1. Controller and remote control
(1)Overview
Whether it is a single-color or colored LED light strip, a convenient control system is extremely critical. The controller and remote control allow you to easily adjust light brightness, color and mode for personalized lighting. Today's smart control systems can also be remotely controlled through mobile applications, adding a sense of technology to the home.
(2) Purchasing suggestions
Monochrome light strip: The single-color light strip can use a simple brightness adjustment controller, which is easy to operate and meets basic needs.
Colored light strips: Choose a controller with functions such as color switching and mode changing.
Intelligent needs: You can choose an intelligent controller that supports mobile phone application control, which can connect to your mobile phone through Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to remotely control the light strip.
Simple and easy to use: For users who are not familiar with the operation of smart devices, traditional physical button controllers are more suitable.
2. Install accessories
(1)Overview
Mounting accessories are essential for the light strip to blend into the space. Such as aluminum alloy light troughs, light strip fixing clips, etc., the light strip can be cleverly embedded in the wall, ceiling or furniture, which not only protects the light strip, but also makes the light softer and more uniform.
(2) Purchasing suggestions
Light Coffers: When shopping for light coffers, consider the size of your light strips to ensure proper installation. Improper size of the light trough will affect the installation effect. For example, for a 5mm wide light strip, it is recommended to use a light trough with an inner diameter of 6-8mm to ensure stable installation and space utilization. Light troughs are commonly used for the installation of neon strips and aluminum light strips.
Light strip fixing clip: When choosing a clip, make sure the width of the clamp is slightly larger than the width of the light strip to ensure that the light strip is securely clamped. For example, for a 10mm wide light strip, a fixing clip with a clamping width of 12-15mm should be used to prevent slipping and ensure stable installation. Generally used in SMD and COB light strips.
3.Light strip connector
(1)Overview
Light strip connectors are indispensable when designing complex lighting layouts. It can connect light strips to expand the lighting range. Choosing high-quality connectors can ensure stable power transmission and avoid connection problems that affect light efficiency.
(2) Purchasing suggestions
When selecting a connector, check whether its port is tight and secure, and ensure there is resistance after inserting the light strip plug to prevent loosening. Check the connector material and choose flame-retardant and high-temperature-resistant materials to reduce the risk of fire caused by excessive current or short circuit and ensure the safety of household electricity.
4.Power supply
(1)Overview
Most LED light strips are low-voltage devices. For example, 5V/12V/24V light strips need to be used with a transformer. The transformer can convert 110V/220V AC power into DC low-voltage power to ensure stable and reliable operation of the light strip.
(2) Purchasing suggestions
Choose the appropriate transformer according to the voltage requirements of the light strip. For example, a 5V light strip needs a 5V output transformer, a 12V light strip needs a 12V transformer, and the input voltage depends on the local household voltage. At the same time, the power and length of the light strip must also be considered to calculate the required current.
