Product Information

You can dim almost any version of LED strip tape providing you've got the full set of components. If you want to dim colour changing RGB LED tape then you dim and control it using the controller, which means you need a non dimmable LED driver to power it. The controller does the dimming. One of our latest additions is the Sunset Strip LED tape. This new design of strip lighting is not only dimmable but it reduces in colour temperature as it gets dimmed. At full brightness, it produces a clear 3000K effect, then as it gets dimmed, it becomes warmer until it reaches 1800K which is at around 10% in brightness. LED strip lights use up to 85% less than traditional incandescent bulbs and about 18% less than CFLs. At first, you may find this impressive. However, this is only the beginning! By nature, LEDs are designed to last longer than their competitors. Because of this, you can utilise it for years without needing any replacements! So, what does this mean? You’ll not only lessen your electrical cost, but you can also bring down your maintenance expenses! When you compare the energy consumption of LED strip lights, an incandescent bulb and a fluorescent lamp, you'll see that LED strip lights consume way less. LEDs are the most energy-efficient among the lighting fixtures available in the market. This includes everything powered with that technology: LED bulb, LED downlight, LED strip light, LED panels, LED flood light and more! In the bathroom, white light is always the best. Since you want the room to be well-lit to avoid accidents, it's better to use white light instead of coloured ones. You can use different colour temperatures to bring out different feelings.

We have seen LED Tape used for a wide range of applications. Perhaps one of most popular uses for LED Tape is as under cabinet lighting in the kitchen. Due to its design, LED Tape lends itself exceptionally well to this type of lighting. The effect, although subtle, is very effective, offering a functional working light as well as enhancing the look and feel of the kitchen. For some, using a lavender colour helps them create a moody and relaxing atmosphere. Well, it’s also a cool toned colour, so it has the same stress-reducing effect.Almost as popular are drop ceiling projects. These are created by adding a trough or false ceiling to a room. The lights are inserted into the recess and shine up onto the ceiling creating a wash effect. Our LED Tape is available in a wide range of colours. While there is a case for arguing that certain colour work better in certain situations and for certain applications, ultimately the colour you choose will be a matter of taste. Fortunately there are plenty of options to choose from and, hopefully, something for everyone. If you are undecided on one colour you might want to try our RGB colour changing tape. These are supplied with a controller and allow you to change the colour of your tape at the touch of a button.

When looking for LED strips, you’ll come across various selections. Two of the most popular are single colour and RGB LED strips. How do the two differ? DC LED strip lights are recommended if it's your first time using this type of lighting. It has less distance between the cut line and a longer linear run. With this, you don't need to be too wary about technicalities, unlike when you're using a 12v DC strip. Also, a 24v DC LED strip suffers less voltage drop compared to a 12v DC strip.

While an LED RGB tape can produce an almost white colour in a specific setting, it's not as white as a solely dedicated white diode can deliver. If you want to have that luminance, choose a single-colour cool or natural white strip or get an RGBW LED strip. An RGBW tape is like an RGB strip but with an added white LED chip to produce that pure white hue! Do LED Strip Lights Need LED Drivers?
