Why mount LED strip in a channel

Three reasons, and the first surprises people. Heat — LED strip stuck straight onto plasterboard or timber has nowhere to lose its heat, and heat is what shortens LED life. An aluminium channel acts as a heatsink and the strip lasts materially longer.

Appearance — bare strip shows every individual diode as a row of bright dots. A channel with a diffuser blends them into a continuous line of light, which is the difference between a finished job and an obvious strip of tape.

Protection — the strip is held straight, shielded from knocks, and can be removed and replaced later without peeling adhesive off a painted surface.

Where it is used
