What is the difference between 3528 and 2835 LED?

SMD 2835 Chips look very much like 3528 chips, but they use newer technology and are typically much more efficient. This means that for equivalent power, they can be much, much brighter. They’re smaller than the 5050 chips (2.8mm x 3.5mm). They make the ultimate in task lighting and even work lighting.

Are SMD LEDs good?

Although a COB LED is efficient, an SMD LED has an even greater level of efficiency. That’s because more lumens are produced per watt. In other words, you’ll receive more light with less wattage. An SMD LED also produces a broader light beam, which means the light doesn’t need as large of a heat sink as a COB LED does.

Which is better COB or SMD?

SMDs are more efficient than COBs because the light source produces higher lumens per watt, which means that they produce more light with a lower wattage. They produce a wider beam of light which is spread over a greater area.

Do LED light strips need to be plugged in?

The first thing we should note about these lights is that all electricity needs to have an outlet to work correctly. So yes, led strip lights do need to be plugged in. They also require some power source like batteries or solar panels, meaning there’s no way around using electricity either way!

How wide is 2835 LED strip?

Length: 16.4 ft = 5 m. Width: 0.2 in = 5 mm. Height: 0.08 in = 2 mm. LED spacing: 0.66 in = 16.7 mm.

What is the difference between 2835 and 5050?

As mentioned above the 2835 SMDs can produce 360 to 720 lumens of light per meter of the light strip, depending on the LED density, however, the 5050 LED strip can produce up to a 1000 lumens per meter of light. This makes it perfect for lighting larger spaces like airports, hospitals, warehouses, factories, and more.

What does SMD type mean?

SMD means surface mounted diode. This is a better technology than the first generation DIP LEDs. The SMD type LEDs are mounted on an aluminum substrate and enveloped in an epoxy resin.
