Light that runs, chases and flows along the line
A WS2811 pixel strip for 12V and 24V systems. Each pixel is controlled on its own, so a single strip can run, pulse and sweep.
A strip with a sense of direction
A normal strip is either on or off. A WS2811 strip has a small control chip that drives each group of LEDs as a pixel, so light can travel from one end to the other, pulse in waves, or streak like a comet.
That movement gives a facade, a sign or a stage edge a direction and a rhythm. It guides the eye along a building line, draws attention to an entrance, or sets the pace at an event.
The strip uses three wires: supply, data and ground. A pixel controller sends the effect down the single data line, and the strip follows it. Effect, speed and colour are set from the controller.
One strip, many movements
The effects come from the controller, so the same installed strip can be changed for a festival, a launch or a season.
Running chase
A point or short block of light travels the length of the strip and repeats, ideal for edges, stair risers and signage outlines.
Wave, comet and twinkle
Soft waves, fading comet tails and sparkle effects add depth to feature walls, ceilings and display fronts.
Data runs in one direction, from the input end to the far end. Lay out the strip so the run follows the path you want the light to travel, and keep the controller close to the start.
Choose the voltage for the length of the run
Pixel strips are made for 12V and 24V systems. Use 24V where runs are long, since it draws less current for the same power. Inject power at regular intervals and add a data repeater on very long chains.
What you get with WS2811
Pixel-level control
Each pixel switches and dims independently of its neighbours.
12V or 24V
Suits low-voltage pixel systems of different run lengths.
Three-wire connection
Supply, data and ground keep wiring simple and tidy.
Wide controller support
Works with SD card, RF, app-based and DMX-to-pixel controllers.
Cuttable and flexible
Cut at the marked points and bend around corners and curves.
Reprogrammable effects
Change the pattern from the controller without rewiring.
Where chasing light works
Building facades
Running light along rooflines and edges.
Signage and letters
Animated outlines on fascia and channel letters.
Retail windows
Moving accents that draw footfall.
Stages and events
Synced effects on trusses and set edges.
Staircases
Stepwise light that follows the climb.
Ceilings and feature walls
Slow waves across coves and panels.
Festival decor
Seasonal displays and celebration lighting.
Entertainment venues
Bars, clubs and gaming zones.
Installation and specification questions
Describe the effect, we will match the strip and controller
Share the run length, voltage and the look you want, and we will recommend the strip, power supply and controller.
