What is the difference between a lamp strip and a lamp bead?

1. Different categories

LED strips and LED strips are generally universal, and all refer to flexible strips; However, the light belt refers to the flexible light belt, that is, the light belt using FPC as the circuit board. The light strip includes two kinds of soft light strip and hard light strip, one is to use FPC as a circuit board (similar to the light strip), and the other is to use a hard board as a circuit board.

2, the production material is different

The flexible LED light belt uses FPC to assemble the circuit board, and uses the patch LED to assemble, so that the thickness of the product is only the thickness of a coin, and does not take up space.
LED hard light strip is assembled with PCB hard board, LED useful patch LED for assembly, but also useful plug-in LED for assembly, depending on the need for different components.

3. Different characteristics

The flexible LED strip can be cut at will or extended at will without affecting the light. The FPC material is soft, can be bent, folded, wound arbitrarily, can be moved and expanded in three-dimensional space without breaking. It is suitable for use in irregular places and small Spaces, and is also suitable for any combination of patterns in advertising decoration.
The advantage of the hard lamp strip is that it is easier to fix, and the processing and installation are more convenient; The disadvantage is that it cannot be bent at will and is not suitable for irregular places.
