LED Lighting Terminology
- Multicolor = Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, Purple, Orange, Pink, White
- RGB = multicolor + mixed white color
- RGBW = multicolor + pure white color
- RGBWA = multicolor + pure white color + amber turn signal functionality
- Flow Series / Color Chasing = multicolor + features over 100+ sequential flowing effects/ modes
- Switchback = white color only + amber turn signal functionality
Flow or RGBW Which is better?
RGBW and Flow / Color Chasing LEDs are two distinct types of LED lighting technology that cater to different needs and applications.
Flow
Flow Series or Flow or Color Chasing is the newest LED Style and features the most head-turning effects and rainbow like, flowing dynamic color combinations. Flow is great for car shows, attention, etc. Flow is slightly more complex to operate as there are so many led modes. However, you can still choose solid colors RGB colors like red, green, blue, and yellow at will through our controller. Flow does not feature a pure white color chip but does feature a mixed or (blueish white color 6500k)
Flow Series or Color Chasing LEDS, also known as IC LEDs , incorporate an integrated circuit directly into the LED. This allows each LED to be controlled individually, enabling advanced visual effects such as color chasing and sequencing. IC LEDs are perfect for applications that require dynamic, customizable, and attention-grabbing lighting effects.
RGBW
Rgbw is more simple and sometimes brighter than Flow Series/ Color Chasing LEDS. RGBW is also sometimes cheaper than Flow/ Color chasing LEDs, making it an excellent option for someone who wants multicolor functionality without all the extra modes that Flow/ Color chasing offers.
RGBW stands for Red, Green, Blue, and White. This LED technology allows for the creation of a wide spectrum of colors by combining the primary colors red, green, blue, and also includes a dedicated white chip for pure white illumination. This makes RGBW LEDs ideal for situations that require both colorful and pure white lighting.
