🎯 Understanding Bend Types

Choosing the right bend type ensures the light fits the form of your space:

  • 🔄 Front Bend: Light emits from the flat front surface (great for signage, surface outlines, linear installations).

  • ➡️ Side Bend: Light emits from the narrow side (ideal for curving around walls, corners, ceilings).

  • ⬇️ Back Bend (not in current SKUs but helpful info): Light glows downward—used for cove or under-cabinet lighting.

💡 Pro Tip: Use front bend for directional visibility and side bend for smooth curves or outlining shapes.

  • RGB / RGBW: Custom color control via controller (events, commercial signs).

 


 

🔧 How to Install

  3. Use the Right Power Supply: 24V DC transformer or driver.

  4. Seal Connectors for Outdoors: Use end caps and silicon glue for waterproofing.
