Are LED tape lights dimmable?
Is all LED tape dimmable? Yes. Every product in InStyle’s LED tape range is dimmable. LED strip lights are dimmable only if wired to a suitable dimmable transformer or controller.
Can RGB LED make warm white?
While an RGB LED Strip can produce any colour, the warm white light that such a strip can create is only an approximation. After all, an RGB LED only consists of three colours: a red, green and blue one! Real (warm) white light consists of a mixture of all possible colours, which an RGB LED simply can’t produce.
How do you make warm white LED lights?
If you’re specifically looking to convert your cool LED bulbs to warmer color temperatures, you need orange or red gels. These are often called CTOs (color temperature orange). Depending on the strength, orange gels can neutralize a cool LED or completely transform it into a warm white.
Why do my LED strip lights get dimmer?
When electricity travels through a conductor (such as a wire or an LED strip) it encounters resistance. LED strips are designed to run at an optimal voltage. Above this voltage, your LEDs output more light than they were designed for, generate more heat, and fail quicker. Below this voltage, and your LEDs get dim.
Can LED lights use a dimmer?
A standard dimmer switch cannot be used with an LED light as you will never be able to dim the LED light either completely or not very well. LED lights need their own special electronic dimmer switch to have a fully functioning and dimming light.
How do you make LED lights dimmable?
Simply connect the two output wires from the power supply to the dimmer unit, and then the two input wires from the LED strip. The dimmer simply acts like a valve, and the power supply unit will automatically provide the rated current and voltage to depending on the dimmer’s knob position.

Do LED strips get dimmer over time?
LED bulbs will get progressively dimmer throughout their life until they stop producing light altogether due to lumen degradation. Most LEDs have an L70 rating, which denotes how many hours the bulb will last before it hits 70% of its initial light offering.
What kind of dimmer switch do I need for LED lights?
Trailing edge dimmers work best with LED light bulbs and leading-edge dimmers work best with traditional incandescent and halogen light bulbs.
