Single Color LED Strip Lights

A single-color strip uses a dedicated light source for one fixed hue and does not require a multi-channel RGB controller. It is the simpler choice for signage, accents, displays and other applications where the required color will not change.

Names such as red or blue describe broad visual categories. A published wavelength range identifies the emitted spectral band more precisely, which matters for brand color, fluorescence, inspection, sensing and other technical applications.

No. Human vision responds differently across the visible spectrum, so equal electrical power does not produce equal lumen values in different colors. UV output should be evaluated with wavelength and radiometric data rather than lumens.

The UVA strip operates at 395–405nm near the visible violet edge and is intended for blacklight and fluorescence applications. The UVC product has a 280nm peak and is a specialized ultraviolet source requiring much stricter exposure controls. The products are not interchangeable.

No. UVC can seriously damage eyes and skin and must not expose occupants during operation. It requires qualified system design, shielding, access control, warning measures and appropriate protective equipment. Review the complete product safety information before purchase or operation.

Choose Contractor Series for value-oriented 30 LEDs/m visible color, Professional Series for higher-density 60 LEDs/m output, and Architectural COB for a continuous dot-free line of red, green or blue light. Then confirm voltage, IP rating, output, cut interval and maximum run against the project.

Select voltage as part of the complete system architecture. The visible SMD strips use 12V, COB and UVC products use 24V, and the 120V plug-in product is designed for continuous runs up to 150 feet. Never connect a strip to a different voltage than its published rating.

The current low-voltage visible-color strips are PWM dimmable with a compatible dimmer. The 120V strip can work with many compatible AC dimmers, subject to minimum-load and compatibility requirements. Do not assume the same control method applies to specialized UV systems.

Most products can be cut only at their marked cut points, and the interval varies from about 2 inches to 19.7 inches. Stay within the published maximum run, use compatible connectors and power feeds, and properly reseal field cuts wherever IP protection must be maintained.

Use the product's measured power-by-length data where available, total the loads of all connected runs and add the recommended capacity headroom. Also confirm wire gauge, dimmer capacity and voltage drop before finalizing long or multi-run installations.
