Malio lighting analysis: multi-faceted advantage of LED lighting

With respect to the LED lighting, incandescent bulbs emitting rate of only 5% , and the remaining 95% is converted to heat consumption . And environmentally friendly energy-saving LED lights only turn on the lights when the luminous efficiency , long life , and can also save 90 % power , and more importantly, it does not contain mercury and other toxic substances.

In addition to the right place , the will of the people more determined development of LED lights . Recently, National Development and Reform Commission , Ministry of Science jointly issued the latest " semiconductor lighting energy industry planning ." "Plan " shows that in 2015 , 60W incandescent lamp for general lighting above all eliminated, the market share will drop to below 10% ; energy-saving lamps and other traditional energy efficient lighting products market share stable at around 70% ; LED functional lighting products market share of 20 % or more. The "plan " introduced , so that LED lights with incandescent and other traditional lighting Commander , he also win the first chip.

Extensive use of LED lights

Edison invented the incandescent lamp, lit a long night in a bright , ushering in the history of home lighting . For a long time , incandescent lighting has been playing the role of light . But in 1962, the U.S. General Electric developed the world's first a red LED, 70 's, green, yellow and orange LED succession appeared in the 1980s , the development of new materials GaAlAs , so that the red LED light efficiency of 10 Lm / W, until 1993 Nichia blue LED inputs contributed to the emergence of natural red, yellow , and blue gathered . This represents the outside except incandescent , LED lights can also take on the function , and also applied to a wider range of fields.

Currently, LED is mainly used for information display billboards, traffic lights, traffic signs , commercial lighting, lamps and other lighting and general lighting as well as military medical surgical lights and wisdom lighting. As technology advances and the development of social trends , people still want to give fashion and art LED lights , while fluorescent and incandescent lamps in this area is unmatched .

From fashion and art look to the future development of LED lights

From the perspective of fashion and art , LED lamps also have a greater advantage. LED lamps before is because the color rendering index is low , a lot of places do not use LED lamps , and now color rendering index LED lights is not a problem , but using a solid-state light source , better able to make a fashionable and beautiful look.

Observant people will notice , and now the brand clothing stores, shoe stores, jewelry stores, shopping malls and some bars restaurants, day and night , are so magnificent, even as the daily use of lamps, also joined the art LED lights, which can not but thanks to the clever use of LED lights . More exaggerated , in a fashion clothing store owner to ask the store LED lighting design , he was thrown directly "Now is not selling clothes, light " point of view .
Of course, in the performance when fashion and art items , LED lights has advantages over traditional lighting is also more flexible, but improper use can also cause light pollution , so this point is the designer should consider when in use . However, in the flooded fashion and culture today.

Malio lighting analysis LED lights design applications that is clearly superior than traditional lighting , but also the future development trend of the trend.

Introduction LED strip specifications

A, LED Size: 0603,0805,1210,5050 refers LED strip use light-emitting components bring - LED 's size ( inch / metric ) ,

        The following is a detailed description of these specifications :

0603 : conversion to metric is 1005 , it means that the length of the LED assembly is 1.0mm, the width is 0.5mm. Industry referred to 1005 , it is called Inch 0603 .

0805 : conversion to metric is 2125 , it means that the length of the LED assembly is 2.0mm, the width is 1.25mm. Industry referred to 2125, it is called Inch 0805 .

1210 : conversion to metric is 3528 , it means that the length of the LED assembly is 3.5mm, the width is 2.8mm. Industry referred to 3528 , it is called Inch 1210 .

5050 : This is a metric called, it means that the length of the LED assembly is 5.0mm, the width is 5.0mm. Industry referred to 5050 .

Second, LED lights: 15 lights, 30 lights , 60 LED lights, LED strip is per meter length of the number of pieces of LED components soldered , generally 1210 specifications lights per meter 60 LED, 5050 Specification lights per m 30 LED, there is a special per meter 60 LED. Different number of LED strip prices are different , and this is the price of LED strip distinction is an important factor .

Third, the color temperature : refers to a standard blackbody heating, the temperature rises to a certain extent, starting from the dark red color - light red - orange - white - blue , gradually changing the color of a black body light source and the same , then we will blackbody the absolute temperature is called the color temperature of the light source . Color is not a general assessment of LED strip an indicator , but many foreign customers because the use of the environment, will make a special request . Different color temperature light source , the light color is also different :

Color temperature below 3300K , the light red color cast give a warm feeling ; has solid atmosphere , warm feeling , known as Warm .

Color temperature 3000-6000K is the middle man in this particular hue under no obvious visual psychological effects, there is a refreshing feeling ; so called "neutral" color temperature.

Color temperature exceeds 6000K, light color blue , gives a cool feeling, known as cold color temperature.

Fourth, Brightness : cd ( candela )

The basic unit of luminous intensity , candela is the basic unit of the International System of Units one .

General LED strip different colors have different luminous intensity , commonly used unit is mcd, ie milli candela . The higher the value , the larger the light-emitting intensity , which is brighter. This is the assessment of the brightness of LED lights with important indicator lights with higher brightness requirements more expensive price . This is because the high-brightness LED chip prices expensive , and the brightness is higher, the greater the difficulty package .

