Why do LED bracket lights flicker? Here’s how we should choose them!

When using LED bracket lights, we should have a basic understanding of them, because most of the substandard bracket lights on the market now exhibit flickering phenomena. So what causes this flickering? In this article, I will analyze it for everyone. Additionally, I will also introduce how to choose LED bracket lights so that everyone can avoid selecting those substandard products. If you are interested, let's take a look at the article together!

 

 

Why do LED bracket lights flicker?

 

1. The flicker of LED bracket lights refers to the instability of the light intensity following frequency fluctuations, where the light appears to change brightness in a very short time, making it seem like the light is flickering. The human eye has a discernible threshold for this brightness change in bracket lights, generally perceiving flicker at light frequencies below 80Hz. Above this frequency, the human eye may find it difficult to detect, but flickering still exists.

2. LED bracket lights are diodes that require direct current. Therefore, a driver power supply is needed in the working circuit to convert alternating current into direct current. If the quality of the driver power supply is poor, and the internal components are of low quality, it may not convert all incoming alternating current into direct current, leading to unstable output current from the driver power supply.

3. To reduce flickering in LED bracket lights, it is more about the merchants consciously improving the quality of the driver power supply, increasing the capacity of the rectifier filter capacitor, and reducing the occurrence of low-frequency ripple. This will increase costs to some extent, and some merchants who prioritize profit may not be willing to spend money to improve this. It also requires relevant national departments to pay attention and establish standards.

 

 

How to choose LED bracket lights?

 

1. When selecting LED bracket lights, choose metal halide lamps as the light source. These bracket lights have a lifespan of ≥10000h, and their overall design is reasonable to address issues such as damage, reduced lifespan, and cracking of the support frame caused by significant vibrations. They have electromagnetic compatibility and are less likely to interfere with surrounding environmental signals. The heat dissipation of the bracket lights is good, which can lower the common failure rate.

2. Generally speaking, different colors of bracket lights give different impressions. Soft and elegant colors provide a sense of tranquility, while highly saturated colors allow for clear visibility of object details. The contrast between these two different colors is often used in actual construction, which can better highlight the main subject and improve contrast.
