USB LED Light Strip with 60 Beads per Metre and Adjustable Dimming Control
This decorative LED light strip features 60 individual lamp beads per metre, each emitting 8-10 lumens with 180-degree beam coverage for consistent ambient lighting. The dimming capability allows precise brightness adjustment from subtle accent lighting to functional illumination, while the 10,000-hour operational lifespan ensures long-term reliability. Powered by 5V USB connection with 7.4W consumption, it offers energy-efficient lighting solutions for various indoor applications where customisable lighting effects are desired without complex installation requirements.
Technical Specifications and Construction Quality
The LED light strip incorporates specific technical features that ensure reliable performance and consistent illumination output across different installation scenarios, with measurable parameters supporting its functional capabilities.
LED Configuration and Output
Each metre contains precisely 60 individual 2835-type RGB LED lamp beads spaced for optimal light distribution without dark spots. The 8-10 lumen output per bead creates cumulative illumination intensity suitable for both decorative and functional purposes. The 180-degree beam angle ensures wide light dispersion, covering larger surface areas effectively while maintaining consistent brightness levels throughout the strip length.
Power and Electrical Performance
Operating at 5V with 7.4W power consumption, the light strip demonstrates energy-efficient performance compared to traditional lighting solutions. The USB power interface provides compatibility with various power sources including computer ports, power banks, and USB adapters. The white PCB double panel construction ensures stable electrical connectivity and heat dissipation, supporting the 10,000-hour operational lifespan under normal usage conditions.
Physical Construction Details
Practical Applications and Usage Scenarios
This LED light strip serves multiple practical purposes across different settings, from professional installations to everyday decorative applications where customisable lighting enhances visual appeal and functionality.
Professional Display Lighting
Home and Residential Use
For residential applications, the light strip installs easily under kitchen cabinets providing task lighting with adjustable intensity for food preparation or creates ambient lighting behind televisions and entertainment units reducing eye strain. In bedrooms, the dimming capability supports gradual waking with increasing light intensity or creates relaxing evening atmospheres with reduced brightness levels. The USB power operation allows connection to bedside power banks or computer systems.
Multi-Purpose Installation Flexibility
The strip adapts to various surfaces including shelving units, desk edges, and architectural features where concealed lighting enhances spatial perception. The different length options permit custom installations without cutting or modification, while the flexible construction accommodates curved surfaces and corners. The non-waterproof design makes it suitable for dry indoor environments including living spaces, offices, and commercial interiors where moisture exposure is controlled.
Performance Benefits and Value Considerations
The LED light strip delivers measurable advantages through specific technical features and construction qualities that provide both immediate functional benefits and long-term operational value across different usage contexts.
Long-Term Operational Economy
With a 10,000-hour operational lifespan, the light strip reduces replacement frequency compared to traditional lighting solutions, providing approximately 3-5 years of typical usage before significant performance degradation. The 7.4W power consumption represents approximately 85% energy reduction compared to equivalent incandescent lighting, resulting in measurable electricity cost savings over the product lifespan while maintaining equivalent illumination output for decorative and functional purposes.
User Experience and Control Flexibility
The dimming capability provides precise brightness adjustment from 0-100%, allowing users to match lighting intensity to specific activities and preferences without requiring additional controllers or complex programming. The consistent 60-beads-per-metre spacing ensures even light distribution without bright spots or dark sections, creating uniform illumination that enhances visual comfort during extended exposure. The simple USB connection eliminates complex electrical installation requirements.
Practical Implementation Advantages
The included 0.5-metre controller cable provides convenient connection to power sources without requiring additional extensions in most installation scenarios. The multiple length options (1, 2, 3, 5 metres) accommodate various application requirements without waste or modification. The RGB colour capability combined with dimming control creates numerous lighting combinations and effects, providing customisation options that adapt to changing decorative preferences or functional requirements over time.
