An additional benefit of using SMD LED strips is the ability to perform intricate lighting tasks because of their smaller size and a wide range of use-cases. SMD Technology refers to Surface Mounted Device technology, which can directly mount the LED onto a strip allowing for an ultra-slim profile that fits in applications where traditional lighting solutions cannot go. Measuring as small 3.5 mm x 2.8 mm for a 3528 SMD LED, these strips can be readily placed in compact spaces and manipulated around cabinets, walls, or architectural details to offer unmatched design flexibility.
SMD LED strips stand out for their quality in adjusting a diversity of brightness. SMD LEDs can produce 50 to 200 lumens per LED depending on the size of the SMD and type, giving designers versatility in lighting intensity for specific requirements. This means that a 5050 SMD LED strip can produce as much as 900 lumens per meter, being used in task lighting or to light up big areas, while smaller 3528 LEDs are better for ambient types of illumination.
In power efficiency front SMD LED strips could save as much as 80% energy when compared to traditional incandescent or halogen lighting sources. This works great especially in commercial as well as residential places were energy saving is important to keep the operational costs under control. Industry reports indicate that organizations achieved 30% energy savings when integrating SMD LED strips in their lighting designs, which represents a substantial monetary benefit at scale for the power characteristics of large volumes lighting installations.
Another popular SMD LED strip is the USB color change RGB that can be used almost everywhere and has been a favorite of interior designers and architects because ofit's its endless use of colors. RGB SMD LED strips have a much ‘zing’ to them as not only can they change colors on-the-fly but also be controlled via remote or mobile phone app – giving an interactive gloss to lighting design. This flexibility is also why SMD LEDs are a common choice for applications such as events, retail displays, and home theaters—where mood and atmosphere count just as much as bright light. Businesses that utilize RGB SMD LED strip lighting in their retail environments have experienced a greater level of customer engagement, and increased sales by 10% all because of an improvement in aesthetic appeal.
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” — as Elon Musk often states — and that is precisely why SMD LED strips are so popular. While their structure may be very simple, there exists an array of variations and scenarios for this system that traditional approaches to lighting cannot readily provide. Offering the flexibility to meet a wide array of design specifications, our SMD LED Strip lights are perfect for enhancing your space with both bold statement pieces and subtle flashes of light. This is the reason why flash lighting units are an easy choice for people trying to improve their lighting techniques, bring more creativity to their shots with less power consumption.
