Outdoor LED Strip Lights: Ways to Use Them and What to Look For

High-quality outdoor LED strip lighting (IP65+ LED strip lighting) makes it possible not only for you to illuminate your home’s or business’s outdoor spaces ⎯ they are also ideal for your high-humidity spaces like bathrooms and kitchens.

Here are a few creative ways to use them, as well as how to assess quality so you know you’re getting the best bang for your buck.

Creative and Practical Ways to Use Outdoor LED Strip Lights

There are numerous ways in which you can use Flexfire LEDs outdoor LED strip lights. These are some of the most practical:

• For outdoor kitchen accent lighting. Both our Outdoor UltraBright^TM Outline Series and our Outdoor UltraBright^TM Accent series are good for this. They are also both IP65 rated, making them perfect for use in kitchens, as these are also great for accent or task lighting around sinks, and in other high splash areas.

• As garden and pathway lighting. Many of our different outdoor LED light strips are perfect as accent and mood lighting around the garden. One very useful way to install them is alongside walkways, or under the overhangs of decks. This way, they will shed a little ambient light which improves safety when outside at night, too. With that said, our lights should not be stepped on as they are not intended to bear weight.

• Under awnings and eaves. Our outdoor LED strip lights are easy to install and only require low-voltage input, making them an energy efficient outdoor lighting alternative. Incorporating outdoor LED strip lights into your facade lighting project offers flexibility for creating appealing accent or mood lighting, while also potentially improving security.

• Our color changing outdoor LED light strips are also great as holiday lighting, since they can be completely customized and controlled. Used around the exterior of your home, you can set our RGBW, RGB+DYN, or RGB Pixel lights as white throughout most of the year, and red and green around Christmas time ⎯ though you can also make them red white, and blue for the Fourth, Memorial Day, Veterans’ Day, etc.!

• Our IP65 Lucid™ Series and Sign Module lights also make a great option for commercial signage, which is great for businesses. As an alternative for business windows, another option would be our Color Changing RGB Light Strips. They can also be color-customized according to the occasion/time of year.

• Do you have a boat, car, or motorcycle that could use some low-voltage accent lighting? You can use our RGB outdoor lights as accent lighting on vehicles, and use our white outdoor strip lights as low-voltage safety lighting on boat decks, in cabins, on gunwales, etc. There are a million and one uses!

• For restaurant, bar, and cafe owners, all of our outdoor LED strip lights make a good choice for accent lighting, eave lighting, or just for setting the mood. Plus, since they’re water-resistant, spills and other mishaps pose no problem.

Not to suggest that the other strip lighting we offer wouldn’t make good stage lighting, but the outdoor LED lights we offer make a great choice since they exhibit excellent resistance to both water and particulate ingress, making them particularly durable and long-lasting.

These are just a few of the ways in which our outdoor LED strip lights can be used. Now let’s talk about how they deliver exceptional value for your money.
