Differences Between Sleeve, Epoxy Coated, and Bare LED Strips

Sleeve LED Strip:
- Protection: The LED strip is enclosed in a silicone sleeve.
- Water Resistance: Offers rain resistance.
- Waterproof Rating: IP67 (can withstand immersion in water for a limited time).
- Applications: Suitable for outdoor use, where protection from rain and UV exposure is required.
Epoxy Coated LED Strip:
- Protection: The LED strip is coated with high-transparency epoxy resin.
- Water Resistance: Provides moisture-proof and splash resistance.
- Waterproof Rating: IP65 (protection against water jets but not immersion).
- Applications: Ideal for indoor and outdoor use where exposure to dust, moisture, or light splashes is possible.
Bare LED Strip:
- Protection: The LED beads are exposed without any coating.
- Water Resistance: Not waterproof.
- Waterproof Rating: None (exposed components can be damaged by water).
- Applications: Best for dry indoor environments where no direct exposure to moisture or water is expected.

Key Features

Each LED is controlled by an individual IC chip, forming a loop. The controller manages the IC chip to control the circuit on the FPCB board, enabling various lighting effects such as chasing, flowing, running, color-changing, breathing, strobing, clockwise/anticlockwise running effects, simulated lightning, and more.

Flexible Cutting and Soldering: Each LED operates as an independent loop, allowing for easy cutting and soldering without disrupting the circuit. This flexibility enables customization to any required length for the LED strip.

Applications

Home Decor: Enhance colorful home lighting, DIY corridor and staircase lighting, windows, and more.
Commercial Use: Ideal for hotel decoration, theaters, KTV bars, stage lighting, clubs, festivals, and shopping malls.
Architectural Lighting: Perfect for building lighting, arches, crown bridges, edge lighting, safety lighting, and emergency lighting.
Signage and Advertising: Widely used for illuminated signage, backlighting for letters, and advertising displays.
Model and Vehicle Decoration: Suitable for automotive and airplane model lighting, contour lighting, or border lighting.
