36 led

Types of 36 LED

36-LED lights have become widely used in vehicles, commonly known as car LED lights. They are a type of light-emitting diode (LED) technology that provides illumination for various applications, including interior lighting, exterior lighting, and accent lighting. Because of their long lifespan and reduced energy consumption, they have largely replaced traditional incandescent and halogen bulbs.

There are different types of 36 LEDs, all having their unique features and advantages:

• 36 SMD LED: SMD, which stands for Surface Mount Device, refers to tiny chips mounted directly on a circuit board. 36 SMD LEDs are considerably brighter than standard LED chips and consume less power.
• 36 UV LED: The 36 UV LED is a type of 36 LED light that emits ultraviolet radiation. This kind of LED light cannot be seen with the naked eye. It is used mainly for sterilization and curing because of its ability to kill bacteria and its application in curing polymers.
• 36 RGB LED: The 36 RGB LED is a type of 36 LED light that emits red, green, and blue colors. The 36 RGB LED can create any color by mixing these three primary colors in different intensities. Because of their ability to create a wide range of colors, they are commonly used for decorative lighting.
• 36 COB LED: COB, which stands for Chip on Board, refers to an assembly of numerous integrated circuit chips as a single, luminous component on a substrate. This increases the intensity of light emitted, making COB LED lights considerably brighter than SMD LEDs.

Specifications and maintenance of 36 LED

• Power Consumption

  36 LED lights consume very little energy. They use about 3 to 4 watts of power. This is the same as one regular light bulb. Yet, they produce much more light. This helps save energy costs for households and businesses.

• Light Output

  These LED lights produce a lot of brightness. They can give out between 300 to 400 lumens of light. For comparison, traditional light bulbs only produce around 100 lumens.

• Color Temperature

  Color temperature shows what color the light will be. 36 LED lights come in different color choices. The options are warm white (2700K-3000K), cool white (5000K-5700K), or daylight (6000K-6500K). This gives flexibility for the right light tone needed.

• Color Rendering Index (CRI)

  The Color Rendering Index, or CRI, indicates how true colors will look under the light. A higher number means better color accuracy. 36 LED lights have a CRI between 80 to 90. This means colors will appear vibrant and true.

• Life Span

  LED lights are very long-lasting. The bulbs of 36 LED lights can shine for 25,000 to 50,000 hours. That is much longer than regular bulbs that last for 1,000 hours on average. So, 36 LED lights do not need to be changed for many years. This saves time and money.

• Voltage

  36 LED lights are made to work with the electricity in most homes and businesses. They are available in 120V and 240V options depending on the region. This allows the lights to be used anywhere.

• LED Chips

  LED chips are the tiny parts inside that produce the light. 36 LED lights use high-quality chips to give the best brightness. They also have chips that use less energy.

• Beam Angle

  The beam angle decides how wide the light shines. Some 36 LED lights have a narrow beam for focused spots. Others spread the light broadly across larger areas. This provides choices for different needs.

• Dimming Capability

  Some 36 LED lights come with the option to dim the brightness down low if needed. This allows for softer lighting when preferred.

• Heat Management

  The lights have a special way to keep cool. LEDs do not get hot like other bulbs. But they need good airflow around them. This heat management helps the lights last longer.

Regular maintenance of 36 LED lights is important to keep them working well and shining bright. Here are some simple ways to take care of them:

• Cleaning

  Dust, dirt, and bugs can build up on LED lights over time. This makes them less bright. So, use a soft cloth or duster to wipe the outside of the bulbs regularly. A microfiber cloth works best to grab dust. Also, use a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove any dirt from light fixtures.

• Inspecting

  Every few months, look closely at all the LED lights in the house. Check for any bulbs that are flickering or not as bright. Also, see if any lights have cracks or damage to the glass covering. Early detection helps find problems before they get worse.

• Replacing

  Most 36 LED lights can last 25,000 hours or more. But eventually, some bulbs will start to slowly dim over time. When one whole bulb is noticeably less bright, it should be switched out. This keeps the lighting evenly bright across the room.

• Burnouts

  LED lights have a low risk of burning out suddenly. But if one bulb stops working, check to see if the others in that fixture are still on. If multiple bulbs go out at once, the problem may be with the fixture or wiring. Inspecting can find issues that need to be fixed.

• Clear Away Spiders and Insects

  LED lights are not attractive to insects. But spiders and bugs can sometimes get inside the glass covering. If there are any, carefully open the light and use a dry cloth to remove them.

• Check Dimming Capabilities

  For LED lights that have brightness levels that can be lowered, test the dimmer switch. Make sure it still smoothly controls the light levels.

• Check Voltage

  The voltage needs to be the same as what the 36 LED light requires. Most use 120V. But check the instructions to see what each specific bulb needs to run correctly.

• Dispose Properly

  When replacing old LED lights, do not throw them in regular trash. Instead, use an e-waste recycling program to safely recycle the hazardous materials in the bulbs.
