How to Solder LED Strips

Real Green Lighting LED flexible strips are a versatile option for any indoor accent or task-lighting application. Low profile, and (of course) low-voltage, these handy little strips are the perfect way to add a little extra light wherever you need it most.

To make installation as simple as possible, we offer our customers the convenience of both pre-soldered “plug & play” connectors or simple solderless connectors for DIY field work. However, we recognize that there are certain circumstances where desire or necessity may require some good, old-fashioned soldering. When this is the case, we recommend the following techniques for soldering cables and connectors to Real Green Lighting LED flexible strips.

Before you begin, please read these important soldering safety tips:

Be careful, soldering irons get extremely hot! (Our technicians recommend a temperature of 700° F.)

Be sure to work in a well ventilated area to avoid breathing fumes.

Pay attention to polarity. Mismatched positive and negative polarities will result in the LED strip not functioning properly.

Don’t rush, but work quickly once flux is applied to ensure it does not dry out.

Clean off the tip of your soldering iron by brushing against sponge between uses.

To add soldered-on connectors, you will need:






Soldering iron

Spool of solder

Flux paste

Flexible LED Strip

Scotch or painter’s tape

Scissors

12V DC power supply with 3.5 x 1.3mm plug

Real Green Lighting LED solder-on connectors (one per connection point, available for purchase over the phone)

Wire sponge or damp kitchen sponge

1. Begin by turning on your soldering iron and allowing it to heat up to about 700°F.









2. Ensure that the flexible LED strip has been cut to expose copper solder pads, these will be your connection points. Use tape to secure the LED strip in place at your work station.









3. Align your solder-on connector with the copper solder pads at the end of your flex strip, ensuring that your polarities are matched positive to positive, and negative to negative.









4. Add a drop of flux to each solder pad on the end of the flex strip, and a drop to each of the silver solder points on the end connector. This will improve the flow of solder, leaving a smooth solder joint.









5. Position connector on solder pads of flex strip for mounting.









6. Use tip of heated soldering iron to collect a bead of melted solder.









7. Touch melted solder to each silver pad on your end connector, holding for 1-3 seconds, (no longer or solder will begin to brown & burn).









8. Use a standard 12V DC power supply to plug into end connector and test functionality. If solder has made a proper connection lights will turn on.









To add a soldered-on cable lead, you will need:


Soldering iron
Spool of solder
Flux paste
Flexible LED strip
Scotch or painter’s tape
Scissors
12V DC power supply
Inspired LED cable or 18-22 AWG wire
Wire strippers
Wire sponge or damp kitchen sponge

1. Begin by turning on your soldering iron and allowing it to heat up to about 700°F.


2. Ensure that the flexible LED strip has been cut to expose copper solder pads, these will be your connection points. Use tape to secure the LED strip in place at your work station.

3. Strip back your selected cable about ¼ inch. Identify the polarity of each side of cable, (if using Inspired LED interconnect cable, white lettering indicates positive polarity).

4. Add a drop of flux to each solder pad on the end of the flex strip, and to the exposed ends of your cable. This will improve solder flow, leaving a smooth solder joint.

5. Match the positive and negative sides of cable to flex strip, position on solder pads for mounting.

6. Use tip of heated soldering iron to collect a bead of melted solder.

7. Touch melted solder to each cable lead, covering the exposed wire with solder, holding 1-3 seconds (no longer, or solder will begin to brown & burn).


8. Connect your newly soldered cable to a standard 12V DC power supply to test functionality. If solder has made a proper connection lights will turn on.

With just a bit of soldering practice, there is no limit to the types of LED systems you can create in the field

Flexible SMD LED Light Strips- SMD 3528 vs SMD 5050

Most of the flexible SMD LED light strips that are being offered on the market today are either of the SMD 3528 or the SMD 5050 type, and it is really important to make sure that you understand their differences.

Before we dig deeper into the different features and benefits of 3528 vs 5050 LED light strips, let us first explain the meaning of the so-called SMD LED, a commonly used name for flexible LED light strips:

SMD stands for Surface Mount Devices, and these are basically very small and light LED chips that are surrounded by epoxy resin. The so-called surface mount technology (SMT) is a commonly used method for designing and manufacturing circuits in which the components are mounted directly onto the surface of printed circuit board or PCB. You can learn more about this important part of modern microelectronics in Wikipedia’s article about surface mount technology.

These flexible SMD LED consume very little energy but provide a powerful bright light, and under ideal conditions of optimal temperature, current and voltage the average lifetime of flexible LED SMD light strips can reach up to an amazing 100.000 hours.

Now let’s take a closer look at the differences between a flexible 3528 LED lighting strip and it’s more powerful cousin the 5050 type SMD LED strip and compare their features:

Basically, the flexible SMD 3528 LED light strips consists of only LED light emitting chip per lighting source, whereas the far more powerful 5050 SMD feature 3 chips in one housing, and because of this they are sometimes also called tri-chips or triple core LED strips.

SMD 3528 LED lighting strips have this name because the dimension of the single chip is 3.5mmx2.8mm, and they are often found in indoor applications such as in bars and restaurants, living room decorations and more basic illumination projects with lower luminosity or mono-color requirements and especially also when cost-controlling is the important and in order to save more power.

To sum it up, the SMD 3528 chips are more power-saving and cost effective but not as bright as the SMD5050.

Flexible SMD 5050 LED lighting strips are high-performance, bright and have a wider array of options such as their availability in single colors and also as a RGB color-changable type. The SMD 5050 RGB version requires an additional control unit but features highly flexible multi-color mode and can easily be adjusted into various colors and color combinations. SMD 5050 is about 3x brighter than the SMD 3528 type and is often used where higher light-levels are needed and can be used as a replacement for traditional fluorescent light tubes.

