DESIGN Variables in strip lighting consist of water resistance, colour, adhesives, choice of SMD, driving voltage, and whether it is constant current or constant voltage layout. The most common design differences are in how individual LEDs are controlled, specifically differences in color and whether or not each LED is addressable. Single Color, non-addressable: Every LED on the strand is a single white colour, typically ranging from 2700K to 6500K in colour temperature, or any of several monochrome colors covering the range of the visible spectrum (generally from 400-700 nanometers in wavelength). Multicolor, non addressable: Each LED is capable of displaying red, green, blue, or all three (white), driven by three input power rails. All the LEDs display the same colour at any one time, but the colour can be manipulated by varying the voltage applied to each of the three power inputs.

Beam Angle Typical SMD LEDs are rated as having a 120° beam angle, directed "up", ie. perpendicular to the mounting surface. 'Side View' or 'Edge Emitter' SMDs are designed is such that light is emitted parallel to the adhering surface (ie, 90 deg difference to typical tape design). These allow the construction of LED strips which wash surfaces within less space or accent edge profiles such as signage.
