![]() ![]() 5050 chips are typically 3 times as bright as 3528 chips. SMD 5050 Chips are just barely behind the 3528 chips in popularity. You can shop our selection of Luma5 strips here. They are the least bright and least power-intensive of the three chips we use at HitLights, and are most commonly used for accent lighting, such as above kitchen cabinets and around the crown molding below the ceiling.ģ528 chips used to be featured in our Luma5 strips, but those now primarily use lower output 2835 chips which offer the same brightness of 3528 chips but with greatly improved efficiency and lifespan. SMD 3528 Chips are perhaps the most common of all LED light strip chips. Note that size is not proportional to output or performance, and it is not the only difference between LED chip types. ![]() Take SMD 3528 for example, they are 3.5mm wide and 2.8mm long. The numbers after the SMD simply refer to the physical size of the LED Chip. This surface mounting technology is indeed what makes LED Light Strips possible. That means this is an LED Chip (device) mounted directly to a light strip, without using wires. The abbreviation SMD refers to a 'Surface Mounted Device'. These numbers are less mysterious than you might think.įirst off, you might have seen the letters "SMD" preceding these enigmatic numbers. Have you ever been looking for LED light strips and ran across the numbers 2835, 3825, or 5050? ![]()