Both the SMD 3528 and the more powerful SMD 5050 version are usually supplied in 5 meter reels, with the average power consumption of SMD 3528 being ca. 5W per meter, while SMD 5050 consumes more power and a ca. 7.5W per meter, while sometimes LED manufacturers might also offer extra powerful ultra-white SMD 5050 LED light strips that can emit up to 7201m per meter with a power usage of up to 14.5W per meter.

From a cost perspective, the more powerful SMD 5050 LED light strips are more expensive however and for illumination settings that require high luminosity one would mostly opt for SMD 5050 because the cost per lumen is lower than with SMD 3528.

We at Real Green Lighting recommend the usages of flexible SMD 3528 LED light strips for normal residential usages with mid-power requirements and when cost-saving is the key factor, while SMD 5050 LED light strips are better suitable for RGB color settings and when luminosity requirements are higher and more 
demanding.

Your Guide on How to Buy LED Strip Lights


Light emitting diodes, or LEDs, are becoming increasingly popular for home lighting. Compared to regular incandescent and halogen lights, LEDs have a slew of benefits including that they use very little electricity, have a very long lifespan, don’t produce much heat, and can easily be controlled and programmed. As LEDs are also very durable and resistant to shock, they can also be used in a variety of ways – including as strip lights. Buying LED strip lights may seem straight forward, but there are actually many different factors that buyers need to take into consideration to ensure they get the right lights for their needs.

Types of LED Light Strips

‘LED light strip’ is a generic term used to describe the many different types of LED lights that come in strips. Depending on how you plan on using the LEDs, you may actually need one type of LED light strip over another. For example, coated LED strip lights are better suited for areas like bathrooms because they are generally waterproof. For areas like walkways though, you may want to opt for aluminum panel LED light strips.
Encased flexible LED light strips (also called LED rope)
Non-encased flexible LED light strips (also called LED ribbons)
Self-adhesive LED light strips
Aluminum LED light strips
Rigid LED light strips (also called LED light bars)

LEDs in the Length of Strip

When buying LED strip lights, a lot of people make the mistake of only looking at the length of the strip. While this is obviously important, they also need to look at the amount of LEDs in the length. Ideally, you should look for the strip lights that have the highest amount of LEDs per foot (or meter, yard, etc). If the LED lights are spaced too far apart, the strip could produce spot-like lighting instead of a clean line of light.

Figuring out the number of LEDs per strip can be rather confusing because there is no standard used by manufacturers. One brand might advertise 200 LEDs per reel whereas another advertises 90 LEDs per meter and yet another advertises 40 LEDs per foot. You will first have to choose a unit of measurement (such as feet, yards, or meters) and then do some basic math to figure out exactly how many LEDs each strip has per unit.


Brightness of LED Strip Lights

Over the past years, LED technology has significantly improved so that the small diodes can produce much brighter light. However, this doesn’t mean you should assume that your LED strip lights will be bright. In some cases, you may not even want the light to be bright, such as if you are using it for accent lighting.

The brightness of lights is measured in lumens (not watts as is commonly believed). Depending on how you are using the LED strip lights, you will require a certain level of lumens.

Use Lumens Required Per Foot
Accent lighting 150 to 250
Under-cabinet lighting 175 to 550
Task lighting near source 250 to 450
Task lighting far from source 350 to 700
Indirect lighting 375 to 575
Signs 500 to 750


Most reputable LED strip light manufacturers will list the amount of lumens their products produce. However, you have to pay careful attention to how the lumens are listed. There is no set standard, so one manufacturer may state that there are 250 lumens per foot whereas another states that there are 250 lumens per meter. The first LED strip light would be much brighter than the second.


LED Strip Light Color

LED strip lights come in a wide range of colors as well as strips that can change colors. The most basic LED strip lights are called ‘non addressable’ and will only emit one fixed color of light. They are cheap to purchase and generally easier to install.

A second type of LED light is called ‘non addressable RGB strips’. These LED lights can display any Red-Green-Blue color. These are different than ‘addressable RGB’ LED strip lights. The difference is that addressable LED strip lights have a small controller between each LED that makes it possible to control each LED on an individual basis. Addressable LED lights will be more expensive and are usually not necessary for most home needs.


Color Temperature

Color temperature is something very different than the color of an LED light. Temperature indicates how ‘warm’ or ‘cold’ the light appears. Temperature is rated in Kelvin with higher Kelvin representing cool colors and lower Kelvin representing warmer colors.

Temperature Kelvin Light Color Applications
5000K-6000K Daylight
Outdoor LED lighting
Bathrooms
Situations when bright light is needed, such as reading
3500K-4100K Cool White
Kitchens
Hallways
2700K-3000K Soft White
Living rooms
Bedrooms

Note that it is possible to find LED strip lights that have color adjustable temperatures. These adjustable temperature LED strips can be very useful if you want to use the light strips for various types of mood lighting.


Installation of the LED Strip Lights

Never buy LED strip lights without first considering how you will install them. If you are buying a flexible strip of LED lights with adhesive backing, then this may be as simple as sticking the lights where you want them to go and plugging them in. In other cases though, such as for complex installations where strips must be cut and programmed, the installation can get complicated. In regards to installation, always be sure to consider the following factors:
Required length of the strip/number of strips needed
Power and voltage requirements
Direction of the LEDS on the strip
Flexibility of the LED strip lights
Whether components such as connectors are needed
Whether the strip needs to be programmed

Wattage of LED Strip Lights

Before buying any LED strip light, you will need to look at the wattage. First off, you need to make sure that your power outlet can handle the energy demands of the LEDs. This is fairly simple to calculate by doing some basic math.

