1. Safety:
The 220V voltage used by high-voltage LED strips is dangerous, and there are potential safety hazards in some risky applications; low-voltage LED strips work at DC 12V, which is a safe voltage and can be used in various occasions. There is no danger to the human body.
2. Packaging:
The packaging of high-voltage LED strips and low-voltage LED strips are also very different. High-voltage LED flexible strips can generally achieve 50-100 meters per roll; low-voltage LED strips generally can achieve 5-10 meters per roll; more than 10 meters The attenuation of the DC power supply above the meter will be very severe.
3. Installation:
The installation of high-voltage LED strips is relatively simple, and can be directly driven by a high-voltage driver. Generally, the factory can be configured directly, and the 220V power supply can work normally. The installation of low-voltage LED flexible light strips requires a DC power supply to be installed in front of the light strips, which is relatively complicated during installation.
Fourth, the service life:
The service life of low-voltage LED strips will technically be 50,000-100,100 hours, and the actual use can also reach 30,000-50,010 hours. Because of the high voltage, high-voltage LED strips generate more heat per unit length than low-voltage LED strips, which directly affects the life of high-voltage LED strips. Generally speaking, the service life of high-voltage LED strips is about 10,000 hours.
5. Price:
If you look at the two light strips alone, the price of LED light strips is similar, but the overall cost is different, because high-voltage LED light strips are equipped with high-voltage power supplies, generally a power supply can carry 30~50 meters of LED flexible Light bars, and, relatively speaking, the cost of high voltage voltage is relatively low. The low-voltage LED strip needs to be equipped with an external DC power supply. Generally, the power of a 1-meter 60-bead 5050 strip is roughly 11~14W, which means that each meter of the strip needs to be equipped with a DC power supply of about 15W. The cost of construction will increase a lot, which is much higher than that of high-voltage LED strips. Therefore, from the overall cost point of view, the price of low-voltage LED lamps is higher than that of high-voltage LED lamps.
The difference between the use occasions of LED light strips and the different requirements for light strips can be seen from the analysis, high and low voltage LED light strips have their own advantages and disadvantages, and users need to make reasonable choices according to their different use environments.
