{"product_id":"wide-led-channel-profile","title":"Wide LED Channel Profile | 42mm Aluminium for High Output Tape","description":"\u003ch2\u003eA wide channel for wide tape\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 42mm across, this is the widest profile in the range. It takes the 12mm double-line and RGBW boards that will not fit a standard channel, and it leaves room for two strips side by side where a run needs both colour and white on separate circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe extra width also means more aluminium, and more aluminium means better heat transfer. On a high-output run that is the difference between tape holding its brightness and tape dimming after a couple of years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExtruded aluminium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e42mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiffuser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpal cover\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLengths\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1m, 2m or 3m\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMounting\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSurface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChoosing the profile width\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eProfile\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTakes tape up to\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUse it for\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7mm slim\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShadow gaps, joinery reveals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard surface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMost single-line runs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCorner 30mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnder cabinets, cove edges\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWide 42mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12mm, or two strips\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh output, double-line, RGBW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo strips in one channel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunning a white strip and a colour strip in the same profile lets one fixture do everyday light and effect light without two separate installations.