Find out how much power your power supply can handle. For example, a typical power outlet can handle 15 amps before it will short out. At 120 volts, that comes out to 1800 watts. It is advised that you never surpass 80 percent of the total capacity, so you wouldn’t want to put more than 1440 watts. On the product specifications of the LED strip lights you want to buy, you should find the wattage. Note that wattage is sometimes listed per reel, per unit of measurement, or per LED. If wattage is listed in units or per LED, then calculate how many feet or LEDs will be used in your total project and multiply that by the wattage. This will let you know whether your circuit can handle the LEDs.

Another reason to pay attention to LED wattage is because of energy consumption. Even though LEDs typically don’t use much electricity (compared to most other types of lights, at least), the electricity usage can still add up and take a toll on your electric bill.


Conclusion

Shopping for LED strip lights doesn’t have to be difficult so long as you know what to look for. Most importantly, buyers will want to make sure they understand their options for installation, power demands, and colors. There are also many LED strip lights for specialized use, such as LEDs that are programmable.

THE TRUTH ABOUT LED STRIPLIGHTS – 7 MUST-KNOWS’ BEFORE YOU BUY!

When considering using LED strip lights (also known as “tapelights”) in lighting projects, one quickly realizes that there are many different products being offered in the market, with various qualities and technical characteristics. There are certain criteria that we can apply to help us determine what is the right type of striplight to use in any given situation. To prevent problems, consider the following 7 must-know TIPS:

#1. Line-Voltage vs. Low Voltage

The first consideration is what voltage to use (usually 120V, 12V, or 24V). This will depend on the application and other practical considerations for installation. Line-voltage (120V) striplights come in spools of 50 metres. This allows for installation of long stretches without the need to splice various sections, thus saving labor costs and time when installing. These tapelights can be cut every half metre (50cm).

On the other hand, most 12V and 24V striplights come in 5 metre spools. They are excellent options for use in boats, trailers, kitchens, and wet locations, including swimming pools and fountains, where low voltage is required for safety reasons. The cutting unit for most low voltage products is 5cm. They require a power adapter (DC12 V and DC 24V, respectively). It is critical to ensure that you use the right power adapter for the wattage and length of the striplight that you choose to employ.

#2. Length of striplight and number of LEDs per metre

Regardless of the brand to be used, LED striplights come in many different models, and the number of LEDs per metre vary. Usually, striplights come with 30, 60, or 90 LEDs per metre. There are some products featuring also 75, 120, and 144 LEDs per metre for certain special applications. Specialty striplights used as components for machinery and high-tech applications are also available.

Real Green LightingLED Striplight PRO (120V, 50m spool) has 60 high-output LEDs per metre. Each chip emmits an impressive 23 lumens, making it one of the brightest of its kind in the market.

Some manufacturers offer products containing 120 or 144 LEDs per metre, which are basically double strips. They generate a lot of heat, and are usually sold without a silicon sleeve or any other protection to prevent them from burning and to allow the heat to dissipate. Beware!

#3. Dust and Water Protection Grade
LEDs are sensitive to water and can be damaged by the action of ambient dust. There is a wide range of striplight protection grades. One recognized international guideline is the IP standard, which is comprised of two numbers: the first one denotes the water protection class, and the second one indicates the level of protection against dust:

Type of Protection Features IP GradeUnprotected Plain striplight 20

Type A Silicon Sleeve 67

Type B Epoxy Coating 68

Type C Silicon Sleeve and Epoxy Filling 68

Type D PVC Tubing Not recommended

Type D is not recommended because the tubing turns yellow over time, and is easily damaged by chlorine, UV rays, and heat.

The protection grade is critical when comparing prices. Purchasers often overlook this feature, assuming that all products offer the same protection level.

#4. Lumens per linear metre generated

The striplight’s output is another crucial characteristic to take into account. The luminous efficacy is measured by the lumens produced per watt consumed by the striplight. This is determined by the quality of the LEDs (Wide Loyal uses high-end Epistar chips). The luminous efficacy is one of the most important points to look at when considering the use of any LED product.

The brightness of the striplight is a key factor also when considering installation behind crown moldings, trim pieces, light trays, etc. If the strip is to be exposed, bear in mind that each LED chip will be visible. For an “even”, neon-like effect, LED tubing such as Real Green Lighting Flexi-Neon is recommended instead.

#5. LED Types

There are many types of LEDs used in various striplight models, including LED SMD 5060, LED SMD 5050, LED SMD 3528, LED SMD 335, and LED SMD 5730, among others.

The LED SMD (Light Emitting Diode Surface Mount Device) is, as the name indicates, an LED chip that is surface mounted on the striplight. The chip is enveloped in epoxy resin.

The SMD is a semi-conductor that can be either indium gallium nitride (emitting light in the green and blue part of the spectrum) or gallium phosphide (emits light in the red part of the spectrum). To produce white light, an LED emitter with a phosphor coating that emits at longer wavelengths is used, giving a full spectrum of visible light.

SMD technology offers many advantages. It is shock-resistant in normal application uses, it is also vibration-resistant, and does not emit either ultra violet or infrared light.

In addition, its color-rendering index (CRI) is greater than 85% in a scale ranging from 1 (very poor) to 100 (excellent). The CRI indicates how accurate a “given” light source is at rendering color when compared to a “reference” light source. The higher the CRI, the better the color rendering ability.

LED Format

DIMENSIONS 50*60 mm 50*50 mm 35*28 mm 3*35 mm

TYPE Monochrome Monochrome Monochrome Monochrome

BEAM ANGLE 120 Degrees 120 Degrees 120 Degrees Side-Emitting

SMD 35*28




SMD 50*50




SMD 3*35



#6. Power supplies, controllers, and other accessories

In addition to line-voltage striplights, these products are available for use with 12V or 24V power adapters fed from 105/230 Volt networks, usually AC.

It is important to know the watts that each strips consumes to be able to determine if the power supply can provide the necessary power without any problems. Most striplights are dimmable using an LED dimmer.

