Due to the low barriers to production of wholesale LED neon flex strips 5m, the quality varies. But experienced friends still have a way to identify it. The wholesale LED neon flex strips 5m produced by regular manufacturers and the fake LED neon light strips can be seen from the appearance at a glance.
1. Look at the solder joints. The wholesale LED neon flex strips 5m produced by regular manufacturers are produced by SMT patch technology, solder paste and reflow soldering process. Therefore, the solder joints on the LED neon strips are smooth and not much solder volume. The amount of solder in the solder joints of the counterfeit neon light strips is uneven, and there is usually a dot enclosing the solder leg, and at the same time, there will be different degrees of tin peaks, which is a typical phenomenon of manual soldering.
2. Look at the cleanliness of the surface of the wholesale LED neon flex strips 5m. If the LED light strip produced by SMT process is used, the surface cleanliness is very good, and no impurities and stains can be seen. However, if the manual welding process is used, no matter how the surface is cleaned, there will be stains and traces of cleaning.

3. Look at the packaging. Regular wholesale LED neon flex strips 5m will be packed in anti-static reels, usually 5 meters or 10 meters, and then sealed with anti-static and moisture-proof packaging bags. The counterfeit version will use recycled reels to save costs, and there is no anti-static and moisture-proof packaging bag.
4. Look at the label. Regular wholesale LED neon flex strips 5m will have printed labels on the packaging bags and reels, not printed labels. The counterfeit label is printed, and the specifications and parameters are different.
