Sunset Strip LED Tape 120 LED/M Dim Tone 18W/M 1800-3000K

Sunset Strip LED tape that dims in colour temperature as it dims in brightness. Creating a warm, glowing lighting effect that mimics the sun as it sets on a warm summers evening. At full brightness it produces a bright white 3000K effect which is perfect for task lighting and dims to a beautiful orange glow.

This high performance product is brand new, with 120 LEDs per metre and an energy consumption of 18W per metre, it produces an impressive 1460 lumens per metre. Containing dedicated LED chips for each colour tone effect, that switches between each chip type as you adjust the brightness. No special controllers are required, as it works with an LED compatible dimmer switch and mains dimmable LED driver.

Ideal for kitchen lighting as you get the best of both worlds; a bright lighting effect for cooking under that allows you to clearly see what you're chopping. As the night gets dark and you dim your lights, the ultra warm ambient lighting effect makes your environment look picturesque like the sunset setting in your own kitchen.

With higher colour rendering, the Sunset Strip LED tape has a 90CRI rating which helps to reproduce colours more effectively and produces a superior quality of light.

It is self adhesive and can be stuck to any surface, helping to make installations much easier. For an added effect it can be mounted inside an aluminium profile rail to diffuse the light to provide a dot-free, seamless lighting effect.

How to Order?

As this is a 24V dimmable LED tape; you're going to need a mains dimmable 24V LED driver and a dimmer switch. The size of the driver is dependent on the total length of LED tape (or tapes) that you're connecting. At 18W per metre, you could use a 25W driver to power up to 1.3 metres, or a 100W driver will power up to 5.5 metres. We also have bigger LED drivers available, up to 300W, see table below.

Then to dim the strip, you'll need an LED compatible dimmer switch such as Varilight V-Pro or Hamilton LEDStat. Or if you want something more advanced, like a Smartphone dimming system, the Lightwave Smart Series dims it perfectly and allows you to set scenes that include any other lights on your system. You'll need a Lightwave Smart switch and Wi-Fi Hub. You can only use one LED driver per Lightwave gang.

If you need further information or have a complicated kitchen lighting layout with multiple cupboards, please email us at: [email protected] and we can send you a quotation with everything you need. We also offer a bespoke cutting and soldering service which can include input cables of any length you need.