Real Green Lightingstriplights are supported by a complete line of accessories, including mounting channels and clips, end caps, various types of splice connectors, power cords, light dimmers, and controllers, etc.

The company provides the only power cord/rectifier capable of safely loading up to 600ft (200m) of striplight. This prevents one of the most common problems encountered in striplight installations: overheating and power cord failure – which may lead to fire hazard.

#7. Some Mounting Recommendations
> Do not connect the striplight to the power supply with the power on.

> Follow the striplight’s polarity; positive to power supply positive.

> Ensure that the power source is adequate for the striplight.

> Ensure that the striplight, the power supply, and all connections are properly protected as per the job requirements.

> Ensure that no elements that may damage the striplight are in its proximity, such as heaters or abrasive materials.

Ensure that the heat generated by the striplight can be dissipated effectively.

Do not light up the striplight unless the spool is unrolled. Ligting it up unrolled will overheat the materials.

LED TYPE SMD 3528 SMD 3528 SMD 5050 SMD 5050

LEDs/m 60 120 30 60

CONSUMPTION (W/m) 4.8 10 7.5 14.5

VOLTAGE 12 VDC 12 VDC 12 VDC 12 VDC

AMPs 2 2 6 6

LUMENS/m 220/360 440/720 360 720

Millicandelas (LED mcd)* according to LED type and color:

LED TYPE SMD3528 BRIGHTNESS (MILLICANDELAS) LED TYPE SMD5050 BRIGHTNESS (MILLICANDELAS)

RED 1000-1200 MCD/LED RED 3000-4000 MCD/LED

YELLOW 1000-1200 MCD/LED YELLOW 3000-4000 MCD/LED

BLUE 400-600 MCD/LED BLUE 2500-3500 MCD/LED

GREEN 1500-2000 MCD/LED GREEN 4000-5000 MCD/LED

WHITE 1600-2000 MCD/LED WHITE 4000-5000 MCD/LED

WARM WHITE 1600-2000 MCD/LED WARM WHITE 4000-5000 MCD/LED

RGB NO RGB 2500-3500 MCD/LED

*Milicandela (LED mcd) is another method used to specify the intensity of the light emitted.

Finally, it is advisable to bear in mind that not all striplights are made equal. Real Green Lighting PRO series, for example, is manufactured with pure copper wiring – no aluminum – which offers greater durability and reliability. The PRO striplights are also protected with a double anti-corrosion coating (on both sides of the strip), and high-quality PVC. These features, while not obvious to the naked eye, can make the difference between a successful application and unnecessary headaches down the road.

Craftsmanship 120V LED Rope Light

120V LED Rope Light production process include: production, semi-products production, production clad, finished product testing and maintenance of the core wire. First, the core of production: tube lights luminous core wire is the carrier body and the circuit, which is the core part of the hose lamp wire is the use of PVC plastic and copper wire through an extruder and molding made, as drawn wire, if the lamp is a tube with a vertical hole structure, then the core wire to go through a perforated production process is completed, the core wire is perforated by a dedicated automated punch and die to achieve, according to the requirements of the arrangement spacing and light body structure of the light emitter and the production of a variety of different cores. Second, the semi-product of the production: wire after production is completed, the lamp will enter the plug, twist your ankle or a column process connection, parallel testing, the shaft, these processes are generally manual work to complete. Wire principle hose light that a number of series-connected light-emitting element operating in accordance with the use of voltage, light from other requirements, then these light strings arranged in an orderly manner parallel to the mosaic in the core of the several pieces of the leading online, some luminous body Just make a simple connection lamp foot, some make the luminous body and some electronic components fixed to the PCB further connection, tube lights from these light strings is composed of elongated flexible wire. The traditional production methods that are inserted into the mini-bulb lamp wick hole hose lines, and with a sharp Tsui clamp the bulb feet were checked, hook together, and then electric iron, solder, solder oil the two lamp pins welding, with Its handle apertures core wire solder squeezed between two bulbs or without soldering connections, but the metal nail inserted into the aperture between the lamp and the lamp in the discharge lamp pins, i.e. complete a light bulb with the light bulb wick attached hose lines. This practice not only a waste of manpower, material resources, and because welding smoke all over, pollution production environment, and poor product quality. An advanced process equipment can solve the above shortcomings and deficiencies, this process means is carried by the housing, small motors, transformers, electronic control circuit board, power switch, foot switch, twist lamp foot chuck, plug the lamp pins inserted etc. composition, you can control the number of turns of the motor shaft after starting rotation, twist lamp pins can be connected to the rear end of the chuck motor shaft, through the use of such devices, greatly improving labor productivity, reduce labor intensity, reduce production costs. With the continuous improvement of production technology tube lights, endless variety of advanced tooling equipment, the introduction of tube lights each step of the integration of the machine, no doubt to the high volume hose lamp provides a great convenience. An advanced automatic drilling plug lights, automatic bonders, automatic quote sheet insertion machine, circuit board wave soldering machines, all kinds of production lines, etc., these advanced machines in the production of tube lights should be transported and Health. Third, the production of the coating layer: the latter half of the finished product tube lights, do half product testing and aging, you can enter into the production of the cladding layer. Tube lights cladding layer is used to protect the core of the luminous body and the circuit, not clad, these light-emitting components will damp rust, and even short-circuit, causing electric shock and fire; surface of the hose lights shaped like a spiral pattern, ruled, diamond pattern, ice pattern, color stripes, wave pattern, etc. is expressed by a cladding layer. Cladding layer processing and production is the use of PVC plastic and wire through an extruder and die molded, in line with the hose wick and circuit phosphor coated layer of PVC insulated plastic to form a tube lights lamp body. Some would say, why bother! Lights directly into the water on the line But this water lamp is a hollow structure, waterproof seal both ends is difficult to achieve, in the water when the lamp is lit, due to moisture inside the tube was luminous body heat of vaporization, we can often find attached on its inner wall There are drops of water one by one; in addition, the use of water when installing the lamp, due to the bending fold transition easily lead to rupture of the wall, and that light is made not long pipes, the more difficult it is to wear tube-making step, it's lights body is difficult to achieve and 延接 cut, which brought a lot of inconvenience to the installation and general use, water hose lamp light can not be replaced.

