if u use LED strips use in bedroom,recommend use the warmwhite LED strips
if other place,can use the white LED strips.i think use 5050 LED strips enough.
60pcs 5050 SMD LEDs per meter and IP20 waterproof,back with 3M tape,easy install and use
if you need longer lifespan,we recommend select the supplier that provide warranty more than 1year,important..

Are you offering 5050 as that is all that you sell other than 2835?

60 pieces 5050 .... how many lumens would that be? ....... could be way too much per meter for a bedroom. What is your justification?

how long do you want your light to last before degrading and loosing 2\3 or 3\4 of brightness?
