You have probably heard of an LED strip light and how it is used. The strip light in layman’s language is a strip or cord populated with lighting bulbs of single or multiple colors. The strip can be as long as 5 meters and can be cut short to an inch long. When thinking about the double row LED strip, think of 2 parallel streams of bulbs in one strip, making it more efficient. Here are advantages if you would like to know if the double row led strip lighting is right for you.

1.Durability

LED strips are made with a material comprising polyimide, which covers the layer of copper meant for the circuit board. Polyimide is a durable and flexible material that is heat resistant. The copper is coated with three polyimide layers, making the LED strip more durable and robust to handle regular bends and normal wear and tear.

2.Environmentally Friendly

The double row LED strip is environmentally friendly in that it saves energy in consuming less power. It receives a direct current of just 12 volts, the same as a single row LED strip making high energy efficient.

The material used in making the strip is recyclable too. Polyimide is known to hydrolyze faster than regular plastic, and this makes it a more efficient material to use in making the strips. It makes the double row LED strip light to reduce environmental pollution and destruction.

3.Safe for Family Use

For families looking for safer light for projects, then installing LEDs is one of those DIY projects. The Direct Current of 12 volts makes it safer to handle since the human body can handle 50 volts. 

The double row strip becomes safer to handle without the risk of electrocution. Children can also handle the strips easily with supervision from parents, of course.

4.More Lighting

As the name suggests, it’s a double row LED strip. This means it produces more light. If you’ve seen a single row LED strip light, then you know how bright a double row LED can be.

The double row led light strip produces 119 watts more than the single row LED strip. If you are looking to get more Lighting, it’s a no brainer to use it.

5.Easy to Install

LEDs require adhesive to install. This principle of application makes it appealing and easy to set up. You do not need any specific skill to stick these adhesive ropes to the right places.

6.Affordable

LED strips are affordable compared to other means of decorating as far as Lighting is concerned. The double row strip is cheaper than installing a new chandelier in the room or getting new bulbs or lamps to use in the room.

Final Thoughts

Doubled row LED strips are an essential consideration when buying LED strips. From it being more environmentally friendly to other means of adding Lighting to being safer for family use, makes it the better choice for most people. Most adults enjoy spending time with their families, and children enjoy doing projects with their parents. What better way to do so than with some LED strips and have some fun decorating the house?

The LED manufacturers are still dominating the lighting industry, with more users choosing this lighting option over the remaining in the marketing segment. More homeowners are even delving into the applications of new LED tube lights with a focus on how to choose the best. With that said, selecting the right type of LED light for every part of your home comes with its challenges. Not only does every room have its personality but needs. Therefore, it would only be fair to select the perfect lighting for a room.  In this article, we highlight key considerations for choosing an LED tube light.

• Color Temperature

In the past, LEDs majorly produced blue light. This is compared to the conventional dull yet bluish lighting of approximately 2000K temperatures. Over the years, manufacturers have created improved versions of LED tube lights to come up with a warm yet white LED lighting for different rooms. For that reason, you can always choose LED lighting that has a preferred color temperature. As technology continues to evolve, manufacturers are inclined towards producing the best-LED bulbs not only for commercial but home uses.

• Kitchen Lighting

Your kitchen is one of the highly visited areas in the house. Therefore, you need to install a reliable lighting piece. Consider investing in an edgy neon light from the LED Company. You can mount these tubes on the cabinets as well as counters. You may also pick a fixture that has a relatively dimmable feature. That way, you can adjust it depending on your needs. Your LED tube bulbs will also be a preferred selection for the corridor space. They will bring a lively light, which is usually bright for the early hours you will be in the kitchen.

• A Look At Efficiency

The efficiency of your bulb refers to how well it can serve you in the long run. Can the tube light illuminate your room to the standards you will require? Well, manufacturers across the world have claimed to produce efficient bulbs. But, many have also invested in substandard materials that do not have the capabilities of offering excellent services in the end. To choose a reliable LED lighting bulb, you need to factor inefficiency. Here, you should use your senses in comparing the effect of different bulbs on your rooms. Consider weighing in on the unique features of the LED light bulbs before selecting the best option. Ask yourself how much a light bulb can illuminate into your room.

• The Output Of Heat

 Your LED tube light offers some heat every time it is on, of course. For that reason, you should consider the amount of heat produced every time it illuminates the room. Your choice of an LED bulb is highly reliant on this factor. A compact lamp like a miniature spotlight can receive a slightly reasonable warm effect. This implies that you can use a small LED bulb to light a large room.  

Take-Home

As the LED lighting world continues to develop into an international landscape, more consumers are convinced to purchase tube-like bulbs. Not only are they efficient but affordable too. To choose the right LED bulb, you need to be familiar with the methods of selection. We have provided you with the relevant information to use in this article.