Fourth, the final test and repair: tube lights need to be finished after the completion of testing and maintenance to eliminate bad each of the steps generated by the lamp body through power light, bend, beat the test can usually be found in the luminous body does not shine, welding poor contact, open circuit, short circuit and other undesirable phenomena. Countless luminous body arranged in the lamp body, how can we find a place where there is a problem This should be ruled out by each special test pen. Traditional repair methods tube lights is that in a bad or poor connections at the United States-resistant lamp bulb with a sharp knife to cut open the blade a coating layer of about 25 mm, the poor connection to repair or replace the bad bulb, Apply glue at the edge of the moment, with a sharp Tsui clamp the outer edge clamped together for a few seconds, use glue adhesive force of the blade glued together, this repair method is a waste of glue, and easy in the cold or heat The environment of the lower edge of the crack US resistance to light, or in the case of bending so that the blade cracking, and the incision is not good insulating properties, not waterproof. The new repair method is to use a hot melt molding apparatus, hot hair dryer, knives and needle-nose pliers four tools to achieve.

Existence since 120V LED tube lights Rope Light birth defects in an obscure an obscure flaw, a light bulb filament is burned off, the whole string of lights do not light up. Existing two kinds of methods, namely the use of welding methods to repair, the second is to develop a light bulb, called "bridge resistance wire bulb" (Bridged Lamps), rather than "Fuse Lamp" (Fused Lamps), on bypass bulbs in Europe Standard EN60598-2-20 has this description:. "For lighting chains fitted with se-ries-connected lamps, resistors, if any, for bridging the lamp filaments shall be contained within the lamps The pro-tection against electric shock and fire shall not be impaired when these resis-tors are functioning ". About fuse bulbs description is: "a fused lamp is a lamp de-signed so as to break the circuit in the event of an overload either by means of a separate fuse incorporated within the lamp or by any other means eg a special filament" . Fuse bulb when overcurrent by fuse or specially incorporated filament to cut off the current, while bridging resistance between the tungsten filament bulb in parallel with a resistance wire, its purpose is to string a few filament lamp in the rear, and the rest bulbs illuminate, but the European standards "when these resistance wire act, should not cause electric shock and fire." Resistance wire act, there are two cases, one tungsten are constantly, and second, there are several tungsten wire is broken. Since a resistor in parallel with the lamp resistance value decreases, current, temperature (tungsten breaking the more current is smaller), how to do If temperature switch (Thermal cutoffs), has the following disadvantages: 1, heating and cooling process temperature switch 20 degrees, causing light discontinuity; 2, high cost; 3, inconvenient to do intensive drilling and luminous body light. If the case of the bridge resistance wire resistance research, when the resistance wire is small, in the case of the continuous tungsten, with original 6.5V / 70MA bulb will light a lot of contrast, but off 1 to 3 of the tungsten wire the lights will not dim a lot; when the resistance wire is large, in the case of tungsten constantly with the original 6.5V / 70MA bulbs but in contrast to the brightness of nearly 1 to 3 tungsten off the case, the lights will dim a lot By the above analysis, it is necessary to develop Study of a bridging resistance wire bulbs, cost is not high.

Advantages of LED Rope

led flexible Rope Light is a recent date, is the most popular of a LED breakthrough products, which make up the glass Rope Lights and lack of fiber. LED flexible Rope Light is a professional decorative linear lighting products, although she looks no different from ordinary Rope Light light, but it can be bent arbitrarily, with anti-broken and water features, can be used in indoor and outdoor. Relative glass Rope Lights, flexible Rope Light with the following advantages: a large traditional Rope Light investment, complex process, use pipe work, there are a lot of inconvenience when high-voltage and inert gas. Flexible Rope Light with a new structure and LED technology, the bright LED bulb on a special PVC shell package, using unique optical technologies and specialized housing design, not only increased the intensity and uniformity of light, but also reduce the process, improve production efficiency. High-brightness light source is imported high brightness LED in series, 80LED / m or 90LED / m encryption arrangement is the overall effect and high-brightness light-emitting fundamental guarantee. Longevity and durability. Based on LED technology, the new structure, so that in any case the lamp section to achieve ultra-long service life of 100,000 hours, the relative glass Rope Light, its durability goes without question, because there is no need to consider glass Rope Light crushing problems (PVC plastic lamp body)

Energy saving. Flexible whole body lights with energy savings of more than 70% of energy consumption costs. Glass Rope Light 26.25W / M lights with flexible quintana, 4.7W / M (R, Y, O) 6.6W / M (G, B, W) make use of the traditional Rope Light transformer 220V to 15000V excited glass tube voltage boost in inert gas hair along the outline font pattern of monochromatic light, two colors will need two sets of glass. Font is too large, middle stroke does not shine; too small, too complicated, and processing it out. The work flexible Rope Light voltage only 24V, 120V led Rope Light can also be produced only sporadic low-calorie, can be cut to any length during installation, bent into different shapes (which can be bent to a radius of only 4cm round), it is easy to use special tracks with different surface mounted together, such as wood, plastic, steel or wall, at the same time can be designed into different decorative patterns according to the designer's needs.



