TIL: LED strips can be made in a continuous process in basically arbitrary length: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xYxB-3j7lk

Before watching that video, I was under the impression that LED strips are made of 1m long segments as that's the maximum size of a PCB panel.

But now that LED strips have become an established product, I guess it made sense to develop bespoke manufacturing processes.

Now I want to know how they make that 10-meter long flex PCB.

@karotte Also a very enjoyable style of video. No music, no commentary, just factory noise.

@23n27 Yeah, the whole channel is like that. There are even more channels like that one with surprisingly similar names: https://www.youtube.com/@Satisfyingtech116 https://www.youtube.com/@processx

I'm really wondering who's running that sort of channel.

@karotte Yeah I clicked on some of the other videos and then quickly closed the window because otherwise I was going to spend the whole day there.

@karotte I still have LED strips joined by two blobs of solder. It's only been a few years
