Why 24V LED strip is better than 12V? Why you can’t connect long LED strips to the power supply?

Introduction

I noticed that my LED strip samples have different base thicknesses. Most samples are thin and bend easily; some are thick and hold their shape well after bending. I found only one metal in the strip base. The copper conductors transmit the power along the tape to all the LEDs. I thought that the inner conductors' different thicknesses meant different electrical characteristics. Aha! There's a lot to study here!
