Why Does My Newly Bought LED Display Break So Quickly?

Introduction

LED display screens are widely used in various fields and have excellent performance, but consumers often report that newly purchased screens are easy to damage, which arouses concern.

For example: Why does my newly bought LED display screen break so quickly? Why is it so easy to break? This article will help you explore this reason, so let’s take a look.

Reason 1: Product quality factors of LED display screens

Speaking of LED display screens, the first thing that comes to mind is its cool display effect and wide application scenarios.

But do you know? There are actually many “little secrets” about quality hidden behind this, which are the key to determining whether your newly bought display screen can stand the test of time!

1). Raw material quality:

If the lamp beads in the LED display screen are as easy to break as cheap plastic toys, or the driver chip “strikes” at any time, can this screen still be reliable? Yes, the quality of raw materials is the cornerstone of the display screen. High-quality LED lamp beads are not only high in brightness and color but also have a long life and can accompany you through countless nights.

The high-performance driver chip is like the “brain” of the display screen, allowing all instructions to be executed quickly and accurately. Of course, there is also the “neural network” of the circuit board. If there is a problem with it, the signal transmission will be messed up. Therefore, when choosing a screen, don’t forget to ask about the “origin” of these core components.

2). Production process:

Do you know? A good display screen has to go through many “toughening” processes from the production line. Welding, dust and waterproof treatment, assembly… Every step tests the craftsmanship of the manufacturer. Poor welding is like a tooth that has fallen out and has not been repaired.

It looks awkward and is not safe to use; dust and waterproof treatment are not in place, just like forgetting to bring an umbrella on a rainy day, and you will “catch a cold” if you are not careful; a small error in the assembly may make the whole screen look like a puzzle that is not well assembled, which is neither beautiful nor stable. Therefore, when looking at the screen, don’t forget to look at these details; they are “hidden” quality indicators!

3). Design and R&D:

Don’t look at the simple appearance of the display screen; in fact, there is a lot of “black technology” hidden inside. A small defect in the design may make the whole screen “ruined.” For example, if the heat dissipation system is not well designed, the display screen is like a “small stove,” roasting the components inside every day.

How can it not be broken? The circuit design, if it is unreasonable, is like traffic congestion; the signal cannot be transmitted, and the display screen is “stuck.” Therefore, when choosing a screen, you must also see whether it has the support of “wisdom” behind it and whether it has been rigorously tested to ensure that there are no “hidden” faults.

In general, the quality of LED display screens is like a complex math problem, which requires the correct “problem-solving steps” in many aspects, such as raw materials, production processes, design, and research and development to get the correct answer.

As consumers, when choosing a screen, we must open our eyes, ask more questions, and look more, so as to find the “good screen” that really suits us.

Reason 2: Environmental factors of LED display screens

Although LED display screens are high-tech products, they are also like delicate children, and they are very picky about the environment.

Installation location, power supply voltage, and usage habits are seemingly insignificant details that are actually quietly affecting the “health” of the display screen.

1). Installation location:

Think about it: if the display screen is installed under the sun, it will be hot every day. If it is hot, it is easy to “get angry,” and the components inside will age faster; just like us, our skin will deteriorate if we are exposed to the sun for a long time.

 Or, if it is installed in a humid place, such as the seaside or the basement, the circuit board will suffer, it is easy to rust and short-circuit, and the display screen will “go on strike.”

In addition, if it is installed in a place with strong vibration, such as a factory workshop, the display screen will be like a roller coaster, bouncing around. Can there be no problems with the internal components?

2). Power supply and voltage:

Speaking of power supply, it is the “rice bowl” of the display screen. If the voltage is unstable, it is like you eat one meal and one meal, can your body be healthy? The same is true for the display screen.

If the voltage fluctuates, the circuit is easily damaged, and it may “go on strike” one day. In addition, if the power supply quality is poor, it is like the water we drink is not clean; it is full of impurities, and the signal received by the display screen is also “not clean,” and the picture may flicker and be distorted, which is uncomfortable to watch.

3). Usage habits:

You have to pay attention to the “degree” when using the display screen. Long-term continuous use is like staying up late to work overtime. Can the body bear it? The same is true for the display screen. It must be given appropriate rest time. Otherwise, it is easy to “break down.”

In addition, some people like to turn the display screen on and off frequently or adjust the brightness to a very high level. This is like turning the light on and off frequently or staring at a strong light. Can your eyes feel comfortable? The same is true for the display screen. Such an operation can easily make it “injured.”

So, when we use LED display screens, we have to be like a careful parent, find a suitable “home” (installation location) for it, provide a stable “job” (power supply and voltage), and develop good “usage habits.” In this way, the display screen can be healthy and accompany us for a longer time.

Reason 3: Insufficient maintenance and care for LED display screens

1). Cleaning and maintenance:

If your TV or computer screen is not wiped for a long time, will it accumulate a thick layer of dust? It looks blurry and affects your mood. The same is true for LED display screens, especially those installed outdoors, exposed to wind, sun, and rain, and there is a lot of dust.

