Fixed-color 10mm linear lighting provides one consistent color temperature, with options such as 2700K, 3000K, or 4000K, while warm-dimming lighting shifts from a brighter 3000K appearance to a warmer 1800K tone as it dims. Tunable lighting lets you adjust the white color temperature across a broader range, from 1800K to 6000K, to support different activities, moods, and times of day.

Use a 24V power supply for the listed warm-dimming 10mm tape, and follow each light’s specified maximum run and cut length during installation. Fixed-color and warm-dimming tape supports compatible forward-phase or adaptive-phase dimmers, while fully tunable tape uses DMX or DALI with a lighting gateway, or Zigbee with a compatible control module.

For recessed and surface-mounted 10mm linear lighting, use the fixed-color extrusion and lens, which includes a frosted lens to diffuse light and help reduce visible LED dotting. For in-wall applications, choose the mud-in extrusion and lens, while the 45-degree extrusion and lens suits angled installations such as window frames, display cases, and corners.

Plan each cut from the tape light’s marked cut points, which may be about 1.96, 2.46, or 3.94 inches apart, and keep the total run within the specific light’s rated maximum, which ranges from 16.4 to 27 feet across this assortment. Select an aluminum extrusion for surface or recessed mounting, in-wall installations, or 45-degree corner applications, and place 10mm tape on the channel side walls for mud-in installations when needed to help reduce spotting.
