2835 vs 3030 LED Chips: Which Is Brighter?
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I choose the right solution for my project?
Start by defining your budget, installation environment (indoor vs outdoor), and how long you expect the display to last. If you are unsure, send us your drawings and dimensions, and our engineers will recommend the best option within 24 hours.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity?
Standard items have no MOQ. Custom colors, custom sizes, and private label packaging usually require 500–1000 pieces depending on the product. Sample orders are always welcome before bulk production.
Q: How long is the lead time?
Standard stock items ship within 3–5 working days. Custom production takes 15–25 days depending on quantity and tooling. We can also rush orders for urgent trade shows if needed.
Q: Do you ship worldwide?
Yes. We export to 40+ countries including the USA, Germany, UK, Australia, and the Middle East. We can ship by sea (FCL/LCL), air, or express courier. We handle export documentation, customs declaration, and commercial invoice preparation.
Practical Tips Before You Order
Before placing an order, always confirm three things: first, double-check your exact dimensions and corner angles against your space. Second, ask for a physical sample before mass production—what looks good on screen may feel different in person. Third, plan for spare parts (LED strips, drivers, edge strips) at the same time as your main order, because reordering small spare parts later usually costs more than the parts themselves.
For long-term projects, we recommend keeping a detailed spec sheet for every installation: what size frame, what color strip, what LED color temperature, and which driver version. This makes future replacements and maintenance much faster. EEYUN has been manufacturing SEG lightboxes, aluminum profiles, and LED strips in Hangzhou, China since 2010, and we support OEM/ODM for distributors and brand owners worldwide.
2835 SMD
2835 is the most common lightbox LED. Each chip is 5.6×3.0mm and outputs about 20–25 lumens. At 120 LEDs/m on a hard PCB, it delivers even light for shallow boxes.
3030 SMD
3030 chips are slightly larger (3.0×3.0mm square) and output 30–40 lumens each. They are used for deeper boxes or low-translucency fabric where more punch is needed. Usually 60 LEDs/m.
Which to Pick
For 100–150mm deep SEG boxes, 2835 is enough. For 200mm+ deep boxes or dark fabric, step up to 3030.
