting lighting solution.

How to choose a power supply for LED strips?

It is recommended to choose a power supply with input voltage of 100-240V and output voltage of 12V/24V (according to the choice of the LED strip lights you buy). Power (W) = voltage (V) * current (A), for example, every 1 meter of 96 lights illumination strip requires 12W, 12W = 12V * 1A. It is recommended that a single strip connected no more than 15m, multiple strips connected to the same power supply is calculated according to the total current (A) per meter of power required.

How to install LED Light Strips?

  • Prepare the installation area.
  • Measure and cut the LED Light Strips(To cut where there are solder joints).
  • Connect the LED strip lights to the controller and power supply.
  • Test the lights.
  • Peel off the adhesive backing.

Stick the LED strip lights onto the desired surface.

Can LED Light Strips be Cut or Extended?

Yes, LED light strips can be cut or extended:

Cutting LED Light Strips

  • Where to Cut: Cut at the marked points, usually indicated by a scissor icon.
  • Connecting After Cutting: Use connectors or solder wires to reconnect. Match the polarity correctly.

Extending LED Light Strips

  • Using Connectors: Use LED strips connector to join two strips.
  • Soldering: Solder wires for a secure connection. Protect with heat shrink tubing.
  • Power Supply: Ensure the power supply can handle the added load. Calculate the total power consumption.

Are LED Light Strips Safe?

Yes, they are safe when used correctly:

Electrical Safety

  • Correct Voltage: Use the specified voltage (12V or 24V) for your LED strips.
  • Avoid Overloading: Ensure the power supply can handle the total wattage of the LED strips.

Installation Safety

  • Heat Management: Ensure proper ventilation.
  • Waterproofing: Use waterproof LED strip lights (IP65 or higher) for outdoor or wet areas. Seal all connections.
  • Secure Mounting: Use adhesive backing or mounting clips to secure the LED strip lights.

Usage Safety

  • Children and Pets: Keep LED strip lights and wiring out of reach.
  • Inspection: Regularly check for wear or damage and replace if necessary.
