Applications for LED strips in the home

LED strips


LED strips are more versatile than people think! Nowadays we see LED strips more often in all kinds of spaces. For example in the living room, kitchen, bedroom, workspace, but also in the bathroom and garden! In addition, there are many different types of LED strips. Are you looking for ideas to make your house more attractive? In this blog, you will find tips for choosing the right LED strip and more than 25 ideas for applications!

THE SPECIFICATIONS

Before you buy an LED strip it is important to look at the specifications of the strip. Because which LED strip is suitable? At LedLampenDirect you will find LED strips in 12V and 24V. 12V is recommended if you are going to use the LED strip as mood lighting. 24V, on the other hand, can be used as the main lighting thanks to the high light output. What is indicated by SMD? SMD indicates how many LEDs per meter are on the strip. The more LEDs, the smoother the light line will become. The number after that, such as 5050 or 2835, is the size of the Led on the strip. The YPHIX LED strips are 5 meters and can easily be shortened. There is namely a pair of scissors depicted on the strip, where you can cut. All YPHIX LED strips are easy to attach due to the strong adhesive edge on the back of the strip.
In addition to being shortened, all YPHIX LED strips can be dimmed, for example with a dimmer in the wall or radio remote control.
The light color is also an important specification. There are LED strips in various shades of white and RGB strips that give more than 1 million colors. You can use warm white or extra-warm white for atmospheric light. An LED strip daylight white is perfect for updating. So there is always a suitable LED strip!  

A SOLUTION FOR EVERY ROOM

For which space do you want to buy an LED strip? In the wide range, we also find an LED strip suitable for wet areas such as the bathroom and in the garden. This IP68 strip is covered in silicone, which makes it waterproof. IP stands for dust and water resistance, for example, an IP20 is not waterproof. Are you going to place an LED strip in a round shape or with many corners? Then there is a super easy to install LED strip that has been specially designed for this.

IDEAS

A bathroom like that of a luxury villa? You make it by making a strip under the bath edge, behind the mirror, under the bathroom furniture or in the ceiling. These changes can be made very easily thanks to the adhesive strip on the back. Are you going to renovate the bathroom? For an even more special effect, place a strip on the shower wall or on the floor.
After a busy day, you finally fall on the couch. A little time for yourself. Ambient lighting is very important here. You can give your living room something special with an LED strip behind the sofa, TV, painting or in the cupboard. Create an ideal setting for unlimited relaxation with colors.
A kitchen is a dynamic place. From a quick breakfast to a long dinner with friends and family. So give the kitchen some extra luxury with an LED strip in and under the kitchen cupboards, under the kitchen island or as work lighting. Choose a color strip or one with a warm white light color.
Many emotions are shared in the bedroom, where the light must be atmospheric and practical. An LED strip is a good addition. For example, behind the bed, in the wardrobe or walk-in closet, but also under the bed. An advantage of an LED strip under the bed is that you always have some lighting if you have to get out at night and do not want to wake your partner. For older people and children, it can be a good solution as a night light or anti-tripping light.
LED strips are not only suitable for indoor use. Wrapped in waterproof silicone, they can also be used in the garden, balcony, pond, under the porch or canopy, or in the garden shed. An easy way to install garden lighting and also super atmospheric!
Furthermore, LED strips are perfect for a game room, man cave, bar, caravan, camper, boat, truck or in the stairs.
