CCT tunable kitchen cabinet led strip lighting KIT 7,2W/m strip (with wireless dimmer)

TUNNELMA LED strip light for kitchen partition set

Warm or cool light? Help I can't decide! Not to worry, as a temperature adjustable LED strip for the kitchen is perfect for any kitchen atmosphere, usually on plinths or on top of cabinets. At the touch of a button you can choose your preferred shade between 2500-6500K. So with the wireless dimmer, you can conveniently control lights that only have electricity coming from the wall, but don't have their own wall switch (often old kitchens that used to have switchable fluorescent tubes).

Includes

Temperature adjustable TUNNELMA LED strip light for kitchen set includes:

• 5 metres of 7.2W/m SOLO CCT led strip
• 7 LED LED LED light bulb with 2 x 7 LED CCL C LED light source, suitable power supply including wireless Zigbee receiver
• VaLO Zigbee series wireless push button (the button can be placed on the wall or kept detached)
• two surface-mountable aluminium profiles (length 2,5m per profile). Choice of several different profiles.
• 5 m 3-pole cable and 2 quick connectors

About

With a luminous intensity of 7.2/m tape at 500 lumens per metre the paper has a more atmospheric light output for white kitchens. The base colour of the strip is white, but you won't see it as it is always mounted on the included aluminium profile and the 3M special tape on the LED strip ensures a good fixing to the profile. The LED strip is 3mm thick, so very unobtrusive. So with this set you get a steady, spotless light on the target. The LED circuitry we use is the newer COB technology, a model with a colour rendering index (CRI) of over 95!

Then there's the nastier stuff, namely angles and extensions. The strip has only 15cm wires at each end as standard, so by cutting it at the relevant point (every 5cm), you get two strips. So if you want to cut more, you have to connect new wires to the copper points at the cut-off point. The CCT adjustable led strip uses three (3) pole wires: +, warm and cold. Package includes 5 feet of 3 pole wire and push-on connectors to extend the wire to the driver. Led strip product description

The profile for installation in the intermediate space is IP44 from the bottom, i.e. splash-proof, and IP65 from the top, something you can install without any worries under a drying cabinet. This way you get uninterrupted light in the space between the two. Aluminium is also easy to cut with a hacksaw or a circular saw, even with a powder blade.

The included driver doubles as a Zigbee 3.0 receiver. This means you can connect the driver to your smart home and control it with a Philips HUE or Smartthings system, for example. The driver has screw connectors on both ends, so you can plug it in with a fixed or plug-in connector (included!) and the connectors can accommodate two wires from different LED strips. Product description of the driver

The wireless pushbutton comes with a 3V battery and will last 1-3 years, depending on use. The button fits all 55m standard frames seamlessly. For example Schneider EXXACT furniture series. Product description of the button

Of course, you can install this partition lights set in other places than the kitchen partition, such as on top of cabinets, on the ceiling border. The only limit is your imagination as you only need a plug, not an electrician.

Which led profile where?

A corner profile for when the led strip in the kitchen is to be on the back wall OR you want it to also act as a light bar illuminating from the front edge to the back. Also fits nicely on top of cabinets.

Low profile when the led strip in the kitchen is 5cm behind the front edge. In this case the led strip lights downwards and is in the middle of the gap. The low profile can of course also be installed on the back wall, when you want to emphasise the back wall. It also fits nicely on a plinth.

There are several colours to choose from for the low profile.

Installation

The tape should be glued to metal, such as the aluminium profile (supplied), to allow heat to be conducted away from the LED circuit. Proper cooling will prolong the life of the LED. Led tape does not bend laterally.

Installation of the strip:

1. Measure the mounting location
2. Cut the profiles (with a circular saw or hacksaw) and the LED strip to the correct length (5cm apart from the cut-off point).
3. Glue the LED strips to the profile on the table before fixing the profiles and press the covers into place.
4. Screw the profile brackets to the bottom of the cabinet.
5. OR to the base of the base cabinet for plinth installation
6. OR just throw the profile on top of the cabinet when installing on top of the cabinets
7. The brackets come in 4-5 pieces / 2,5m and snap the profiles on.
8. Run the wires from the led strip to the driver (hole in the grommets 7mm) and connect to the screw terminals.
9. Put the plug in the wall and make a pairing between the button and the driver.

Pairing the button:

1. Press the button on top of the driver four (4) times in a row FAST. 4 (four) times (four times). 4 (four) times (four) times (four) times (four) times (four) times (four).
2. 3 times (three times).
3. Press the bottom two buttons (S1 and S2) simultaneously for more than 3 seconds. The indicator light flashes rapidly
4. Hold the button next to the driver. The pairing takes about 10 seconds. The Led strip flashes three times when the pairing is successful.

Pairing of driver and button Philips HUE or other Zigbee network:

1. open "add a light" or similar in your app. The driver can be found as a new lamp and you can control it with the app.
2. Press the button on top of the driver five (5) times in a row FAST. The Led strip will flash three times.
3. Open your app to "add a fixture" or similar.
4. Press the bottom two buttons (S1 and S2) 3 times in a row.
5. NOTE! The app will NOT CREATE ANYTHING! But the Green light on the button will flash rapidly 3 times, indicating that it is paired! So the button is connected to the Zigbee network, but it is not configured in the app!
6. Press the button on top of the driver 4 times in a row FAST. The Led strip will flash three times.
7. Place the button next to the driver (10cm)
8. Press the bottom two buttons (S1 and S2) simultaneously for more than 3 seconds. The indicator light flashes rapidly
9. Hold the button next to the driver. The pairing takes about 10 seconds. The Led strip flashes three times when the pairing is successful.
10. You can control from the button AND from the app

If after the button pairing phase you can no longer control from the application, an error has occurred during the button pairing phase in the Zigbee network. So even if the app "can't find the lamp", following the button's indicator light will show that it's connected to something. This is important! So the button has to be on the same network. If you didn't succeed the first time.. start over from point 1.

Lights in between, but who is the set for?

The Lights in the Space Kit is suitable for clear, straight areas and for people who are not afraid to install and tinker.

The mood kit is specifically for mood lighting only and not as a task light in the kitchen. It is best suited on top of kitchen cabinets or on plinths.

As this set will probably require some tinkering, so if you need more than 5 metres of stuff or want everything finished to a certain size or L kitchen bend... feel free to get in touch and order everything made to measure.