This dust not only makes the display screen look dirty but, more importantly, will block the heat dissipation holes and make the display screen “hot.” If the heat dissipation is not good, the components inside will easily overheat, and after a long time, they will be “burned.”

Also, when some people clean the display screen, they just wipe it with a rag or use some unknown cleaning agents. This is not okay! Some cleaning agents are corrosive.

Once they are applied, the surface of the display screen is corroded, leaving spots that look particularly ugly. Therefore, when cleaning the display screen, you have to use professional cleaning agents or a soft dry cloth to wipe it gently and don’t “scratch” it.

2). Troubleshooting:

Did you know? LED display screens can also “get sick.” Sometimes, you may find that a small area on the display screen is not bright or the color is a little wrong. At this time, don’t take it lightly and think that this little problem is no big deal.

In fact, these minor problems are like “minor illnesses and pains” in the body. If they are not treated in time, they may become more and more serious and eventually become “major illnesses.” By then, the entire display may be unusable, and you will have to spend a lot of money to repair it.

Also, some people think they are quite capable and will repair the display by themselves if there is a problem. Little do they know that the structure inside the display is very complicated and cannot be repaired casually.

If it fails to be repaired, it will make the problem worse, which is really not worth the loss. Therefore, if there is a problem with the display, you still have to find professional maintenance personnel to repair it. They are experienced and skilled and can quickly find the problem and fix it.

3). Maintenance and care tips

  • Regular cleaning: According to the use environment and frequency of the display, give it a “bath” regularly to keep it clean.

  • Professional maintenance: If there is a problem with the display, don’t think about it yourself, and quickly find professional maintenance personnel to help.

  • Careful observation: When using the display, pay more attention to its status. Once you find something wrong, deal with it quickly.

4. How do we avoid and deal with the newly purchased LED display breaking down?

I bought a new LED display screen, and I thought it would last for several years, but it “went on strike” not long after. How upset I felt! Don’t worry; today, we will talk about how to avoid and deal with this so that your display screen can “live a hundred years.”

1). Be careful when buying

  • Choose a brand and look at the reputation:

When buying an LED display screen, you must first choose those big brands with high reputation.

Why? Because their quality control is strict and their after-sales service is reliable.

Don’t forget to check if the product has any certifications, such as CE and RoHS, which are all quality assurances. Also, go online to see how people evaluate this product. If there are many good reviews, it is basically reliable.

  • Read the instructions carefully and ensure they meet your needs:

Don’t rush to throw it aside after getting the product instructions. You have to take a closer look to see if the technical parameters meet your needs. For example, resolution and refresh rate must match your usage scenario. Don’t buy it back and find that it doesn’t work, and it will be embarrassing.

2). Find a “good place” for the display

  • The environment must be suitable:

Where to install the LED display is a big question. Don’t let it be exposed to extreme environments, such as being exposed to the sun or being as humid as a water curtain cave. Find a place with good ventilation and moderate temperature and humidity so that the display can work “comfortably.”

  • The power supply must be stable:

The power supply is the “rice bowl” of the LED display, and it must be ensured to be stable. Use a voltage-stabilized power supply and check the circuit regularly to prevent the voltage from fluctuating and damaging the display.

3). Daily maintenance is essential

  • Regular cleaning to maintain the “appearance”:

After using the LED display for a long time, it is inevitable that some dust will accumulate. You have to give it a “bath” regularly, wipe it with a professional cleaner or a soft dry cloth, and don’t let it be “dusty.” This not only looks comfortable but also maintains heat dissipation performance and extends its service life.

  • Reasonable adjustment, don’t be “tired”:

When using the LED display, you must follow the user manual to reasonably adjust parameters such as brightness and contrast. Don’t keep it “light” for a long time; you need to let it “rest” so that it can maintain “vitality.”

4). Keep up with after-sales service

  • Choose a brand and look at after-sales service:

When buying an LED display, you have to ask about the after-sales service. If there is a problem, can it be solved in time? You have to choose brands with good after-sales service so that you can feel at ease.

  • Keep the receipts for emergencies:

After buying the display, don’t forget to keep the purchase receipts, such as invoices and warranty cards. If the display “strikes” one day, these receipts can be your “savior” and allow you to enjoy the warranty service smoothly.

In short, to avoid the “abortion” of the newly purchased LED display, you have to work hard in four aspects: Purchase, use environment, daily maintenance, and after-sales service. In this way, your display can accompany you “healthily” through every wonderful moment.

Conclusion

In summary, the rapid damage of LED displays involves many factors. Consumers need to be vigilant, choose high-quality products and services, and pay attention to daily maintenance.

At the same time, the industry should also strengthen quality control and after-sales service to jointly promote the continuous progress of the LED display industry and allow technology to better serve society.
