Premium Quality LED strip

During the years I have been testing lots and lots of LED strip. Most strip is only ok or maybe even some good, but very sometimes there is a brand that does everything right. Thick PCB material for the strip with lots of copper and the best LEDs available on the market (High CRI) and as a bonus available in lots of different colors and voltages. Currently there are only 1 company whom I trust to always deliver the utmost best quality LED strip and I use only strips this manufacturer if the lighting is anything critical (Like all my video lighting) or a living space for instance. For other rooms like the garage or somewhere less critical I’ll deviate to a bit cheaper but still good LED strips.

Currently there are two brands which I recommend for this:

  • ColorDiode LED strips
    • No longer available, removed from article!
  • Auxmer LED strips
    • Been using these for years, excellent quality strips!

Auxmer LED strips

Super Warm / Warm / Neutral / Day / Cold White

Auxmer has conveniently located all of their LED strip types on the same page. I have tested both their CRI90 and CRI95 strips and both are absolutely excellent in color and color reproduction. The link below if for 120 LEDs/m high power (19.2w or 28.2w) LED strip. Make sure to apply proper cooling or don’t use full light out for long periods of times (keep strip dimmed). These strips, especially the 28.2w variant are VERY bright!

WW + CW (CCT) LED strip

Auxmer also make very nice Dual White color LED strips also called CCT. They have two variants, one going from 2400K combined with 6500K giving you the best range and they have a 2700K combined with 6500K and that is rated CRI95. It’s best to select the LEDs closest to the actual color you are going to run them for the best effect!

*CCT strip like this have a single downside, although with 19.2W per meter it’s certainly a bright strip, compared to a single color 120LEDs/m strip it will still only have half the light output as a strip with only a single color LED. If you need the high light output, combing two strips in a single profile is the solution.
