Rope Lights vs LED Strip Lights: What are the differences? 

LED Ribbon Lights

Rope lighting has been on the market for a long time and has a variety of uses. Basically, it is a long cylindrical tube that houses an internal light source placed every few inches that gives the appearance of a “glowing” or “twinkling” light. The tube can be plastic, epoxy, or other clear materials that allows the light to shine through. Specific uses for rope lighting are mainly decorative because the light output is minimal.

LED Strip lights (AKA Tape Lights)

An LED Strip Light (also known as an LED tape or ribbon light) is a flexible circuit board populated by surface mounted light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that usually comes with an adhesive backing. There are many quality levels of LED strip lights so it is important that you understand the difference between high quality and low quality LED strips.

These flexible LED strips boast a flat, low profile shape which allows you to install them anywhere and cut where needed (at any cut point), making it a more adaptable lighting tool. Because of their brightness and customizability, LED strip lights are used for a variety of applications that range from kitchen under cabinet lighting to replacing ceiling fluorescents, lighting a small hobby project, or a large conference room. They can controlled through wireless dimming systems, DMX controllers, and wall switches.
