How to install LED light strips to make them more advanced? How to avoid pitfalls? Shenzhen Jomo Lighting shares practical tips! 1

1. The secret of high-end light strip installation
(1). "Seeing the light but not the light" is the core:
· Pre-buried installation is the first choice: The ceiling, wall, and cabinet are grooved in advance (depth ≥15mm), and special profiles (aluminum groove + PC diffuser) are embedded, so that the light is uniform and soft without graininess.
· Concealed installation: Use furniture structure (behind the layer board, above the skirting, under the bed), curtain box and other locations to hide the lamp body, leaving only the halo.
(2). Corner processing should be delicate:
· Use special soft light strips or flexible PCB light strips, the arc is natural and smooth, and avoid hard bending to damage the lamp beads.
· Accurately measure and cut at the corners (look for the scissors logo), match with seamless connectors to eliminate breakpoints and dark areas.
(3). Continuous light effect without dark areas:
· Is the length of a single light strip not enough? Be sure to use light strips of the same brand and specification + special connectors/connecting cables to ensure stable voltage and current and consistent light color and brightness.
· Reserve 20% margin for power supply power to avoid overload, heating and light decay.
(4). Details determine success or failure:
· Clean the base surface: Make sure the installation surface is clean, dry and oil-free before pasting to ensure that the adhesive is firm.
· Hide the driver: Plan the power supply location in advance (such as air conditioning inspection port, cabinet) to ensure beauty and safety.
· Debug color temperature and brightness: Debug uniformly after installation to ensure the overall light effect is harmonious and unified.

2. Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls in LED Light Strip Purchase
(1). Chip brand is the key: Look for chips from international manufacturers such as Bridgelux, Cree, Seoul Semiconductor, or domestic first-tier brands such as Sanan and Huacan, to ensure quality and light efficiency.
(2). Pay close attention to the light efficiency parameters:
· Color rendering index (CRI/Ra): Ra≥90 for home lighting and Ra≥95 for commercial spaces (such as jewelry and clothing stores), as the colors are realistic and full. Jomo Lighting's high-end light strips generally have a Ra of ≥95.
· Luminous flux (lm/m): The higher the value, the brighter it is. Choose 60-120lm/m for home atmosphere and 120lm/m or above for key lighting/commercial scenes.
· Color temperature (K): 2700K-3000K warm yellow for warmth, 4000K for natural comfort, and 6000K for cool white for freshness. Select products with a color tolerance of SDCM≤5 to ensure that there is no color difference in the same batch.
(3). Quality and safety:
· Substrate material: Double-sided copper clad (FPC) is preferred, which has good heat dissipation and long life. Colloid potting is waterproof and dustproof and more durable.
· Certification mark: Must pass CE and RoHS certification, safe and environmentally friendly. For waterproof requirements, choose IP65 and above.
· Warranty period: Shenzhen Jomo Lighting provides an industry-leading 3-5 year warranty to ensure quality confidence.
