LED strips – What design differences are there regarding LED failure?

marina32123Bymarina32123

I need to install LED strips soon and am currently doing some research.

I would like to choose a CCT LED strip with 2 channels.

e.g. https://www.led-konzept.de/CCT-LED-Streifen-12V-dualweiss-4W-m-warmweiss-kaltweiss-400cm-mit-Litzenleitung-ca-15cm

I don't have any experience with LED strips yet. What happens if an LED fails?

I read somewhere a while ago that there are different types, some are more protected by a certain wiring than others, where then several LEDs fail instead of just one defective LED.

What differences should I note?

I only build LED strips with the WS2812 LED…

This has a built-in controller and is thus individually addressable.

The stripe, however, needs 5 V ubd a controller – I use an ESP 32 and Home Assistant for control, but can also be realized with an ESP alone (= microcontroller)

If an LED fails, only this one is defective…

For other, cheap strips, keep the color at 6 LEDs, or at 3, depending on the operating voltage… you could exchange one by one, but the trouble is hardly one.

Do you splice MUSST with LED strips? Explain!

I don’t understand the question.

I got it! Who forces you to use powerlessly?
