What is relationship between LED Strip CRI and Lumen?


www.sunroleds.com
One of our customer required us to customized CRI>90 Strips. while he receive the samples, he compare our CRI>80 Strip with CRI>90 strip, then he change his mind to choose CRI>80 strip.

So what is relasthip between CRI and Lumen?  Will CRI>90 be more suitable for led strip application?

Now we are sharing our led strip base knowledge with you.

Color rendering index (CRI), is the degree of reduction of the light color of an object. Highest CRI is up to 100, the lowest is 0

Sunlight color rendering index is 100, but As the characteristics of the light source, the illumination light determines the degree of reduction of the color of an object.

Take LED as for example, the LED mainstream is that  the white light is made from blue chip program is mixed yellow phosphor, so the LED spectrum is mainly blue and yellow.

We all know the three primary colors are red, green, light blue, the mix color of red and green get yellow. So  The blue color is mixed with yellow light, which form to white light.

However, due to the spectral characteristics, For white color, red ingredients is relatively small, so the LED color rendering index is generally less than 100, usually between 70-80 or so.

In order to improve LED color rendering index, The LED is added into the red phosphor or green phosphor, but due to the excitation efficiency of the red phosphor and green phosphor is relatively low, after adding Pink or green powder, LED CRI is improved, but the overall lumen is decreased a lot.

In the mainstream industry, LED color rendering index get higher, then luminous flux will be lower. The LED industry, there is no better methord to improve CRI while the luminous flux is also improved.

2015 LED Industry Development Review and 2016 Development Trend Analysis

In 2015, under the influence of the global economic environment, LED industry has experienced in the history of "the coldest year." "Price war", "bad-mouthing" theory. However, in 2015 the LED industry, what was the situation? From the sub-industry export situation in 2015, total exports of lighting fixtures to complete the entire industry accounted for 79.25% of total exports. In addition, LED lighting is rapidly completed to replace the traditional lighting fixtures, and in 2015 the global LED lighting market size of 557 billion, the market penetration rate is up to 36.9%. This means that although the slowdown, but the LED to replace the traditional lighting market is still there is a very large room for improvement. Looking to 2016, How is the LED Lighting Industry Trend? 1. LED industry "penetration" Improving From the Chinese LED industry policy support level, whether it is from the center or to the relevant functional departme

13 Habits successful people have

One of the reasons for their transformation from ordinary people to successful people with seven-figure property lies in their "rich habits." The phrase was created by Thomas C. Corley, who spent five years studying the daily habits of 177 self-reliant millionaires. "Through research, I've found that your daily habits tell you how successful you are in your life," he writes in his new book, ChangeYour Habits, Change Your Life. "Habit predicts a Habit determines the wealth, poverty, happiness, sadness, stress, good or bad relationship, health or not. Corrie said the good news is that all habits can be changed and nurtured. Here are some of the "rich habits" of the millionaires that you can start today: 1 They often read The rich are more willing to learn than to entertain. "Eighty-eight percent of the rich will read at least 30 minutes a day, with self-directed and self-elevating reading," says Corey. "Most people do n
