Low-voltage LED flexible light strips compete with high-voltage LED flexible light strips
LED light strips are often used to outline the outline of various buildings, construct large-scale lighting patterns, various interior decorations, residential areas, home beautification and other lighting decorations. According to the difference between the use occasions of LED flexible light strips and the different requirements for flexible light strips, there are two types of high-voltage LED flexible light strips and low-voltage LED flexible light strips. Also known as DC light strips, so what is the difference between these two LED flexible light strips, what are the advantages and disadvantages between the two, and how should we choose when purchasing? Detailed introduction:
1. Safety: The 220V voltage used by the high-voltage LED flexible light strip is a dangerous voltage, and there are potential safety hazards in some risky applications; the low-voltage LED flexible light strip works under the working voltage of DC 12V, which is a safe voltage and can be applied In all cases, there is no danger to the human body.
2. Installation: The installation of the high-voltage LED flexible light strip is relatively simple, and it can be driven directly by a high-voltage driver. Generally, the factory can be configured directly, and the 220V power supply can be connected to work normally. The installation of low-voltage LED flexible light strips requires a DC power supply to be installed in front of the light strips, which is relatively complicated during installation.
3. Price: If you look at the two kinds of flexible light strips alone, the price of LED flexible light strips is similar, but the overall cost is different, because high-voltage LED flexible light strips are equipped with high-voltage power supplies, generally a power supply can With 30~50 meters LED flexible light bar, and relatively speaking, the cost of high voltage voltage is relatively low. The low-voltage LED soft light strip needs to be equipped with an external DC power supply. Generally, the power of a 1 meter 60-bead 5050 soft light strip is roughly 12~14W, which means that each meter of the soft light strip needs to be equipped with a DC power supply of about 15W. The cost of flexible light strips will increase a lot, which is much higher than that of high-voltage LED flexible light strips. Therefore, from the perspective of the overall cost, the price of low-voltage LED flexible light strips is higher than that of high-voltage LED flexible light strips.
4. Packaging: The packaging of high-voltage LED flexible light strips and low-voltage LED flexible light strips are also very different. High-voltage LED flexible light strips can generally achieve 50~100 meters per roll; low-voltage LED flexible light strips generally achieve 5~100 meters per roll. 10 meters/roll; the DC power supply more than 10 meters will be attenuated greatly.
5. Service life: The service life of the low-voltage LED soft light strip will technically be 50,000-100,000 hours, and the actual use can also reach 30,000-50,000 hours. Because of the high voltage, the high-voltage LED soft light strip generates a lot more heat per unit length than the low-voltage LED soft light strip, which directly affects the life of the high-voltage LED soft light strip. Generally speaking, the high-voltage soft light strip has a service life of about 10,000 hours.
