Strip Light with 2835 Smd Led
The most versatile and cost-effective size, solving the problem of low brightness in small-chip models. Low voltage operation, no flicker, no UV radiation, and surface temperature <45℃ (touch-safe).




Product Overview
A flexible LED strip with 2835 SMD chips designed for general lighting in residential, commercial and task applications where brightness, flexibility and cost efficiency are balanced. The 2835 chip size offers higher output than smaller SMDs while maintaining a slim profile. The strip is bendable at any angle up to 180 degrees and cuttable at 5cm or 10cm intervals without damaging the circuit. Available in 12V or 24V DC, with 60, 120 or 168 LEDs per metre, and customizable power consumption. Rated from IP20 to IP68 depending on the version, it supports surface mounting in dry, damp or fully submerged environments. Suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, corridors, under-cabinets, TV backlighting and commercial spaces where consistent brightness and low heat are required.
Key Benefits
- 2835 SMD chips deliver higher brightness than smaller SMDs while maintaining a slim profile
- Bendable at any angle up to 180 degrees for fitting around curves and irregular surfaces
- Cuttable at 5cm or 10cm marked intervals without damaging the circuit or affecting performance
- Available in 12V or 24V DC to suit different run lengths and voltage drop requirements
- IP20 to IP68 protection levels allow use in dry, damp or fully submerged environments
- Power consumption is customizable based on LED quantity per metre
- Surface temperature below 45℃ makes it touch-safe in enclosed or close-proximity installations
- No flicker with PWM dimming, no UV radiation, and low heat output for safe indoor use
Problems It Solves
- Small SMD chips (e.g. 3528) produce insufficient brightness for general lighting tasks
- Rigid strips cannot follow curved surfaces without cutting or bending damage
- Fixed cut intervals prevent precise fitting to custom run lengths
- Low IP ratings limit use in bathrooms, kitchens or outdoor covered areas
- High surface temperature in some strips makes them unsafe near touch points
- Flicker from low-frequency dimming causes eye strain or video banding
- Lack of voltage options forces the use of longer runs with higher voltage drop
Application Scenarios
- Kitchen under-cabinet task lighting where consistent brightness and low heat are required
- Bathroom ceiling or wall strips in damp areas, using IP65 or higher versions
- Corridor lighting in homes or offices with curved wall runs
- TV backlighting behind a display where a continuous, even light is needed
- Retail shop lighting for product displays, using RGB or white 2200-6500K
- Hotel lobby or reception area lighting with curved wall or ceiling runs
- Office ceiling coves or edge lighting where a slim, flexible strip is needed

Honest Comparison
How It Compares With the Alternatives
| 3528 SMD strip | 2835 offers higher brightness and better thermal performance than 3528, though at a slightly higher cost per metre |
|---|---|
| PVC-coated strip | This strip uses a flexible PCB with polymer insulation, which is more durable and heat-resistant than PVC, but less flexible in extreme cold |
| Rigid aluminium profile strip | This strip is fully flexible and can follow curves, but lacks the heat dissipation of an aluminium channel |
Use Guide
Getting the Best Out of It On Site
- Use 12V for short runs (under 5m) to reduce voltage drop and simplify driver selection
- Use 24V for long runs (over 5m) to maintain consistent brightness across the length
- Ensure cut intervals are respected to avoid damaging the circuit or voiding performance
- For IP65 or higher versions, ensure the ends are sealed properly to maintain protection
- Avoid continuous operation in enclosed spaces without ventilation if surface temperature is a concern
- Use PWM dimmers compatible with 12V or 24V DC to avoid flicker or noise
- Install with the adhesive side down on clean, dry, flat surfaces for optimal adhesion
