LED Light Strip Classification

LED light strips are generally divided into two types: flexible LED light strips and LED hard light strips, but generally also include old-style LED light strips connected to circuit boards with wires, such as flat three-wire 4.3W/m, flat four-wire 6.48W/m, flat five-wire 8.64W/m light strips, etc.
1. Flexible LED light strips use FPC as the assembly circuit board and SMD LEDs for assembly, so that the thickness of the product is only 0.1CM and does not take up space; the general specifications are 30cm long 18 LEDs, 24 LEDs and 50cm long 15 LEDs, 24 LEDs, 30 LEDs, etc. There are also 60cm, 80cm, etc., and different users have different specifications. And it can be cut at will, and it can be extended at will without affecting the light emission. The FPC material is soft and can be bent, folded, and wound at will. It can be moved and stretched in three-dimensional space without breaking. It is suitable for use in irregular places and places with small spaces. Because it can be bent and wound at will, it is suitable for any combination of various patterns in advertising decoration.
2. LED hard light strips use PCB hard boards as assembly circuit boards. LEDs are assembled with SMD LEDs or with direct-plug LEDs. Different components are used depending on the needs. The advantage of hard light strips is that they are easier to fix, and are convenient to process and install; the disadvantage is that they cannot be bent at will and are not suitable for irregular places. Hard light strips use SMD LEDs in many specifications, including 18 LEDs, 24 LEDs, 30 LEDs, 36 LEDs, 40 LEDs, etc.; those using direct-plug LEDs have different specifications, including 18, 24, 36, 48 LEDs, and some are frontal and some are side-lit. The side-lit ones are also called Great Wall light strips.
