Lighting Design
Tools & Calculators.
Interactive utilities for architectural lighting specifiers, engineers, and electrical contractors. Ensure high-performance integration with technical precision.
Voltage Drop Calculator
Ensure optimal luminosity and color consistency across long architectural LED runs.
**Educational Context:** Excessive voltage drop causes visible dimming and color shifting (especially on white and RGB tapes). We recommend keeping total drop below 5% for professional installations. Consider upgrading to 48V systems for extreme lengths.
Linear Segment Planner & Calculator
Automated architectural planning for individual fixtures and continuous linear runs.
**Educational Context:** Precise layout planning is essential to avoid "dark spots" at the ends of architectural runs. Use this planner to harmonize your building's physical dimensions with the modular cutting step of our LED tapes.
Power Supply Specifier Tool
Calculate required PSU capacity with professional safety overhead and suggested models.
**Educational Context:** Selecting a driver with sufficient overhead is critical for thermal stability and long-term reliability. Always factor in a safety buffer to account for environmental heat and circuit resistance.
Net Lumen & Efficacy Calculator
Estimate delivered light output factoring in lens transmittance and dimming losses.
**Educational Context:** Delivered lumens are impacted by the optical transmittance of your chosen lens. Use this calculator to ensure your design meets target lux levels once installed in a profile.
CCT Atmosphere Simulator
Visualize how different Correlated Color Temperatures impact architectural materials and mood.
Warm White
Ideal for residential living areas and hospitality. Enhances timber tones and creates a relaxing, welcoming atmosphere.
**Educational Context:** The CCT of a space dictates its psychological impact. Simulating the atmosphere before specification ensures the light quality aligns with the interior materials and intended use case.
IP Rating Zone Finder Tool
Select your installation environment to determine the required Ingress Protection rating.
Dry indoor areas only. Living rooms, bedrooms, hallways.
**Educational Context:** Selecting the correct IP Rating ensures your installation is protected against environmental ingress. From dry indoor spaces to permanent underwater immersion, specify with confidence.
Wall Wash & Beam Estimator
Estimate light spread and cutoff based on mounting distance from the vertical surface.
Calculation based on 50% Peak Intensity (FWHM).
**Educational Context:** The beam geometry and mounting distance determine the "wash" consistency on a vertical surface. Use this estimator to find the ideal offset for a uniform architectural graze.
