How to choose good quality LED-Lichtleiste and avoid loss? This post shows you a high-quality LED strip light VS a cheap & low-quality strip.
Sometimes customers send us LED strip samples from other factories. Some prices are very low, and they want to know the difference. In this post, Lightstec shows you how to tell them apart.
| Besonderheit | Lightstec High Quality | Cheap & Low Quality |
|---|---|---|
| Leiterplatte | Double-layer 2OZ copper PCB, better heat dissipation and lower Spannungsabfall | Single-layer thin PCB, larger voltage drop |
| Power & Resistance | 151R resistor, 12.8W/m, LM-80 certified LEDs | 181R resistor, 11.8W/m, lower output |
| Adhesive | Original 3M 9080A tape, strong long-term sticking | Other-brand tape, weak after long use |
| LED & Holder | 18–20lm, RA>80, copper holder, longer life | 13–15lm, RA<80, iron holder, rusts easily |
1. Lightstec High-Quality LED Strip Light
Double-layer copper PCB is better for heat dissipation and lower voltage drop.
Designed for professional project use.
Our LED strip light uses a 151R resistance with 12.8W/m power.
Our LEDs pass LM-80, which means the strip can be used for a longer time.
We use original 3M 9080A tape. Check the data sheet here: 3M 9080 data sheet (PDF).
It sticks strongly and securely when used properly.
Our LEDs are 18–20lm, RA>80, with 100lm/W light efficacy.
The copper LED holder dissipates heat well and does not rust easily, giving a longer lifetime than iron-holder LEDs.
2. Cheap & Low-Quality LED Strip Light
Single-layer PCB has a larger voltage drop.
Made for low-price products.
Cheaper strips use a 181R resistance with only 11.8W/m.
They lower the power because they cannot handle higher wattage — heat dissipation is not good.
Cheap strips use other-brand tape that is not strong enough over a long time.
The price is low, but it is not good for project use.
After testing, the sample brightness is 13–15lm, RA<80.
The LED can be sucked up by a magnet — the holder is iron. Iron rusts easily, heat dissipation is worse, so the lifetime is shorter than copper-holder LEDs.

Wie geht es dir?
My name is Gennadiy. I work for „CRIPS INTERIORS“ company.
You met my colleague Natalya at the exhibition.
We are currently working on a project and we need 500-1000m of the LED profile.
Please check attached pictures.
Can you provide such item for us?
Please send us a pricelist with lead time.
Thank you for your help
Eisen,pls let me know your company detail.Our sale team will help you for the aluminum profile.
Hope all is well with you!
Wir sind interessiert lighting fixture (please find attached picture).
Können Sie es produzieren?
Anforderungen:
RGB-LED, Hängeleuchte, Material des Lichtdiffusors – Acryl, Gehäuse – Metall-Stahl, Leistung – 4–5 W, nicht dimmbar.
Ich freue mich darauf, von Ihnen zu hören.
Hi Alin,
We have many kinds of led light fixture. let us know more detail via [email protected]
Easy for me to know led strip light quality by material. Now many item looks same, but when I use . some of them have many problem in project after using few months.Never use cheap products!
Dear Penjira,I am happy that this can help you. Hope good business.
Honest comparison! The build quality difference is obvious when you compare side by side. Our clients notice the uniform light output immediately.