Safety. Unlike glass Rope Light, it requires a high voltage 15,000V normal operation, and the case of whole body lights with flexible low voltage at 24V can be run properly, with its shock-proof, low heat, its use is extremely safe. Dynamic delivery and installation. Because, in essence, similar to ordinary rainbow tube, making its transport as safe and convenient LED rainbow tube, with a special slot, the slot when you install just put the nail is good, then it snaps up to, and ordinary wire installation as easy and reliable.

Safety end voltage, low power, because the light source is LED, so even in the case of 24V can also work normal light, its power consumption is 4.7W / M (R, Y, O), 6.6W (G, B , W). Traditional Rope Light work only at room temperature, using a process must be boosted voltage, power consumption is also large, high cost, short life, inconvenient maintenance. The flexible LED Rope Light LED for each point is Designed, distribute only low in calories, the same LED brightness equivalent to conventional bulbs only one seventh of the power consumption, power consumption of the traditional Rope Light 28.7W / m, and flexible Rope Light only 4.7W / m or 6.6W / m, and LED lamp life longer than traditional, while LED Rope also has a shockproof, heat-resistant features. soft. Whole body lights with flexible, it can be bent to a minimum diameter of 8CM, and can be cut at any scissors mouth, so be bent into a variety of text, graphics,

What's the difference between LED digital tubes and LED Rope Light

RGB_LED basic knowledge

1.LED current major application
* Building exterior lighting
* Entertainment and stage lighting
* Interior display lighting * road, landscape lighting
* Identification and indicative lighting
* Traffic lights, video screens

2. Common LED lights:

LED lights have a common market: LED lights and buried, LED underwater lights, LED lawn lamp, LED lights outline,120V LED Rope Light, LED lights Cup, LED flood light, LED spotlights, LED brick lights, LED wall lights , LED bulb.
With LED light efficiency improvements, continuous improvement and optimization of key technologies, there are a number of companies introduced a combination of solar and solar-power LED semiconductor lights.

3.LED emission color

The current mainstream red R, blue B, green G, which is usually to talk about RGB, the three basic colors can be combined into ever-changing colors.

Let us focus on white, white There are two ways, one is the RGB combination, one is coated with phosphor blue light package when implemented in this way are the mainstream, according to the ratio of different phosphors, there can be a lot of colors mainly from warm white to cool white changes. Of course, in the case of some special purpose, as well as infrared and ultraviolet emission LED.



To sum up: LED basic colors are red R, blue B, green G, IR, UV, RGB plus various combinations of colors, namely a variety of white LED phosphors

Role 4.LED power

The basic role of the power supply is a constant current to the LED. Since led lamp beads rated voltage and current is low voltage DC (between 1.8-4V, 20 mA 至 700 mA range), and we except certain lamps, others are direct AC mains input to light lamps, it must have a power supply to the high voltage AC input current is converted to low-voltage direct current led applicable. Even 12V or 24V DC battery input directly, there is full battery voltage is high and the forthcoming state discharged state the problem of low voltage, that is, in other words there will be fluctuations in voltage, voltage fluctuations will affect the life led lamp beads, it must be To apply power. In the selection of the power supply it is important to consider the acceptable power loss.
Keywords: LED RGB color theory is to define what the principle of three-color LED RGB

Color is a property of light, no light there is no color. Under the irradiation of light, people feel the color through the eyes of various objects, color is the combined effect of these characteristics of the human eye and the object objective characteristics. Color television technology is based on visual characteristics of the human eye to transmit and receive color images. Under the irradiation of sunlight, one can see the colorful nature scene. Optical theoretical physics shows that light is an electromagnetic wave in the form of a substance. All can cause human visual reaction called visible light waves, it is the electromagnetic wavelength between 380 ~ 780nm. Not only the human eye can distinguish color brightness size, but also in the color of light intensity is sufficient light can distinguish between colors. Colored light can be used for brightness, hue and color saturation to describe three physical quantities. In the color television, the so-called transfer a color image, the image is essentially a transmission luminance and chrominance. Monochromatic light of different wavelengths can cause a different color feeling, but the feeling is the same color can be derived from a combination of different spectral components. It was found that during mixing: the emergence of a variety of color in nature, almost all can use a three monochromatic light obtained by mixing in different proportions. Three monochromatic light having such characteristics is called the base shade, these three colors called tricolor. Colour is used in the three primary colors red, green and blue. The main reason is the human eye these three colors of light the most sensitive, and the red, green, and blue color mixing can be worthy of adding more color. Trichromatic principle is the decomposition of color, mixing an important principle. This principle is the basis of color television technology, which greatly simplifies the electrical signal to transmit the color of technical problems. According to the principles of the three primary colors, a variety of color we only need to be transferred into red, green, and blue color, and then they become three electrical signals for transmission. At the receiving end, with these three signals can be respectively red, green, and blue light of a color picture tube, you can reproduce the original color image. We now TV, approached look at the screen, you'll find a color image is constituted by a number of red, green and blue three, which is the use of poor resolution of the human eye spatial detail the characteristics of the three basic shade were projected on the same surface red, green and blue phosphors on, because dot pitch is small, the human eye will feel the three primary colors to produce color after mixing. This is the space adding color mixing.

Trichromatic principle

In high school physics class, we might have done the test prism, white light through the prism after being broken down into a variety of colors gradual transition of chromatography, followed by the color red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, and this is the visible spectrum . In which the human eye to red, green and blue is most sensitive to the human eye as the receiver of a three-color system, most of the color can be red, green and blue tricolor synthetically produced in accordance with different proportions. Also the vast majority of monochromatic light can be broken down into red, green and blue shade. This is the most basic principles of colorimetry, ie trichromatic principle. Three primary colors are independent, any kind of color can not have the other two color synthesis. Red, green and blue are the three primary colors, three colors synthesis of the most extensive range of colors. Red, green and blue color added and synthesized according to the different blending ratio called additive mixture.