You may be interested in upgrading a table lamp or perhaps a floor or ceiling light in one or more rooms of your home. However, with the recent national financial events, you might need to postpone the upgrade for awhile. There are some really good buys available, but still you might need to reconsider a purshcase. If that is the case then you might be interested in keeping older lamps in good repair. Here are a few tips:

Among the things that we do know about electricity is that faulty electrical system is almost always the cause of fire and injuries whether in commercial or residential infrastructures. This means that even at the first sign of electrical problems, have them fixed immediately, before things lead to a more serious problem.

However, you have to remember that with any electrical repairs, it always remains as one of the most risky tasks no matter how experienced you are. Therefore, you have to have the skills and knowledge to do the job, use the right tools, and most importantly observe safety measures before you start any electrical project.

Given that, you must turn off the circuit breaker before you start any electrical job. To make sure you have turned off the right breaker, use a voltage tester and if the light on the tester doesn’t lit up, that means the wire isn’t live and that you are ready to begin your job.

To avoid electrical problems such as electrocution or fire in your home, make sure to be vigilant for any potential electrical hazards. Don’t forget to keep your appliances away from water, check for correct wattage light bulbs, and check the insulation on a cord.

Additionally, see to it that there is a regular electrical inspection in your home. In order to determine the last electrical inspection date, check the door and cover of your electrical panel as these are the places where stickers with a date, signatures or initials are found.

It is always advised that you let any electrical repairs done by professional electrician no matter how simple the job may be. Do not take any risks especially if you are inexperienced when it comes to electrical problems as it is, again, a very dangerous job. If you ever decide to hire an electrical contractor in your area, make sure to choose the one that is qualified and licensed to do the job.

We love being in a technology-driven industry because new developments are being made each day. It brings us great pride that we work closely with the supplier of the Knightsbridge brand who are very forward thinking when it comes to new advancements, resulting in some pleasant surprises both to ourselves and to our customers.

If you can’t already tell, we are passionate about LED lighting here at LED Lightworld. LED bulbs are energy efficient, long lasting and just as bright as their traditional or halogen counterparts. Because of their small size, ideas like LED flex have become a reality. This nifty development in interior lighting may be worth considering if you are looking at illuminating the inside of a display cabinet or cupboard. It is provided on a reel with an adhesive backing, meaning that a successful installation thankfully comes with minimum effort. One important consideration is to plan where your cabling and related accessories are going to sit; not only is safety paramount, but placing cables in plain sight does tend to lose the magic somewhat. If you are concerned about safety, rest assured that the LED flex has a remarkably low operating temperature, which might help with regards to your decisions on placement.

So where can LED flex be used? The pleasant, ambient light is incredibly versatile. We have already discussed cabinet lighting, some of our customers report stunning results when installed underneath upper kitchen cabinets, with the flex shining down onto the worktop. Cupboard space above the flex allows for the cabling to be hidden, and added visibility on worktops is always a bonus. Some lines of LED flex are compatible with colour changing accessories, which make this and our other LED colour change products ideal for use in sensory rooms for those with special needs; or simply a kids’ bedroom or playroom with a funky twist.

Our top pick for cool kitchen connoisseurs is the range of pop-up power sockets. The kitchen is one room in the house where room is most likely to come at a premium; the creators of the Knightsbridge brand know this all too well. Pop-up power stations are an interesting and practical solution. They have a small, sleek, round profile on the counter surface when not in use, and can be extended with ease revealing 3x standard 3-pin power sockets. Because the pop-up fitting requires a space to retract into, the placement of such a device will have to be carefully thought out. It may be a case of weighing up the ideal placement for socket usage against the potential loss of a little cupboard space. You will also have to consider the space above the installation, taking into consideration how far up the fitting stands when extended. Will it be too tall to extend fully considering the placement of existing cupboards?

Don’t let this dissuade you, especially if you use a lot of handheld devices, are a lover of music, or both; we carry a version of our pop-up socket installation with 2x USB charging sockets (5V DC 2.1A), and a bluetooth enabled 2W RMS speaker (featuring a 3.5mm audio socket for devices without bluetooth connectivity), as well as 2x 3-pin power sockets. Any static wall-mounted desk or worktop with a thickness of 14-50mm, which is located in a place where sockets are required but space is scarce, can benefit from a pop-up installation

So if you are looking for something that fills a specific niche or just something a little quirky, LED Lightworld have you covered. Take time to peruse our ranges, you might just find some unusual gems that we haven’t mentioned here. Happy browsing!

Nowadays many devices use the USB port in order to connect to anything, including when it comes to charging the battery. Having a wall plate with at least one USB plug socket included, will give you the ability to charge your smartphone, tablet, camera and any other such device which uses a USB port. This way you will no longer need multiple adapters, and the USB socket from the socket outlet plate will provide a dedicated feed to recharge your device.

You first need to turn off the power, then replace the old unit with the new, keeping note of cable markings for live, neutral and earth. Installing the new one should be quite straightforward but if not you can simply follow the product’s instructions on how to install it correctly. If in doubt consult your local electrician. Your new plate with at least one USB plug socket will now allow you to charge all your devices while also leaving the other sockets available for regular use.
