LED strips offer a wide range of possibilities for creating general lighting in different spaces and also in different styles of rooms.

The easy installation and flexibility of LED strip lights make them a great lighting solution for any location.

Thanks to their energy-saving LED features, these strip lights provide spectacular general lighting without high running costs. Create a personal solution for your space with LED strip lights.

Different features of LED strip lights

The versatile features of LED strip lighting make it suitable for a wide range of applications and situations.

Warm, neutral or cool?

When you choose LedStore's LED strip lights for general lighting, you can enjoy exactly the mood you want - whether it's a warm 3000K, a neutral 4000K or a cool 6000K light colour temperature. Our range includes a variety of monochrome LED strip lights with different characteristics.

If you are looking for a variable colour temperature for different situations, we recommend you check out our colour temperature adjustable options. With infinitely variable colour temperature control, for example, you can create brighter light during the day and warmer lighting in the evening.

Colourful LED strip

We also offer RGB+W led strip lighting to create red, green, blue and white (4000K) light and combinations of these.
In addition to RGB+W strip, we also offer RGB+CCT strip, which means that in addition to the colours, the strip also has a white light colour temperature control. So you can create a colourful or more neutral atmosphere with white light variations!

Waterproof or dry space LED strip light?

The IP rating is a standard that defines the level of protection of a luminaire against different environmental conditions. The standard uses two numbers, the first indicating protection against dust (0, no protection - 6, dustproof) and the second against moisture (0, no protection - 8, resistant to continuous immersion in water).

The weatherproof LED strip is an excellent choice when you want a LED strip light for your patio or garden, as it is highly resistant to humidity and variable weather conditions. The strip lights designed for dry areas, on the other hand, are ideal for indoor lighting, such as in a living room or kitchen.

Voltages for Led strip lights: driver or mains?

Take the voltage of the LED strip into account when choosing the right strip for your needs. It is important to know the difference between 12V and 24V and mains power between strip lights.

Driver powered LED strip lights are often 12V, 24V or 36V.

AC LED strip lights can be directly connected to your home's 230V mains supply, making them a more convenient option. Please note, however, that mains-current strips are not available with colour temperature control and their installation is an electrical job. Only a plug-in mains power strip can be installed by anyone.

Wide range of LED strips

Our range includes 12V, 24V, 36V and 230V (mains current) LED strips with and without dots, and in different light intensities. LED strips are also available in a wide range of colour temperatures and with a wide range of adjustment options. ALL our LED strip lights are dimmable when you choose a dimmable driver.