Red + green = **
Green + Blue = Cyan
Red + blue = magenta
Red + green + blue = white
**, Cyan, magenta, and hue are a mixture of the two together, so they are also known as adding a secondary color. In addition:
Red + blue = white
Green + magenta = white
** = Blue + white
So cyan, **, magenta and red, blue, green complementary color, respectively. Because everyone's eyes for the same monochromatic feel different, so if we mix the three primary colors with the same intensity when, assuming white light intensity of 100%, and this time the subjective feeling is that the brightest green, followed by red, blue weakest.
In addition to adding color mixing addition there subtraction color mixing method. Under white light, cyan pigments absorb red and blue reflection, and reflection ** ** pigment absorbs blue, magenta pigments absorb green and magenta reflection. That is:
White - red = cyan
White - Green = Magenta
White - blue = **
In addition, if the cyan and ** two pigments are mixed under white light illumination, since the pigment absorbs red and blue, while reflecting the green, for mixing paint us as follows:
Pigment (** + cyan) = White - Red - Blue = Green
Pigment (magenta + cyan) = White - Red - Green = Blue
Pigment (** + magenta) = white - green - blue = red
Are subtracted from the above mixing, blending is subtracted to absorb different proportions of three primary colors to form a different color. So there are the cyan, magenta, ** as pigments tricolor. Mixing the three primary colors of pigment widely used in paint, printing. The three primary colors in paint, red, green and blue are called secondary colors or subtract a secondary color pigments. In a secondary color subtraction are:
(Cyan, magenta + ** +) = White - Red - Blue - Green = Black
Color mode with more than the sum represented by mixing three primary colors called RGB mode, and color mode with the subtraction color mixing principle expressed by the three primary colors is called CMYK mode, they are widely used in painting and printing fields.

RGB mode is the most commonly used graphics software color mode, in this mode, image processing more convenient, but, RGB images than CMYK images stored in smaller, you can save memory and space.
CMYK mode is a paint mode, so it belongs to the printing mode, but essentially no difference between the RGB mode, but produce a different color ways. RGB color mixing an additive model, CMYK is subtractive primary color mode. For example, the display uses RGB mode, because the display is a fluorescent material of the electron beam bombardment on the phosphor screen emit light to produce color. When there is no light when black is white when the light is applied to the maximum. The printer does not emit light of its own ink. Thus only use a specific light absorption and reflection of other light colors, so you need to use the subtractive method to resolve.
HLS (hue, lightness, saturation) principle, similar to: RGB LED Rope Light



HLS is Hue (Hue), Luminance (brightness), Saturation (saturation). Hue is an attribute of color, which essentially is the color of the basic colors, that is, we often talk about red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple seven, each of which represents a hue. Adjust the hue is changing its color.
Brightness is the graph of various colors primary colors (RGB image of primary colors such as R, G, B or three from the various hues) of brightness, brightness adjustment is to adjust the brightness. Luminance range from 0 to 255, divided into 256 levels. And we usually talk about grayscale image, that is, between pure white and pure black divided the 256 levels of brightness, that is, from white to gray, sub-black. Similarly, in RGB mode represents a primary color shades, namely red, green and blue shading from light to dark.
Saturation refers to the image color saturation. For standard colors each color has an artificial prescribed saturation is described by a similar degree of color between the physical and the standard color. Saturation adjustment is to adjust the image saturation. When an image saturation strip zero, the image becomes a grayscale image, you can try one on a TV-style buttons to adjust saturation.
There is also a concept that contrast. Contrast is the difference between the different colors. The greater the contrast, the greater the difference between the two colors, on the contrary, the closer. For example, a gray-scale image to increase its contrast will be more black and white, the limit tuned into black and white images, on the contrary, we can get a gray canvas. We understand the principle of color, we would not at a loss in image processing, and for the adjustment of color can also faster and more accurate.

Red, yellow, blue
A: primary color theory
The three primary colors, the so-called primary colors, refers to any of these three colors are not the same color mixing produced by the other two primary colors, while other colors can be mixed out of three colors in accordance with a certain proportion, color science, said these three separate color for the three primary colors.
B: blending theory
Mixed colors mixed into addition and subtraction mixed color also can only take place after mixing into the vision, called the neutral mix.
(A) addition mixed

Addition shade mixing means mixing two or more light mixed together, will increase the brightness, the overall brightness of the mixed color of light is equal to the sum of mixed colored brightness. Shade mixing, the three primary colors are red, green, violet. This three-color light is generated can not be confused with other shade of another. and:

Zhu Hongguang light + green light = **
Green light + light = blue-violet light
Zhu Hongguang = purple violet light + light
** Light, blue light, violet light is between shade.

If only by mixing two shade can produce white light, then the light is two mutually complementary color. For example: red and blue light shade; shade of green and purple light; light violet light with **.

(B) the subtraction mix
Subtraction mixed mainly refers to mixing the pigment.

After the white light through colored filters, part of the light is reflected and absorbed by the rest of the light, reducing the portion of the radiation power is off, but it finally through the dimming light twice, so called subtraction color mixing mixing. In general, transparent and strong dye, mixed with obvious dimming effect.

