This guide is intended to provide information on compatibility between our multicolor products and which multicolor products can be combined on the same controller and which cannot. Please note that this list covers the majority of our products however some exceptions may apply.
General Compatibility Rules
Our products are cross compatible with a wide range of other products on the same controller. To ensure compatibility, please check the following:
- LED Type: For Products to be compatible they must both be the same color style or LED type (ex: Flow, RGBW) RGBW products are only compatible with other RGBW Products. Flow Series or color chasing products are only compatible with other Flow series or color chasing products. A Flow Series or Color chasing product is not compatible with a RGBW Product on the same controller.
- (No controller) option available: If a product gives you both the options of not adding a controller and adding a controller, this generally means this product can be combined with other products on the same controller. However, you will need at least one controller for your order.
- (No controller) option not available: If a product does not give you the option of selecting no controller or includes a controller with the product by default then that means that particular products need its own controller and cannot be combined with other products.
Products that can generally be combined on the same controller
- DRL Circuit Boards
- Halo Kits and Halo Rings
- Some LED Emblems
- Grille lights
- Demon eyes
- Engine Bay Lighting
- DRL tube strips and Side emitting strips
Products that Generally need with their own separate controller
- LED Underglow
- LED Wheel Lights
- Some LED emblems
- Rock Lights
- Interior footwell lights
- RGBW Fiber optic interior lights
Ex: compatible Product orders using 1 controller:
- RGBW Grille Kit + 2022 Dodge Charger RGBW halo Kit + RGBW hellcat emblem + RGBW engine bay kit + RGBW demon eyes
- 2022 Jeep grand Cherokee Flow DRL Kit + Flow Demon eyes + Flow fiber optic kit
- Flow 80mm halos + Flow 60mm Halos + Flow DRL tube strips.
Ex: Non compatible Product orders using 1 controller:
- RGBW Grille Kit + RGBW Underglow + (with this order you would need a separate controller for both items so you would need to select yes controller on the grille kit)
- RGBW Grille Kit + Flow 2018 Mustang DRL boards (with this order you would need a separate controller for both items since LED type/ Color style is not the same, you would need to select yes controller on the grille kit as well as the mustang boards)
- Flow Underglow + Flow Wheel Lights (with this order each product will come with its own controller)
More FAQs
Can I control my Flow and RGBW products on the same controller?
No, For Products to be compatible they must both be the same color style or LED type. RGBW products are only compatible with other RGBW Products. Flow Series or color chasing products are only compatible with other Flow series or color chasing products. A Flow Series or Color chasing product is not compatible with a RGBW Product on the same controller.
However, RGB / RGBW / RGBWA products can be combined on the same controller in most cases.
How many outputs does a controller come with?
Our flow and RGBW controllers usually come with 2-8 outputs. The number of outputs you receive will be based upon your order. We will calculate how many outputs you need upon fulfillment and make sure you have the correct amount to cover all your products in your order. If you need more than 8 outputs on your order you can order splitters to increase the number of outputs on your controller.
How many outputs do your products use?
The number of outputs each product uses depends on that specific product, but most products use 1-2 outputs each. RGBW products typically use 2 outputs per component Flow products typically use 1 output per product.
How many products can I add to one controller?
We recommend trying to stay under 8 LED components per controller in order to avoid voltage loss, reduced brightness, or overloading the controller.
Example:
Halo kit = 2 LED components
DRL kit= 2 LED components
2 pc Grille kit= 2 LED components
3 pic engine bay kit= 3 led components
