Title says it all.

Hi everyone!

I'm part of a team renovating a student nightclub in Sweden, we are very ambitious with our goal with the club and I'm currently putting together a lighting proposal that will be presented to our board.

I've attached a few photos and videos from another nightclub that has the kind of ceiling lighting we're trying to achieve.

I'm specifically trying to identify the linear LED fixtures used in the ceiling. They produce smooth, diffused light and are capable of pixel/chase effects along each individual line.

I'm mainly hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

• What would you call this type of fixture?
• Anyleds strips, manufacturers or product series I should look into?

Low budget if possible..
Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I bought this string of leds and it came with a basic controller with some built in patterns and colors you can click through. Works great on 5v. I tried to buy controllers on amazon that said they were 5v but it needed 12v for the controller to work, which of course fried the led strip.

Can anyone link me to a 5v controller like what is included here and similar to the ones i linked but actually works on 5v?

I'm trying to find a connector that will work for my LED strip. Unfortunately it doesn't match any of the various ones I've found searching, so hopefully someone will recognize it and point me in the right direction. It would be very helpful if I could be pointed to a lead wire that has the connector I need for purchase.

The connector is six pins. The pins are roughly 0.5mm diameter with a 1.6mm pitch. The pictured strip is identical to the one I need this for. I can't remove the other strip to just remove the header and solder wires.

I've used GE Cync smart LED strips before and liked them, but they claim that you can't connect multiple cut segments, e.g. for lighting shelves in a bookcase. This appears to be the case for all the smart LED strips I can find out there.

But the strip is just a 4 pin RGB with 24v on each end. Can you really not just link between them by soldering or with 4-pin solderless connectors? Has anyone here tried and succeeded/failed with a smart LED strip?

Is there a smart strip that does allow links, connectors, or soldering?

My goal is to add strip lighting to a bookshelf, so I need to jump between shelves somehow, which I could do with non-smart LED strips and plug into a smart outlet instead. But that means controlling the light color/brightness through a separate app for the controller, and it would be really nice to have those controls in Apple Homekit where all my other house lighting lives. So, could certainly live without this, but it'd be much nicer not to.

I got this 4-channel DMX decoder to experiment around with some custom lighting for a theatrical project i’m working on. I had intended to shop around for LED lights that were explicitly compatible, but I remembered I had this old LED strip sitting in storage. I do not have packaging or any instructions for this LED light strip, I’ve had it for a long time and I’ve never used it, which is why I had no problem opening up the circuit board box. consequently, I know nothing about these LED lights that I can’t see (there’s not even a brand printed anywhere). I have included however a link to the decoder I bought.

My guess is that they are not compatible, as the decoder needs a separate wire for RBGW LEDS. Based on the DI/DO connections, I assume the RGB elements are all linked on the same part of the circuit, and that there are data pathways all on that line to control the RGB individually? Maybe itself not unlike DMX?

However, I figured I’d get what feedback that I could here, in case there was anything I could do to adapt. Or in case I was just dead wrong. LMK if there are any questions or clarification needed!