The three primary colors are mixed subtraction addition complementary color mixing three primary colors, namely: green complementary color red (magenta), blue-violet complementary color yellow (yellow), red complementary color blue (sky blue). In two colors mixed color produce inter-color:

Red + blue = purple

** + Red = Orange

** + Blue = Green

If the two colors can produce gray or black, the two colors is the complementary color. A certain percentage of the three primary colors mixed, the resulting color can be black or dark gray. In subtraction mixing, mixing color, the more low lightness, purity will decline.
(Iii) a neutral mix
Visual color mixing neutral mix is based on the physiological characteristics of the human visual generated, but not change the shade or light emitting material itself, the luminance blending effect neither increase nor reduce, so called neutral mix.
There are two ways visual mix:
A: Color rotary mixing: put two or more colors and placed on a disc, the power to make it through rapid rotation, and see the new color. Color rotary mixing effect in terms of similar hue mixed with the addition of the law, but the brightness is mixed colors mean.
B: Space mix: the juxtaposition of different colors, when they are projected on the retina small to a certain extent, these different colors will be simultaneously stimulating effect on the retina very near the site of the photoreceptor cells, so that the eyes are they are difficult to distinguish them individually, blended colors will produce in vision, this hybrid called space Mixed

What should we attention when we purchase LED ROPE LIGHT?

1.Different luminous of LED is adapted in different occasion and products.For example,a jewelry counter in super mall,it should adapted higher luminous of light to attract the potential customers. But also, it can divided into LED spot light and RGB LED rope light as the same generic terms of decoration light.

2.The ability of antistatic. Longer lifespan it is if the ability of antistatic is higher with higher price.Generally,above 700v is better.

3.The accordance of wavelength and color temperature. It should be attention the accordance when we use combination of LED rope light.

4.We suggest you can use smaller leakage current product when the leakage current is LED reverse conductive.

5.Waterproof. There is difference from indoor LED and outdoor LED Lighting.

6.The beam angle. The beam angle of led has great effect to LED ROPE LIGHT.We also suggest you choose 120V LED ROPE LIGHT as your project using.

7.Chips of LED depends on the core quality of LED, various LED chips sold in this market,foreign brands like CREE, NICHIA or Taiwan brands like EPISTAR etc, but the price is also in huge divide.

8.The quality and luminous of LEDs also depends on the size of LEDs. Prior to choose the bigger chips when you purchase.

Know more about the leakage current of LED ROPE LIGHT : LED is one-way conductive light. If there is reverse current that simple named electric leakage. Damage is immeasurable if electric leakage happen. Cheap price LED ROPE LIGHT adapted cheaper leakage protection to reduce their cost of production.

Identify the chips of LED ROPE LIGHT: the light of LED is chips. Various chips made by various material. Generally speaking, imported chips is in high price with well quality. We suggest every LED purchasing agent should purchase quality LED chips or China brand.

Size of LED chips: the size of the chips calculate with length of side. The bigger size, the higher quality.

Know the glue of LED ROPE LIGHT: Normal LED glue is epikote. Glue with uvioresistant and fire-proofing agent should be used in outdoor LED light even if in higher price.

Know the power cord of LED ROPE LIGTH: According to the design of manufacturer, the power cord can divide into constant current and constant power. Anyway, it is the core whatever we adapted. Generally,the LED rope light is wrong cause by the dead power.

The brightness of LED ROPE LIGHT :The brightness of high power is brighter than the lower.Also the price is more expensive.
The antistatic of LED ROPE LIGHT : Longer lifespan it is if the ability of antistatic is higher with higher price.Generally,above 700v is prefer suit for LED lighting.
The beam angle of LED ROPE LIGHT : Different beam angle of LED is adapted in different occasion and products. Choose the proper beam angle before you purchase.
Know the wavelength : The price of accordance of LED wavelength and color is higher. But we should know the point that it is hard to manufacture pure color LED lighting without LED spectral separation device.So we must choose the standard reliable worth LED manufacturer.

HOW TO IDENTIFY WHETHER THE LED ROPE LIGHT GOOD OR NOT?

Nowadays,LED rope light is essential in house decoration.But you should pay more attention in some factors.
Because of the low barriers to entry, most of individual workshop and factory are manufacture the low led rope light.It leads good and evil goods mixed up in the whole market,more and more inexperience buyer cheated to order big bulk in poor LED rope light.Anyway,it is simple to identify the difference of standard LED rope light and nonstandard LED rope light from the first appearance by the professional technician.

There is various type of LED ROPE LIGHT in this market,but sort out the hot sales are : 12V LED rope light,flexible LED rope light、Outdoor LED rope light、RGB LED rope light120V LED rope light、110V LED rope light and 220V LED rope light.

Now,let’s talk about how can we identify whether the LED ROPE LIGHT good or not from our eyes.

1.Material.Some manufacturer adapted cheaper cooper wire to reduce their manufacture cost like Cooper-clad aluminum,cooper-clad steel.A good strip of cooper wire is flexible to bend instead of pad off. The phenomenon of pad off cause by bend and maintenance in high temperature which we used cheaper LED rope light. So,well material must be used,like the tinned cooper is better in this market nowadays.


2.Package.Standard package of LED rope light adapted antistatic reel packaging. Normal size in every 5 meters or 10 meters a roll and steal with antistatic reel package. But in some individual workshop adapted second-hands roll trays and without antistatic reel package.It is clear that the marks and scratches in the roll trays in order to remove the label by the individual workshop.

3.Label. Label or laser will be printed in the package and roll trays by standard manufacturer. Size or parameters disunity common appear in individual workshop.

4.Accessories: Instruction and specification of LED rope light will be enclosed in the package,in the same time,attach the connector of LED ROPE LIGHT.On the contrary,cheaper LED rope light without all of the necessary attachment in order to reduce the product cost.

The Problem of Worse Flexible LED Rope Light :
1.Nonuniform lighting.This phenomenon common appear in yellow and white LED ROPE LIGHT.
2.Poor solder with LED.LED not perfect solder with FPC base,it leads dead light whole roll or transient luminous.
3.Cooper wire easy to break.
4.Inner core model material. Inner core model material is too thin to connect lead to circuit short by the pin,easy to burnt the LED ROPE LIGHT.
5. Coarse and yellow cover skin.
6.The color not coordinate with its color temperature it marked.
7.Simple package without instruction or accessories.
