How to judge the quality of silicone neon strips
- 1.NEON lamp PCB, some factories are the same as the LED flexible light strip PCB, some are redesigned, and the PCB pad is designed on the back of the PCB. This can increase the pad and make the bonding wire more stable. In addition, And more clearly divided, Cut the area to make the cut more clear.
- 2.Smooth light surface, no dark areas and wrinkles when bending
- 3.High silicone material is uniform, the appearance is delicate and smooth. the toughness and elasticity are very good. The fake silicone products are easily deformed when they are bent, and they are relatively rough to the touch, because there is no layer of grease on the surface of the fake silicone products.
- 4.The silicone raw material is non-toxic and odorless, but the raw material will show a little gel smell when the vulcanizing agent is added through the high temperature oil pressure extrusion molding of the silicone manufacturer. disappear! So no smell is normal! Silicone is better than PVC NEON, resistant to UV and yellowing
How to buy the most cost-effective light strip
- 1. Choose the most cost-effective LED type meet your own needs The cost of LED take a large part of the cost of the entire neon , Therefore, choosing different types of LED has completely different prices, and different brands of LED lamp beads also have different prices.
- 2. Avoid unnecessary product customization
- 3.Avoid customizing the silicone case. The structural design of the silicone shell needs to undergo repeated testing and verification, which requires a lot of research and development costs.
- 4.Avoid customization of special accessories. Special plastic parts need to be opened for production, such as injection molds. Injection mold costs are usually paid by the importer
- 5.NEON has constant current and constant voltage type . If you don’t need to connect in long length, you can choose a constant voltage version. The price will be beter than the constant current version. If some projects require a long connection, you can choose a constant current product, and some constant current NEON can connect in 25 meters, connect the power supply on one side. This will make installation easier and save power costs.
- 6.Neon has front-emitting and side-emitting models. If your project needs to bend the light-emitting surface up and down, you must choose the positive emitting NEON. If your project is to bend the light-emitting surface left and right, you must choose the side-emitting NEON.
- 7.NEON lights have different colors, like white , R/G/B/Y/Pink, Orange,amber, RGB, CCT adjustable, RGBW and so on. You can choose the type you need according to your needs.
- 8. Many silicone NEON on the market do not have DIY soldering-free accessories, have to solder cable when cut it and Also some factory have perfect soldering-free accessories, which can be more convenient for customers to cut and -re-connect.
