LED Strip Tape Colour Changing High Output

Bright, colour changing LED strip tape that unlocks an entire spectrum of colour changing effects. The RGB (Red, Green, Blue) version uses the primary colours to provide a multitude of colour changing choices. While the RGBW (Red, Green, Blue & White) also includes a dedicated white 4000K LED chip; with warm white included for the RGBWW 3000K version.

LED strip tape provides a continuous array of light that can be cut down to the size you require. It can also be extended to infinitely longer lengths by integrating additional accessories and LED drivers into the run.

As part of our own LED Strip Fit brand of products we can supply LED tape made to measure to the exact lengths you require. We can include soldered input and output cables or plug-in pins for bends and corners. This way no wastage is necessary and valuable time can be saved during installations.

Which LED Tape?

RGB LED colour changing tape allows you t unleash the full colour spectrum with blues, greens, reds and everything in-between. The downside of RGB is that is doesn't have a true white. When you switch to white, its a really 'off-white shade' with a really high kelvin rating of around 7000K, difficult for task lighting like chopping food or reading cook books.

The more advanced RGB+W and RGB+WW offers a mixture of colour changing LED tape with a dedicated cool or warm white all in one. You can either select a static colour, or mix any of the colours just like RGB. You can select the white colour temperature when you need to see more clearly what you're doing, which is ideal for cooking etc. Another key selling feature of this version is mixing the primary colours with warm or cool white which produces some unique orange and pink effects.

The RGB+CCT features colour changing with colour temperature adjustable in one. You have the colour changing effects as well as an impressive colour temperature range of 2400K - 6500K.

To select the correct LED driver (also known as an LED power supply or LED transformer) follow these 4 rules:

1. The voltage of the LED tape must match the LED driver. If the LED tape is 12V, the LED driver must be 12V.
2. The wattage rating of the LED driver must be big enough to carry the full load of the LED tape, or the total lengths x wattage of tapes that you're connecting to it. Our LED drivers can be loaded to 100%, a 60W driver means 60W.
3. Colour changing LED tapes require a non dimmable driver as the dimming is done by the controller.
4. If in doubt please contact us, if you email your requirements to us we'll get back to you quickly and answer any other questions you have. Ordering LED tape can seem complicated especially if you're new to it but we've been selling this for over 6 years and consider ourselves experts in this field.

Which Controller?

We offer a selection of basic controllers from IR (Infra-Red) which requires a direct line of site for it to operate. We also have RF (Radio-Frequency) versions that operate from further distances. We have controllers available for single zone and multiple zone use.

Our latest range of controllers are easier to operate with the Gledopto series that can be controlled from your smartphone or with a handheld remote or wall controller. These receivers can be connected to a zone of LED tape and allow you to control individual or multiple lights individually or all at once. We have Wi-Fi receivers that work with the Tuya App here, or a multifunction version that works with the Smart Life or the Philips Hue App here.

Cable Connections

As standard RGB LED tape comes with a 4 core cable, 150mm input cable.

With 5 bare wires for RGB+W and RGB+WW and 6 wires for RGB+CCT. Each with a length of 150mm on the input side. You can now order different input cable lengths within the products options. Or if you would like soldered input tails or output connections we can offer this service. Input cables can be ordered online or email us for anything complicated and we'll arrange everything for you. We charge £3 +VAT per solder.

We also have a range of solder-less connectors called Hippo connectors with 4 pin versions available for use with RGB including IP20 and IP65.

Information About IP Ratings

We offer 3 different IP (Ingress Protection) ratings which offer different resistances to dust and water. Ranging from IP20 which has no water resistance to IP68 LED tape which is fully water and dust resistant, generally used outdoors. The most popular version is IP20 as it offers adequate protection for the majority of applications and costs less. Some users prefer the IP65 rated version regardless of water risk. Its coated with a silicone glue that provides a sturdier design than IP20.
