Are LEDs Here to Stay?

Many home trends come and go. Some may eventually repeat themselves in an evolved form; others may drop off the map completely.

When it comes to design, the ebb and flow of trends seems to be the only consistent thing! So how does lighting play into this, you ask? According to a recent survey by the American Institute of Architects, “LED lighting is leading the growth and demand for both kitchen and bathroom features in American homes”.

New Product: Designer Series 2.0 Panels

At Inspired LED, we pride ourselves on providing superior customer service. We believe that this is accomplished through not only offering high quality products, but also by maintaining open communication with our customers regarding ways in which we can continue to meet the growing needs of the LED lighting industry.

Should you be using a Mid-Connector?

when to use an inspired led mid-connector

Flexible LED strips are the perfect solution for task and accent lighting in almost any residential or commercial application. Inspired LED’s wide variety of brightness and color options guarantees for a unique lighting experience in any space. For most LED strip lighting applications, like under cabinet kitchen lighting, the runs of light are generally shorter lengths that are either wired in series (daisy-chained), or in parallel from a single power source.
