2. How to Choose LED Strip Light for Cabinet Furniture?
When choosing LED strip lights for cabinet lighting, there are a few key factors to consider:
1). Brightness: Determine the amount of light output needed based on the size and function of the cabinet. For task lighting, a brighter strip light may be required, while for accent lighting, a softer and dimmer light may be more appropriate.
2). Color temperature: LED strip lights come in a range of color temperatures, from warm white (2700K-3000K) to cool white (5000K-6000K). Consider the overall color scheme of the room and the mood you want to create.
3). CRI: Color rendering index (CRI) measures how accurately the light shows colors. Look for LED strip lights with a CRI of at least 80 for true-to-life color representation.
4). Length and size: Measure the length and dimensions of the cabinet to ensure the LED strip light is a good fit. Some strip lights can be cut to size, while others may need to be purchased in specific lengths.
5). Waterproof rating: If the cabinet is in a damp or humid area, such as a bathroom or kitchen, consider purchasing LED strip lights with a waterproof rating to prevent damage.
