Description
American Lighting Trulux Dim-to-Warm Tape Light — Standard & High Output | IP54 | 24V DC
The American Lighting Trulux Dim-to-Warm series smoothly mimics the dimming behavior of a traditional incandescent lamp. At full brightness, the CCT is 3000K; as the light dims, the color temperature automatically transitions to an ultra-warm 1800K — no additional controls required. Simply connect to a 24V DC dimmable power supply and a compatible ELV or TRIAC dimmer switch. Available in two output levels: Standard Grade (262Lm/ft, 3W/ft) and High Output (335Lm/ft, 4W/ft). Both are IP54 nano-coated for indoor dry and damp locations.
Key Features
- Voltage: 24V DC — requires a compatible 24V dimmable power supply.

- Operating Temp: 5°C (41°F) to 70°C (158°F).
- Certifications: cULus Listed for dry/damp locations.
- Rated Life: 50,000 Hours.
Which Output Level Is Right for You?
- Standard Grade (STLWD): 262Lm/ft at 3W/ft — ideal for residential under-cabinet, cove, and accent lighting where moderate output is sufficient.
- High Output (HTLWD): 335Lm/ft at 4W/ft — preferred for larger cove spans, commercial hospitality, and applications requiring 28% more lumen output with tighter LED spacing.
Core Design & Construction
Both series feature 2835 LEDs on a 10mm wide PCB with an IP54 nano-coating for moisture and dust protection. 3M VHB adhesive backing ensures secure mounting on most surfaces. Compatible with standard aluminum channels. Custom cut orders are available — please allow 2–4 weeks for processing and delivery.
LED Illumination & Performance
With a CRI of 90+ across both output levels, the Trulux Dim-to-Warm series delivers warm, accurate color rendering that naturally shifts from a crisp 3000K to an ultra-warm 1800K candlelight tone as it dims — no tunable white controller or secondary wiring required. The result is an effortless, incandescent-like dimming experience.
Power, Wiring & Installation
Requires a 24V DC dimmable power supply (sold separately). Compatible with most ELV and TRIAC (PWM) dimmers (5–100%). Cuttable every 3.94″ for precise length adjustments. Maximum continuous run is 20ft. Each reel includes pre-attached leads, tails, and hardware for straightforward installation.
