Which LED strip to choose for ceiling lighting

The LED strip consists of a self-adhesive base and an upper layer, on which light-emitting diodes are placed at regular intervals. As a rule, it is supplied in rolls of 5 m, but can be cut into strips of any length at specially marked points. Its installation does not take much time, and the radiation options are practically infinite, which makes the LED stripes a very universal addition for the interior.

The main thing that is worth knowing before choosing a LED strip for lighting the ceiling:

  • The operating temperature range of the led-tape lies in the range from -25 ° С to + 60 ° С;
  • Their special features, for example, use in wet rooms, are determined by the rating of IP or Ingress Protection (IP33 - standard tape, IP 67 - waterproof);
  • LED strips are usually rated at 12V and need a suitable power supply (it is also called a driver);
  • Brightness and other modes of radiation LEDs can be adjusted with a special dimmer;
  • Multiple bands can be fed from the same driver at the same time, and their total power should not be more than 90% of the driver's nominal power.

For example, if you install 5 LED strips with a length of 1 m under the ceiling, each with a power consumption of 3 watts / meter, then their total power consumption is 15 watts. Hence, the nominal driver power should be at least 10% higher, that is, at least 17 W.

The type that the LED backlight will have on the ceiling, primarily depends on the size and color of the LEDs on the tape, and also on the number of them per 1 meter of strip. A secondary role is played by such factors as:

  • The angle of the tape relative to the ceiling;
  • The distance between the plinth and the ceiling;
  • Color, texture and reflectivity of this coating.

The size of the LEDs on the ribbon directly affects the light output and pattern. The more they are - the brighter the light and the wider the radiation band. Another way to add brightness is to increase the number of LEDs per meter. Then the lighting will look more saturated and uniform. For comparison, here are a few photos of interiors.

Hidden ceiling lighting with LED strip under the baseboard

Hidden LED lighting under the baseboard of the ceiling is easily combined with other ceiling lamps - chandeliers, hanging, overhead and spot lights. The answer to the question, with what it is better to combine, depends more on the height of the ceiling. When it's low, you'd better give preference to overhead and recessed lights, when high - chandeliers and hanging lamps. In any case, adding a ceiling skirting board with a backlight visually "lifts" the ceiling and increases the size of the room.
