Key Features of LED SMD 5050 Strip
LED SMD 5050 Strip is suitable for a wide range of use scenarios, including product display cabinets, storefront decoration, ultra-thin lightbox backlighting, hotel KTV decoration, outdoor lighting, home ceilings, and ceiling entrance decoration.
High Brightness
Each 5050 LED chip contains three light-emitting diodes, which makes them brighter than 3528 LEDs (another common size). This makes them suitable for areas requiring higher illumination.
Flexible Design
The 5050 light bar is the perfect solution for any design challenge. Its soft and flexible nature allows it to be bent into any shape, making it ideal for round or irregularly shaped designs. It can also be fixed on uneven surfaces and even bent into a variety of text or graphics.
Installation is simple
The back of the strip is labeled with double-sided self-adhesive tape, making it easy to install. The light bar can also be cut to length as needed to adapt to different installation environments.
Waterproof
The light bar is waterproof. It has different ratings, such as IP65, IP68, etc. This makes it suitable for different installation environments and ensures stable operation under various conditions.
RGB
The 5050 light bar offers a wide range of color options, including red, yellow, blue, green, white, warm white, and more. It can also achieve a full color or phantom color effect, ensuring it meets all decorative needs.
Energy saving and environmental protection
The 5050 light bar is an energy saving and environmentally friendly solution. It uses a low voltage DC power supply, which is both energy efficient and environmentally friendly, and the low power consumption of the LED beads also helps to reduce energy consumption.

FAQs
5050 LED strip lights can be waterproof, but it depends on the specific product and its manufacturing process.
For example, some waterproof 5050 LED strip lights may have an IP65 or IP67 rating. An IP65 rating means that the light is dust-tight and can withstand low-pressure water jets from any direction. An IP67 rating provides even higher protection, allowing the light to be submerged in water up to a certain depth for a short period.
Helian LED Lighting offers customization for 5050 LED strips, and we possess a variety of waterproofing techniques such as silicone encapsulation, heat-shrink tubing, nano waterproof coating, and integral extrusion waterproofing to meet your product’s waterproofing requirements.

It is also frequently used for encapsulating 5050 full-color RGB LED components. |
Price | Generally, the price of LED strips may vary depending on factors such as brand, quality, and quantity. Both 2835 and 5050 LED strips are available at different price points. | Same as above |
Lifespan and Reliability | Both types of LED strips have long lifespans and are reliable, with typical lifespans exceeding 50,000 hours. | Same as above |
Conclusion | Both 2835 and 5050 LED strips have their unique advantages and are suitable for different applications. When choosing between the two, consider factors such as size, power, brightness, flexibility in circuit design, and specific application requirements. For applications requiring high brightness and compact size, 2835 LED strips may be a better choice. For applications where larger LED components are acceptable or where full-color RGB encapsulation is needed, 5050 LED strips may be more suitable. | Same as above, emphasizing the unique suitability of each type based on application needs. |
To determine if a 5050 LED is brighter than a 2835 LED, you should refer to the specifications provided by the manufacturer for each LED. These specifications will include the power consumption, luminous efficacy, and typical lumen output, which are the key factors in determining brightness.
