How to calculate the watts of LED STRIP?

There are many different varieties of LED strip lights, 3528 and 5050SMD LED strip are the most common ones.

The watts is usually measured per one metre of the LED strip.

The most common watts per metre LED strip on the market today for 3528LED is 4.8 watts per meter.That's say 4.8watts per 3.3 feet.


5050LED is 14.4 watts p/m.


The total amount of watts for your LED strip would then be worked out by multiplying the wattage p/m by the overall length of your LED strip.
The wattage of the LED strip usually determines the brightness of the LED strip. Usually the higher the wattage, the higher the output. Output is measured in lumens.
