SMD 2835 LED Strip Light – High Efficiency & Brightness
The SMD 2835 LED strip light features advanced 2835 chip technology delivering up to 120 lumens per watt — significantly brighter and more efficient than older 3528 and 5050 strips. Each LED measures just 2.8×3.5mm, enabling ultra-high density configurations up to 120 LEDs per meter with uniform, dot-free illumination. Available in warm white (3000K), natural white (4000K), and cool white (6000K), this strip is the ideal choice for both residential and commercial lighting projects where energy savings and long service life matter.

Installation Guide
- Calculate total wattage: strip wattage × total length, then select a power supply with at least 20% headroom.
- Clean the mounting surface thoroughly before applying the 3M adhesive tape.
- For runs longer than 5m, use parallel wiring or signal amplifiers to maintain consistent brightness.
- Mount inside aluminum profiles for improved heat dissipation and a professional finish.
- Always use a compatible LED dimmer for dimming applications (PWM or 0-10V).
Why Choose SMD 2835 Over Other Chips?
Compared to SMD 3528, the 2835 chip delivers 3× the brightness per LED with lower thermal resistance thanks to its larger phosphor pad and improved heat sink design. Compared to SMD 5050, the 2835 consumes 40% less power while delivering comparable light output, and its smaller footprint allows higher density placement. For projects demanding high efficiency, uniform light distribution, and long-term reliability, the SMD 2835 LED strip is the optimal choice.
