- Decide if you need colour - if you only ever want white, this is the tape. RGB CCT costs more, needs a five channel controller, and carries colour emitters you will not switch on.
- Buy a two channel CCT controller - tunable white uses warm and cool channels. A three channel RGB controller will not drive it properly.
- Pick the voltage by run length - 12V under about 16 feet, 24V beyond.
- Save two settings once installed - a cooler one for working and a warmer one for the evening is what people actually use.
- Fit it in an aluminium channel - for the look and to pull heat away.
- Size the driver - watts per metre times run length, plus 20 percent.
- Cut only at the marked points.
Warm to cool on the same run
Single colour tape is fixed at the factory. Pick 2700K and that is what you have for the life of the installation. This one carries both warm and cool emitters, and a controller mixes between them anywhere from 2700K to 6500K.
No colour, no effects. Just white light you can move along the scale, which is what most rooms actually need.

Where tunable white earns its place
- A kitchen that is also a dining room — 4000K while you cook, 2700K once you sit down.
- A home office that becomes a guest room — cool for work, warm for the evening.
- Hospitality — cooler in the morning, warmer as the day goes on.
- A room that faces north — warmer light in winter, cooler in summer, to balance the daylight coming in.
Two channels, not three
Tunable white uses two channels: warm and cool. A three channel RGB controller will not drive it properly, and a five channel RGB+CCT controller is more than you need. Order a controller built for CCT tape.
Tunable white or RGB+CCT
If you only ever want white, this is the tape to buy. RGB+CCT costs more, needs a five channel controller, and carries colour emitters you will never switch on. Choose colour capability only if you will actually use it.
