Technical Specifications Explained

Lumen Output (1300 lm/m): At 12W/m with 100-110 lm/W efficacy, this strip delivers approximately 1300 lumens per meter — appropriate for general ambient lighting.

CRI RA80: RA80 meets industry standards for general commercial lighting and provides natural color rendering for most applications. For color-critical environments, consider our RA90 models.

DC12V/24V: Dual voltage design supports both DC12V and DC24V with the same PCB. DC24V is recommended for runs over 3 meters due to lower voltage drop and reduced current draw.
