Is 5050 LED strip addressable?
The most common types of SMD are: 3528, single colour, non-addressable, very low power; 5050, containing three LEDs allowing for RGB and addressable strips as well as higher power levels; 2835, a newer single-color SMD having the same surface dimensions as the 3528 but a larger emitter area and a thinner design with an …
What does 5050 mean for LED strips?
Simply put, these LED chips are called SMD 5050 because the dimensions of the chips are 5.0mm x 5.0mm. They have 3 LED diodes in one housing (sometimes called tri-chips), and are a lot brighter than individual 3528 LED chips.
Can any LED Strip be addressable?
Addressable LED strips come in 3 voltage varieties; 5V, 12V, or 24V. Ideally, the higher the voltage, the better. However, if the voltage is higher even with resistance, there is enough left to power the LEDs as needed. Not all addressable LED types are available in high voltages.
How much power does a 5050 LED strip use?
The 5050 regular density LED light strip is listed at two watts per foot, so for thirty feet of light, you’ll be drawing sixty watts of power, and as it just so happens, we’ve got sixty watt power supplies!
How many lumens is a 5050 SMD LED?
360 lumens
On SMD LED lights, lumens are simply calculated per chip. Larger 5050 SMD LED chips are rated at 15 lumens per chip. Our most common 5050 bulb uses 24 chips, so its calculated lumen output is 360 lumens (15 x 24 = 360 lumens).
What is the brightest addressable LED strip?
SMD (Surface Mounted) 5730 series is the brightest LED strip because it contains powerful LEDs that can create a lot of light.
How many 5050 LED strips can you connect together?
You can connect up to 2 16ft 5050 ribbons. If you do more the lights become dimmer. With 60 watts you have to take into account that each foot of LEDs use ~2 watts.
Which is better RGB 2835 or 5050?
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.
