What Is Side View Neon Flex

LED neon flex is a type of LED strip lighting made up of a series of Light-Emitting Diodes(LEDs) connected in a circuit and mounted on a strip. The word ‘flex' refers to the fact that they are mounted on a flexible strip as opposed to a rigid one. Further, to protect the neon LEDs and the circuit board, LED neon flex lights are jacketed in a transparent PVC or silicone cover. These structural features make them highly versatile and easy to use.

Things You Need To Know Before Buying LED Neon Flex
 

Brightness

The most significant factor when purchasing an LED Neon Flex is brightness. And for LED strips, Lumen is the most used measuring unit. However, Lumen doesn't indicate the brightness of the light. Instead, it represents the unit of luminous flux that determines the total light output from all directions. So, the higher the value of Lumen, the brighter the light.

Color

LED neon lights give an aesthetic look to your decoration with their colorful appearance. But to choose a color for your LED neon lighting, you need to have some basic knowledge about the color property of LED neon lights.
Types Of LED Neon Colors

LED neon flex has different variations based on color. The color of the LED neon flex is indicated with the initials of the color name. For example- RGB stands for Red, Green, and Blue. That means LED neon flex with an RGB mark combines these three colors.

Correlated Color Temperature (CCT)

Correlated Color Temperature or CCT indicates different shades of white measured in degree Kelvin (K). For the variation of this unit, the appearance of white changes from a warmer to a cooler tone. For instance, a LED neon flex with 3000k will appear warm white. But with 5000k, it will appear fantastic.

Color Rendering Index (CRI)

Color Rendering Index or CRI indicates how well an artificial light source resembles natural light. It is rated from 0-100. With a lower CRI rating, an object looks harsh and dull. That is why CRI is a crucial fact to consider for LEDs. Higher the CRI rating, the better the lighting quality.

IP Rating (Waterproof)

Ingress Protection Code (IP) indicates protection against water. When installing LED neon flex in waterside areas, i.e., bathrooms, poolside or outdoor locations, it is essential to consider. It indicates protection against water. The higher the value of IP, the more water-resistant the LED is.

The highest water-resistance standard for LED neon flex is IP68. So, if you are looking for a waterproof LED neon flex, purchase IP68 PU Neon Flex or IP68 Silicon Neon Flex.

Voltage

LED neon flex is available in two voltage ratings- 12V and 24V. If you require a small installation, 12V is perfect. And for heavy applications, go for 24V. So, before purchasing LED neon flex, decide which voltage rating will be best for your installation.

Power Consumption

LED neon flex is popular due to its energy-saving properties. They consume far less electricity than traditional neon lights.

The power consumption of LED neon flex is measured in watts per meter, foot, or reel. So, before buying LED neon flex, check the wattage and choose the correct power-consuming item for your LED project.

Dimension

Another significant factor to consider before purchasing LED neon flex is its dimension. Dimension indicates the thickness, height, and width of the flex.LED neon flexes come in a variety of dimensions. However, you can also customize them to your requirements.

Length

Before choosing an LED neon flex, the first and most vital step is determining the required length. So, measure the size of the surface where you plan to install LED neon lights. And find out the required ength of LED neon flex in meters or feet. Then place your order based on your requirements.

Shape

LED neon flexes are available in many shapes. For example- square neon, 3D bend neon, slim neon, flat neon, round 360-degree neon, tri-view neon, and mini neon. Each of these shapes gives a different outlook to your lighting. So, before you purchase LED neon flex, decide which shape is preferable for your installation.

Bend Type

LED neon flex is available in various bending profiles. You can set them to bend in your desired direction. However, you must purchase the correct bend type for the LED neon flex to do that.

Horizontal Bending

The Horizontal bending LED neon flex means they can bend only at the horizontal axis. These categories of bending LED neon flexes are great for mounting installation. Plus, they are very flexible and give smooth neon effects without creating any shadows.

Vertical Bending

The Vertical bending LED neon flex is bendable only at the vertical axis. These bendings are great for architectural contour, sign lighting, and indoor or outdoor decoration.

3D Bending

3D bending LED neon lights are bendable in vertical and horizontal directions. They are super flexible. So, you can use them for building outlining, landscape lighting, indoor/outdoor areas, etc.

Dimmer/Controller

You can get a LED neon flex with a dimmable feature. Such a LED neon flex allows you to control the brightness and color of the light. However, the controlling system can be either remote or wall switch. So, go for this feature to adjust the brightness of lights per your requirement.

Indoor Lighting

You can't ignore LED neon flexes to add dimensions to your interior designs! They elevate your indoor lighting and give an aesthetic look to your space. Here, I've presented some indoor lighting ideas for using LED neon flex in the best possible ways-

Ceiling Lighting

LED neon flexes are pretty famous for ceiling lighting. By placing them on your ceiling, you can experiment with the lighting of your entire room. Yet, suspended ceiling lighting works best for neon effects. This is because they give an aesthetic look to your indoor decorations. Another advantage of such lighting is that it hides the light wiring.

Furniture

LED neon flex enhances the furniture's look and highlights accessories and decorative pieces. So, You can add LED neon flex to your sofa, bookshelf, bed, or tables. Besides, using them on cupboards, shoe racks, or wear-drop will give an aesthetic look to your closet.

Kitchen Cabinet

Use LED neon flex to illuminate the kitchen cabinet to give your kitchen an elegant look. Aside from providing visual appeal, they also let you work comfortably in the kitchen. For instance, LED neon flexes under the kitchen cabinet light up the workstation. So, you can chop or process food under the cabinet with enough lighting.

Screens

You can add a modern touch to your decor by adding LED flex to your screens. Besides, such installations reduce the brightness of the light emitting from the screen and thus protect your eyes.

Bathroom

Instead of using classic bulbs or tube lights, you can use LED neon flex for your bathroom. Wrap them around the mirror or design them on the floor. Additionally, install them on your bathtub rims to give a classy appeal.

What Are LED Neon Signs Made Of

LED neon (faux-neon) signs such as NeonPlus® use neither glass nor neon gas. Instead, they are made from acrylic-a thermoplastic better known as Altuglas or Perspex-which is lightweight, shatter-resistant and effective at transmitting light. A typical LED neon sign has the following main components:
Tubes

Cut from a solid block of opal acrylic then rounded and sanded, these hollow tubes house the LEDs.

Edges

The acrylic tubes are finished with either blockout paint or vinyl edging to create the final design.

LEDs

The LEDs (light emitting diodes) work as a semiconductor and are typically made of aluminium-gallium-arsenide. They are embedded in close proximity to each other inside the acrylic tube and then wired up.

Backing panel

If necessary for the final design, the tubes are mounted to a backing panel made of various materials including polycarbonate, acrylic and steel.

How to Ensure the Quality of LED Neon Flex Lights

1. Ensure that the light source LED strip with the brand or quality assurance LEDs, resistors, and IC components.

2. Ask the factory for the LM80 test report of the LEDs, check the expected life hours of the LEDs in the report, high-quality LEDs, L80 lifetime up to 50,000 hours.

3. Make sure that the PCB used for the light source LED strip is pure copper, double-sided PCB with a thickness of 2oz or 3oz.

4. Ensure that the LED silicone neon light housing is made of RoHS compliant, UV resistant, flame retardant, and corrosion-resistant high-quality silicone.

5. Ensure that the LED silicone neon is certified to the relevant product approvals, e.g., CE, RoHS, UL, etc.
