Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key specifications of 3493?

3493: 2835, 240 LEDs/m, 24V, 10mm PCB, 3oz copper FPCB, cuttable 8LEDs/33.33mm. Full photometric data, wiring diagrams and test reports are available in the downloads section of this page.

Which environments is this high efficacy LED strip lights rated for?

Ingress protection for this model is listed in the datasheet. As a high efficacy LED strip lights it is specified for the duty listed in the datasheet, and DENO can supply alternative coatings, sleeves or IP68 potting for harsher installations.

Can DENO customise this high efficacy LED strip lights for a project?

Yes. DENO manufactures the High Light Efficacy SMD Strips series as an OEM and ODM supplier: reel length, colour temperature, CRI grade, PCB width, waterproofing and private labelling can all be specified. Request a quote for lead time and project pricing.

How many LEDs per metre does a dotless LED strip need?

Visible dots depend on LED pitch, diffuser distance and transmittance. Above roughly 480 LEDs/m most diffusers give a continuous line at 10 mm depth, and the 700 LEDs/m high density LED strip stays dot free even behind a shallow, highly transmissive lens.

How much can a high efficacy LED strip cut energy use?

Moving from a typical 100 lm/W strip to a 180 to 200 lm/W high lumen LED strip roughly halves the wattage needed for the same lumen output. Over a long commercial run this also lowers the required driver size and helps the installation reach a better ErP energy class.

High Density LED Strip — Buyer Questions

What counts as a high density LED strip?

Anything above roughly 120 LEDs per metre is normally sold as a high density LED strip. DENO builds high-density boards from 240 up to 700 LEDs/m, which puts the LED pitch between 4.2 mm and 1.4 mm — tight enough to read as a continuous line behind a shallow diffuser instead of a row of dots.

Is a 24V high density LED strip better than 12V?

For dense boards, yes in most cases. A 24V high density LED strip draws half the current of a 12V board at the same wattage, so voltage drop is far lower and single runs of 5–10 m stay even in brightness. DENO supplies 12V, 24V, 48V and mains-voltage versions of the same high-density layout; 12V is normally reserved for short cabinet runs or low-voltage furniture requirements.

Do you make a 5V high density LED strip?

Yes. 5V dense LED tape is built for USB-powered displays, shelving and addressable pixel projects where the controller is 5V-native. Because 5V boards lose voltage quickly, DENO limits standard runs to 1–2 m per feed, uses 2 oz or 35+70 μm copper, and adds per-segment constant-current ICs so the far end does not dim.

Can a high density RGB LED strip stay dot-free?

It can, but the pitch has to be tighter than a white board because each RGB package mixes three separate dies. DENO's high density RGB and RGBW builds place emitters at 2.1 mm–4.2 mm pitch so colour mixing completes within a few millimetres of the diffuser, which removes both the dot pattern and the rainbow fringing seen on standard 60 LEDs/m RGB tape.

What is a high density addressable LED strip used for?

High density addressable LED strip (pixel tape) is used for signage, media facades, stair effects and studio lighting where each LED or short segment must be controlled individually. DENO offers addressable builds with up to 700 pixels per metre in SPI protocols such as WS2812B, WS2815 and SK6812, with breakout points every cut unit for reliable data injection on long runs.

What makes the best high density LED strip lights?

Density alone is not enough. The best high density LED strip lights combine tight LED pitch with a 3-SDCM binning window, Ra 90+ (Ra 95+ for full-spectrum), 2 oz or heavier copper for thermal spreading, flicker-free constant-current drive and an FPCB rated for repeated bending. DENO ships photometric data, LM-80 chip data and a full test report with every OEM order so specifiers can verify these claims instead of trusting a datasheet number.

Can I order a custom high density LED strip?

Yes — LED count, pitch, CCT, CRI, PCB width from 3 mm, copper weight, cut unit and IP rating are all configurable on a custom high density LED strip. DENO is a manufacturer, not a reseller, so a non-standard density or a mixed-CCT dense board can be tooled from an existing FPCB stack-up without a new production line.

Is high density LED tape the same as a high density LED strip?

They are the same product under two names: “high density led tape” is the common UK/EU term for what North America calls a high density LED strip. DENO ships the identical dense FPCB boards to both markets — 240 to 700 LEDs/m, 3 mm to 12 mm widths, CE/UL/RoHS documentation — so the tape you specify in a UK cove detail is the same board as the strip specified in a US one.

Which dense LED tape suits under-cabinet lighting?

For under-cabinet work choose a dense board at 240–420 LEDs/m in a 5 mm to 8 mm width, 12V or 24V, with a short cut unit so the board matches each cabinet run exactly. At that density a 10 mm deep aluminium channel with a frosted diffuser already reads dot-free at normal worktop viewing distance.

What power supply do I need for a dense LED strip run?

Size the driver from the board wattage: multiply the W/m figure on the datasheet by the run length, then add 20–30 % headroom, so a 20 W/m board over 5 m needs a 100 W load on a 120–130 W constant-voltage driver. Match the driver voltage exactly (24V board, 24V driver), keep it constant-voltage rather than constant-current unless the board carries its own CC ICs, and check that the dimming protocol — TRIAC, 0–10V, DALI or PWM — is supported on both sides before ordering.

Does more LEDs per metre mean a brighter strip?

Not on its own. Brightness is lumens per metre, which is drive current times die count times efficacy — doubling the LED count while halving the current per die gives the same output with a smoother line, not twice the light. Read lm/m and W/m together: DENO dense boards run 8–24 W/m and 700–2600 lm/m, so pick the density for dot-free appearance and the wattage for the light level you actually need.

Can dense LED tape run on 36V or 48V supplies?

Yes. 36V and 48V builds exist specifically for long uninterrupted runs: at 48V the same wattage draws a quarter of the current of a 12V board, so a single feed can cover 15–20 m with even brightness and far fewer injection points. They need a matching SELV driver and, in most territories, the same low-voltage installation rules as 24V; DENO supplies 36V and 48V versions of the standard dense layouts on request.

High Efficiency LED Strip — Buyer Questions

What is the difference between high efficiency and high efficacy LED strip lights?

They describe the same measurement. Efficacy is the engineering term for lumens delivered per watt consumed; efficiency is how buyers and tender documents usually phrase it. DENO publishes lm/W per model so both audiences read the same number, and the ErP energy class printed on the reel is derived from it.

Does a high efficiency LED strip run cooler and last longer?

Yes. Fewer watts per lumen means less heat into the FPCB, so junction temperature drops and L70 lifetime extends. Combined with 2 oz copper and a 99.9% pure copper foil the same brightness can be produced at 20-30% lower wattage, which also lets a single driver feed a longer run and keeps aluminium profiles below the touch-temperature limits used in hospitality projects.

How much energy does a high efficiency LED strip save on a large project?

Take 500 m of cove lighting at 10 hours a day. A 130 lm/W board delivering 1000 lm/m draws about 7.7 W/m; a 190 lm/W board delivers the same output at about 5.3 W/m. Across 500 m that is 1.2 kW saved, roughly 4,380 kWh a year, and it usually removes one driver and one circuit from the electrical schedule as well.
