Strip lighting is often utilized in a number of locations, including workshops, closets, and beneath kitchen cabinets. It may be utilized to offer task lighting for certain chores like cooking or crafts or to provide accent lighting to these areas. The following advice will help you install strip lighting:
1. For your purposes, choose the appropriate kind of strip lighting. There are many different kinds of strip lighting on the market, so it's critical to choose the one that best meets your requirements. Warm white LED strips, like our Premium Luma5 LED strips, are recommended for accent lighting.
2. Our 24V COB lighting is a wonderful alternative if your lighting project requires a stronger, brighter, general light output.
The area where the strip lights will be installed should be measured. You'll know exactly how many LED strips you need for the project after reading this. Finding the ideal length will enable you to calculate the necessary power. Additionally, it will assist you in choosing the proper LED strip depending on length. You'll be provided with the appropriate wiring choices you need to make sure that correct power and lighting are achieved.
3. Where you'll be putting the strips, clean the surface. This will make it more likely that the strips will attach correctly and stay there over time. If you want to have a cleaner and more fashionable installation, it is also a good idea to utilize tracks or aluminum channels.
4. To the surface, apply the strips. Each strip should be uniformly spaced apart and flat on the ground. Use strong adhesive mounting tape as a finishing touch before completing the installation if you're working on a permanent installation to make it stronger and more secure.
5. To power the strips, connect them to a power source or a dimmable driver. You may utilize a dimming controller to increase versatility and provide better illumination.
You may use an inline dimmer controller or a low voltage dimming controller if you utilize a power supply.
If you chose a dimmable driver, you can manage the LED strip's dimming feature by pairing it with an in-wall dimmer switch.
