LED-Strips colour

LED strips with RGB (red, green, blue) LEDs are ideally suited for freely adjusting any colour and are therefore the right choice when it comes to effect lighting. However, do not use RGB strips for general lighting. Although it is possible to create white tones by mixing red, green and blue in the right ratio, this will always be an inferior, unnatural white with very poor colour rendering.

If you want to realise freely adjustable lighting that can produce both high-quality white and effect colours, choose RGBW strips. These have an additional white LED and thus produce a high-quality, colour-neutral white, as well as a filled-in light spectrum with good colour rendering.

Notes:

To control the colour effects, we offer a wide range of high-quality RGB & RGBW drivers.

The product group "LED strips" can also be found under the synonyms Flexband, LED band, LED strip or LED stripe.

Thereby all 4 colors are integrated in one LED housing. This means that you no longer have alternating white and RGB LEDs on the flex strip and thus a harmonious light distribution even at short distances. An ideal solution e.g. for effect lighting applications in confined areas! This version is waterproof with a silicone coating in IP54 and therefore the right choice for all outdoor applications or e.g. also in the bathroom. The advantage over other waterproof RGBW LED strips is the small width of only 12mm. However, the strip is not suitable for an underwater application. Here you need at least IP68. Available versions 5m roll IP54 water protection with silicone coating, incl. 10cm connection cable. All variants have a 3M adhesive tape on the back for mounting and can be divided every 10cm. Attention: Soldering new connection cables is extremely difficult with potted LED strips with IP54, because the silicone must first be completely removed from the soldering points. So if you are planning elaborate assemblies with sections of different lengths, you should prefer IP67 LED strips (with silicone tubing) to the potted IP54 variant. Notes on accessories: To operate 5m (1 roll) of LED strips, a 12 or 24V power supply with min. 110 Watt is required. 5m x 19.2W/m + 10% safety = 110 Watt. https://shop.led-studien.de/de/zubehor/netzteile For a color control of the 5m in 24V version a RGBW controller (4 channel) with min. 4 x 1,3 Amp is needed. 110W / 24V / 4 = 1,2 Ampere. https://shop.led-studien.de/de/controller/standard-rgbw Answers to frequently asked questions can be found in our FAQ.

3D light simulation - What brightness is achieved?

Professional 3D light simulation of your room Detailed result with brightness values and light distribution in the room E.g. for indirect lighting, solutions with LED profiles or lighting with LED spots You will receive results by e-mail within 5 working days With most lighting solutions in private or commercial rooms, a certain brightness is to be achieved. Especially when it comes to a room's main lighting. A simple light simulation can answer the following questions: What brightness can I expect if I use components xy? How uniform will the light distribution be in the room? Do I have to use brighter LED strips / LED spots to achieve my goal? The result of the light simulation shows the light distribution in the room in a clear graphic. You can immediately see which brightnesses are to be expected and where something should be adjusted if necessary. In order for the light simulation to provide the most precise results, the following information is required: Floor plan of the room with all dimensions (clearly legible!) Ceiling height of the room (ridge and knee height if applicable, if there are sloping roofs) Wall and ceiling colours or wall and ceiling design of the room, so that we can estimate the reflective properties of these surfaces. Detailed drawings of any coving, ceiling suspensions or stucco mouldings that have already been planned, including dimensions. Photos, if necessary, so that we can better assess the project. After ordering the light simulation, you will receive a personal e-mail from us to which you can send all the necessary data. You will receive the results of the light simulation by e-mail after 5 working days at the latest.

LED spectral measurement

You receive a spectral measurement and evaluation of an LED strip or an LED module. One LED each is measured at 3 different points from a roll purchased in the shop. The measurement protocol as PDF contains: 3 x spectrum from 340-750nm3 x colour temperature3 x colour location in the CIE1931 diagram3 x colour rendering index (CRI) as well as the values of all test colours. This is particularly useful for projects where absolute accuracy in light colour is important. This gives you a very precise, professional indication of the colour parameters of the LEDs. For later re-orders, for example, you can compare how well the batches match.

Control

Special LED controllers, such as our LK55 or the ZigBee variant LK115-U, are needed to adjust the colour temperature. The LK55 offers various radio control options, such as handheld remote controls and wall-mounted models. The LK115-U is designed for control via app (e.g. PHILIPS HUE or ALEXA). Controllers for other smarthome systems such as KNX, DALI, EnOcean, Zigbee etc. are also available. As well as variants for DMX.

Of course, these controllers allow flexible dimming from 0 - 100 in addition to setting the colour temperature.

What is the difference between the individual LED strips?

Depending on the application, you should select the appropriate LED tape from our range. Important criteria are:

What do the indications "3in1" and "4in1" on the LED strips mean?

Older RGB LED strips used separate LEDs for red, green & blue, which were mounted next to each other at sometimes larger distances on the flex strip. With shorter distances (e.g. for indirect lighting or in combination with milky covers on aluminium profiles), this led to unclean colour mixes and multicoloured shadows.

Modern RGB LED strips use 3in1 LEDs in which red, green & blue LED chips are installed in a single LED. In this way, perfect colour mixing is achieved even at the shortest distance.

RGBW LED strips use the same concept with 4in1 LEDs. In addition to the RGB chips, a white LED chip is also installed in a single LED.

What is the advantage of "COB"?

COB LED strips have no visible individual LEDs. The chips are covered with a phospore layer over the entire 5m roll, creating a completely uniformly illuminated strip of light. This is particularly advantageous for all applications in visible areas or where the LEDs are a very short distance from the wall or ceiling.

What are NEONFLEX Stips?

In NEONFLEX strips, the LED strips are encased in a milky-white silicone sleeve. This means that no (or almost no - depending on the model) individual LEDs are visible and a continuous coloured light band is created. Nevertheless, NEONFLEX strips can still be bent easily and curves or even large-format lettering and logos can be created very well. However, pay attention to the bending orientation of the NEONFLEX strips! Some can be bent horizontally (e.g. for lettering), others vertically.

When do I need IP20, IP54, IP67 or IP68 tapes?

The IP rating for LED strips (and also for many other products) describes the water resistance. In other words, whether an LED strip can be used outdoors in the rain or even underwater.

The vast majority of strips are classified IP20, i.e. they have no water protection whatsoever. For most applications, this is not necessary and additional IP protection would only increase costs and installation effort and (slightly) reduce service life and brightness.

However, if an LED strip is to be used outdoors, for example, it usually has to be rainproof. In this case, a degree of protection of min. IP23 is required, e.g. IP54 or IP67. IP67 is the most common. Usually, the LED strips have a silicone cover that protects the LEDs. With IP54, instead of the silicone cover, there is a silicone coating directly on the LEDs. The water resistance is the same and the strip is somewhat narrower because the silicone cover has been dispensed with. However, it is very difficult and time-consuming to attach new connection cables to IP54 LED strips. For this purpose, the entire silicone layer must be scraped off at the solder contacts. With IP67 LED strips, you only have to cut away the silicone cover a little.

Neither IP54 nor IP67 are suitable for permanent underwater use! For example, in a pool. In this case, IP68 tapes must be used, where a silicone coating is combined with an additional silicone cover.