Five. Angle:

This refers to the LED strip emitting angle to bring LED components , general use SMD LED, SMD components that are emitting angle of 120 degrees . Emitting angle increases, since astigmatism better, but relative, whose luminous intensity was correspondingly reduced. Viewing angle is small, light intensity is up, but the exposure range will shrink. Therefore, the assessment of LED lights with another important indicator is the light angle . There are now some unscrupulous manufacturers, in order to improve the brightness of light in order to earn higher profits, deliberately light angle decreases, the slightest mistake , they will buy such shoddy components.

Six , voltage: This refers to the input voltage LED strip , commonly used specification is a DC 12V, also some 24V.

Determine the price of LED Strip Light nine major factors

      LED Size: different size specifications of the LED prices are different. As 0603 LED 3528 LED(1210 LED) that the price difference between the larger its; while 1210 and 5050 specifications of the LED prices will differ by one level. LED Strip Light purchasing, do not just focus on price. Should be from the following aspects to comprehensive assessment, in order to buy inexpensive LED Strip Light.

        LED Strip Light used in chip: chip has domestic and Taiwan chip and chip imports (including the United States chips, Japanese chip, Germany chips). Different chips, prices vary widely. Currently the most expensive American chips, followed by Japan and Germany, chip chip, the lowest price of the Taiwan chip, thermal performance slightly worse. Specific uses what chip? To what kind of effect? Before you buy first knew it.

        LED package: sub silicone resin encapsulation and packaging. Resin package price should be cheaper. Others are the same. Silicone encapsulated heat dissipation, so the price is slightly more expensive than the resin package that.

        LED color consistency: At present, there are many packaging factory. There are thousands of large and small, add up, of course, the strength of the strong and weak points. There are many small packaging plant because there is no color separation machine, so regardless of light or color separations, or is outward, so that it is difficult for quality assurance. Spectral separation of the LED without its color consistency is poor, bring lit LED Strip light installed in the rear of the effect is not so good, of course, also the price difference is relatively large.

        LED welding effect: LED strip light the assembly of two kinds of hand soldering and welding machines. Hand soldering iron is used, using the most primitive methods for welding. Such practices into the product first appearance of unsightly (spot size is inconsistent Fuzhou LED electronic display) two electrostatic maintenance measures are not good, a lot of the LED chip is the breakdown, resulting in micro-light when powered on or off phenomenon. With reflow soldering machine for welding, soldering machine is not the same. The products not only look beautiful after welding (spot the same size, joints smooth, no flux residue, LED packaging intact) and will not appear burned chip is static phenomenon. Meanwhile, LED position and orientation are more beautiful. This can be seen directly from the appearance.

        FPC Material: FPC sub-rolled copper and copper two kinds. Bonded cheaper, rolled copper expensive. Bonded Copper pads come off easily when bent, and rolled copper will not. Specific use depends on what kind of material FPC sell themselves to make a decision based on the environment.

        FPC whether through environmental certification, UL certification? LED without patents. Not inexpensive. There are certified and patented more expensive.

        LED Brightness: Different brightness LED prices are different. Normal brightness and brightness of the LED price difference compared poor. Therefore, the time of purchase must clearly know what they need brightness, such talent accurate positioning their products.

        LED color: different color. Price is not the same. Red, green color and the color separation as more difficult, so the price is higher than the price of other colors high; red, yellow, blue and other colors spectrophotocolorimeter relatively easy, and the consistency is better, so the price is slightly cheaper. Special colors such as purple, brown and other colors reasons because its price is the most expensive.

How to buy LED Strip for home decoration

First, note that interior decoration usually selected round 2-wire, flat 3-wire, flat 4-wire LED rainbow tube, so why should we in the home decoration, we recommend you choose LED Strip as decoration light it? Reasons are the following:

1, soft, can be the same as the wire is curled,

2, can be cut and connected

3, the light bulb and the circuit is completely encapsulated in a flexible plastic, insulation, waterproof performance, the use of safety

4, strong weather resistance -20-50 ℃, 5, easy to break, long life, life of up to 80,000 - 100,000 hours

6, easy to produce graphics, text and other shapes;

7, rich colors, color effects and beautiful blue, white, green, yellow, red, orange, warm white, red and blue, purple, colorful.

8, Green & energy, cold light, glare is small. No radiation, no mercury elements, does not emit harmful substances.

9, easy installation. Widely used in home decoration ceiling, light trough.

10, solid color LED strip: current LED strip in red, yellow, blue, green, white and warm white six kinds. Since the value of the light source itself is different, so a variety of colors LED strip' price is different, its rules are the same number of lines and 

lights as LED strip, red and yellow is the lowest price, a little more expensive of blue, green a little more expensive than the blue and white, warm white the most expensive.

Next, introduce a few of the more common devices explanation: color LED strip: As six color of LED for LED strip, so the color is composed of different color LED combination. There are red, yellow, blue and green one kind among second-tier and 

third-tier red and blue kind of four lines are red, yellow, blue and red, green and blue two kinds.

