FAQ

What Is the Lifespan of a Strip Light?

The lifespan of a Strip Light is usually between 30,000 and 50,000 hours. This means that with about 8 hours of use per day, the light strip can continue to work for about 10 to 17 years. High-quality LED chips and excellent manufacturing processes ensure that the Strip Light can maintain stable brightness and color performance during long-term use.

Factors that affect the lifespan of a Strip Light include the use environment (such as temperature and humidity), power supply stability, and installation method. To extend the lifespan of the light strip, it is recommended that it be installed in a suitable environment and that a power supply that meets the specifications be used.

In addition, avoiding frequent switching and ensuring good heat dissipation design can also help extend the lifespan of the Strip Light, providing you with a long-lasting and reliable lighting solution.

What Is the Difference Between a Strip and a Tape Light?

Strip Lights are usually rigid or semi-flexible circuit boards embedded with multiple LEDs, designed to be mounted on surfaces such as ceilings, walls, or furniture. They offer a variety of colors, brightness, and control functions, suitable for functional and decorative lighting.

In contrast, Tape Light is softer and thinner, with a strong adhesive backing, which makes it easy to stick on a variety of surfaces, including irregular shapes. They are mainly used for decorative lighting, emphasizing easy installation and flexible location, suitable for projects that require complex or customized lighting layouts.

How Do You Install Strip Light Correctly?

Planning and measuring: First, determine the installation location of the Strip Light, use a tape measure to accurately measure the required length, and ensure that the light strip can cover the target area.

Prepare the surface: Clean the installation surface, and ensure it is dust-free and dry so that the light strip adhesive can be firmly attached.

Cut and connect: Cut the Strip Light according to the measured length (cut only at the mark), use connectors or welding tools to connect multiple sections of light strips, and ensure that the electrical connection is stable.

Fix the light strip: Remove the adhesive protective layer on the back, stick the Strip Light smoothly in the predetermined position, and press lightly to ensure that it is firmly attached.

Connect the power supply: Connect the light strip to the power adapter, ensure that the power supply meets the voltage and power requirements of the light strip, and then test whether the light is working properly.

Is Strip Light Waterproof?

Yes, our products are made of high-quality materials and undergo rigorous waterproof testing to ensure that they can be used in various wet or outdoor environments.

Depending on different application requirements, we provide a variety of waterproof levels, including IP20, IP65, and IP68. IP65-rated Strip Light is suitable for indoor environments with a certain degree of humidity, such as kitchens and bathrooms, while IP68-rated Strip Light is particularly suitable for outdoor or extremely humid environments.

These waterproof designs ensure that Strip Light can effectively prevent the intrusion of water vapor and dust, extend product life, and maintain stable lighting effects.

How Do I Choose a Strip Light?

When choosing a strip light, you should consider many aspects, such as:

Color and dimming function: Choose single or multi-color, and consider whether dimming is required.

Waterproof level: Choose the appropriate IP level according to the installation environment.

Power supply type: Make sure the voltage of the Strip Light matches the power supply.

LED density and brightness: Choose the appropriate number and brightness of LEDs according to your needs.

Size and cutability: Measure the installation area and choose a cuttable Strip Light.

Installation method: Choose a Strip Light with a self-adhesive back or one that requires additional fixing.

Heat dissipation performance: Choose a light strip with a good heat dissipation design to extend its life.

Compatibility: Make sure the light strip is compatible with the controller or smart system.

After considering these factors, you will have a certain understanding of these lamps and can better choose a Strip Light that suits your needs.
