facToRs:
the degree of water protection,

which is expressed with an Ip rating.
the voltage of the LeD. generally,
•
a 12V voltage is considered a safe
low voltage and therefore it is widely
used. an LeD strip with a voltage of
24V has the advantage that the same
wire diameter can span a greater
distance between the power supply
and your LeD strip.
the choice of an LeD strip also
•
depends on the number of LeDs on
an LeD strip. the more LeDs, the
less visible distinctive light spots and
the better the light distribution. this
can be useful for indirect lighting
over a small distance between the
strip and the illuminated area, but is
unimportant with greater distances.
the overall intensity of the LeD
•
matters too. It is directly proportional
to the number of dies or LeD chips
on an LeD strip. this is not to be
mistaken for the number of LeDs. a
type 3528 LeD has got 1 die per LeD
and a type 5050 LeD has got 3 dies
per LeD. theoretically this means a
type 5050 LeD produces three times
the light a type 3528 does.