LED strip controller: includes transformers, roughly divided into gradients and transitions, generally used colored LED strip. Access different LED strip controller allows the LED strip different colors according to the law constantly changes, and get 

different lighting effects.

Home decoration LED strip selecting the most important is the choice of colors:

Color choice: should say everyone has his hobby, not stereotyped. But can give you some advice, oh, the general said the ceiling is usually white and other light colors, according to the use of the room, the living room is generally used mostly 

yellow blue, yellow, giving a warm natural feeling, especially in the cold winter, better understand the to. Blue can make your room more explicit, more far-reaching, more content. If you want to festive points, red is a good choice, oh. Other red and 

blue color of the lights, if coupled with the controller, which was action-packed, more to experience the modern romantic atmosphere, huh. Restaurants should use yellow is appropriate. Study, children's room should use yellow color. A room in a 

tone as well.

Concluded that under the LED strip wholesale purchase Note: Prior to choose the color and quantity lot longer, with lights should be avoided convergence. Avoid unnecessary waste.

Lights in meters calculated. That every one meter or two meters of a unit cell can not be cropped. As lights with this feature, so the measurement of LED strip usage, please note that you want to select the entire whole meter or a length of 2 m. One 

unit mark scissors mouth. Please be sure to mark the top of the mouth with scissors cutting accuracy.

LED strip power is very small, about 3-5W / m, so the ratio T4/T5 to energy efficient and more able to adapt to different ceiling shapes.

Round LED strip with brightness than the flat is small, but the price is cheap, you buy time to think clearly.

Share the basic knowledge of LED Strip

Malio Lighting comments that LED strip is named  LED Strip, LED rope, LED flexible strip, LED strip light. Although it is called inconsistent, but they are referring to the same kind of products, consumers who do not because they are friends of different names generated doubts.

LED Strip mean refers to the strip of LED assembly in FPC (flexible printed circuit board) or PCB hard board, their general model about 3528,3020,5050 wait so several common types.

Not familiar with LED Strip a friend a few numbers above may not understand the meaning, it refers to other LED Strip bring the size of the LED. 1210: conversion to metric is 3528, it means that the length of the LED element is 3.5mm, the width is 

2.8mm. Industry referred 3528.5050: This is the metric is called, it means that the length of LED components 5.0mm, the width is 5.0mm. Industry referred to 5050.

The quantity of LED for LED Strip: 30 LED, 48 LED, 60 LED, 120 LED is LED strip per meter length of weld how many pieces of LED components, generally 1210 specifications lights per meter 60 LED, 5050 Specifications lights per meter 30 LED, 

there is a special per meter 60 LED.

LED Strip with a color temperature: refers to a standard blackbody heating, the temperature rises to a certain extent, starting from the dark red color - light red - orange - white - blue, gradually changing the color of a black body light source and the 

same, we will - the absolute temperature of the blackbody is called the color temperature of the light source. LED Strip warm white color temperature is generally divided into (2200K-3500K or so), white (4000K-6000K or so), cool white (6500K or 

more) of several different races are not the same color temperature adaptability, such as Europe and the United States people prefer cool white warm LED Strip.

LED Strip with prices affect the main factors: LED Strip with the price depends on the materials used and the production process, such as the use of the LED chips, LED glue, LED welding technology and so on.

LED Strip on the market with a price disparities, consumers in the purchase price is not blind to distinguish the product from the good and bad. Take waterproof, although not waterproof waterproof product than the price to be high, but if household 

words, can choose not waterproof LED Strip, so right product is the best choice.

The Proper Way of Using LED Strip Lights

Malio Lighting said that as a new generation of lighting tools, LED strip lights have made great efforts to convenient our life. They are not only energy saving, but they are much greener than other lighting tools. But when we enjoy the convenience of LED strip lights 

bring to us, we also have to pay attention to the proper way of using LED strip lights
Requirements for LED strip are dependant in different requirements for different occasions and different LED products. For example, if we put the LED lights jewelry counter in a large shopping market, we will have to enhance the brightness. After 

all, the higher light they are, the more attractive they are. And for decoration, there are two kinds of products of lighting, the LED neon lights and LED string light.
The ability of Antistatic: the much stronger antistatic ability they has, the much longer service life they can enjoy , but the price will be higher. Usually, the best antistatic is at  700 V above.
If the wavelength and color temperature of LED strip lights is consistent, their color will be consistent as well, the mass combined lights and lanterns are particularly important. What’ more, the same lights don't produce too much inside off color. 
The leakage current is the current of when led reverse conductive. So we suggest you use the LED strip with small leakage current small bit of LED products.
The ability of Waterproof, the requirement for Waterproof ability is same no matter in the indoors or outdoor.
The size of LED chip  also decided  the quality and brightness of LED strip lights, thus, we'd better choose a larger chip, but the price also have a difference.
LED strip lights adopt the high thermal conductivity 6063 aluminum, the appearance of them is high-grade beautifully, and the light source use the import purui chip 5050 patch LED. They are widely used in jewelry display, house villa lighting, 

market, hotel, office building and leisure place. It is the ideal replacement to instead of traditional fluorescent tubes ideal lamps.
