Is 5630 LED brighter than 5050?
The size of 5630 LED is 5.6*3.0mm, and the size of 5050 LED is 5.0*5.0mm. The 5050 LED size is larger than that of 5630 LED, but a larger size does not always mean brighter light.
The light output of LED SMD 5630 is much more than that of the 5050 LED. 5050 LED with 60 LEDs per meter can produce 1000 lumens (single LED is 60 mA @ 2.8-3.4 V); while 5630 SMD LED can produce 1300 lumens (single LED is 70mA @ 2.8-3.4 V). It means that a single 5630 LED have more brightness than 5050 LED, and they are all 95 CRI, suitable for staircase lighting and building lighting.
However, the heat output of LED 5630 is also higher. Therefore, use LED 5630 strip with LED aluminium profiles or LED neon tubes to ensure the strips' sustainable time and service life.
