Lighting has become indispensable in modern society. The atmosphere and ambiance of different spaces can be reflected through lighting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Want to add LED lighting to your space, light brightness is a very important point worth your consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We usually use the light seen by the naked eye to measure the brightness of the LED strip lights. But actually, it has a more professional method to calculate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High brightness has always been one of the characteristics of LED light strips. It is enough to illuminate your place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As shown in the picture below, a large office area is illuminated by LED strip lighting. The LED strips are installed in the suspended aluminum channels, hanging from the ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as you can see, it does not use other additional lighting as a supplement. All this indicates that the LED strip lights are bright enough.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Importance Of LED Brightness<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Brightness plays a big role in how your lighting feels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After finishing work or long hours of exertion, we often need an environment that can let us relax and relieve fatigue. At this time, warm and comfortable light is what we need, it makes us feel relaxed and at ease. On the contrary, if you walk into a room with harsh lights, trust me, you won’t feel very good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are always looking for proper lighting for the activities we are doing at the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we focus on our work, we need bright lights to keep us focused and see more details. And in places like bars and KTV, dim light is often better for entertainment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On any product page of LED light strip suppliers, we will see a variety of LED strip parameters, but never see a specific brightness value. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is because the brightness of LED lights depends on many factors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Wattage<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In the days of incandescent light bulbs, we used wattage to measure the brightness of light. A higher wattage meant a brighter brightness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, however, wattage more accurately refers to how much energy the lamp needs to consume. A LED lamp with a higher wattage may not be as bright as it could be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A 40-watt incandescent light bulb produces roughly 450 lumens. While 450 lumens of a LED light strip only needs 3.5W. 3.5W LED strip light lumens is exactly equal to a 40W incandescent light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And we can also learn that LED light strips do save energy, so you can reduce your electricity bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 foot of 3.5W light strip = a 40W incandescent = 450 lumens<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Lumen<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Today, many designers and architects often use lumens, rather than watts, when measuring how much light is needed to illuminate the space. Lumen can be equated to brightness. The higher the lumen, the brighter the LED strip is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can refer to the lumen output per foot or per meter to choose a strip light as a way to adequately illuminate your room or other larger place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LED Light Efficiency<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

LED luminous efficiency refers to how many lumens a strip lighting can produce by consuming one watt of energy. A LED lights strip that produces more lumens per watt is what we call a high efficiency LED strip. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, high efficiency LED strip lights are brighter than regular strip lights. They can produce 130 to 190 lumens per watt<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

LED light efficient = lumen \/ wattage<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lights strips should not be all about brightness either. LED lights strips working at high currents can generate too much heat, which then leads to damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For higher brightness, match with the proper current design, such as constant current design (the current flowing through each LED is constant), to keep them in the best thermal management condition, and to ensure the life of the LED strip lighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warning: Beware of the words with the brightest LED strip lights. Using inferior LEDs, even if it achieves bright light for a while, is not a long-term solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Color Temperature<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The level of light color temperature affects your perception of lighting color and space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LED color temperature is expressed in CCT (correlated color temperature), which is used to describe the color of white light only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The kelvin color temperature goes from low to high, the LED color goes from warm to cold, and the light brightness goes from dark to bright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
