ChipStripLEDs are modular, stackable light sources for signage, decorative lighting and channel letter illumination. These low profile, LED-based units have an operating life in excess of 100,000 hours, do not generate the heat of incandescent bulbs, and eliminate the bulky high-voltage power sources required by neon, while using less power than either one. They provide brightness comparable to neon and are available in colors including green, yellow, blue, red and white. The LEDs have a 120-degree viewing angle, reducing the number needed to maintain a uniform light emission level. Each unit contains four high-intensity LEDs mounted in a plastic housing measuring 83 x 16.7 mm and is equipped with standard spade lugs on both ends. Operating voltage is 12 Vdc. Units can be used indoors or out, and are suggested for architectural, theater, and decorative illumination designs.
