KEY PRODUCT FEATURES
01 Dual-Channel LED Integration — RGB + CCT on a Single Platfor
The YS-RN3838Q560 places two proven LED technologies side by side on a 10 mm flexible PCB: 3838 RGB chips for saturated, multi-color output and 2835 dual-CCT chips for adjustable white light. Unified RGBCW control eliminates the need to specify separate color-changing and tunable-white strips within the same project, simplifying procurement, installation, and control-system integration.
02 High Color Rendering Index (CRI ≥ 80) for True-Color Accuracy
A CRI of ≥ 80 ensures that illuminated surfaces, merchandise, artwork, and architectural finishes appear natural and vivid. For retail display, hospitality, and residential applications where color fidelity drives purchasing decisions and user experience, accurate color rendering is non-negotiable—and the YS-RN3838Q560 delivers.
03 120° Wide-Angle, Glare-Free Illumination
The 120° beam angle produces smooth, uniform light distribution across ceilings, coves, shelving, and wall surfaces. The glare-free output qualifies this strip for prolonged-use environments including bedrooms, home offices, hotel rooms, and retail floors, contributing to occupant comfort and reducing eye strain.
04 Advanced 3-Layer PCB with Enhanced Copper Thermal Management
Constructed on a 3-layer PCB with a 1OZ copper foil trace layer and a 2OZ integral copper thermal plane, the YS-RN3838Q560 achieves superior heat dissipation compared to standard single-layer LED strip products. Effective thermal management extends LED lifespan, reduces lumen depreciation over time, and maintains consistent color point stability throughout the product's service life.
05 DC 24V Safe Low-Voltage Operation
Operating at DC 24V, the YS-RN3838Q560 complies with international low-voltage safety standards for residential and commercial installations. The 24V platform reduces resistive losses over longer runs compared to 12V systems and simplifies regulatory compliance, making this strip suitable for both DIY consumers and professional electrical contractors.
06 High Installation Flexibility — 100 mm Cutting, Φ20 mm Bending
A minimum bending diameter of just Φ20 mm allows the strip to conform to curved ceiling coves, rounded cabinet edges, and irregular architectural profiles without cracking the substrate or stressing solder joints. The 100 mm precision cutting interval provides granular length adjustment, minimizing material waste on custom installations.
07 Stable Power Delivery and Proven Long-Term Reliability
Rated at 18–20 W/m with a typical operating power of 15 W/m, the strip balances luminous output with energy efficiency for extended operational cycles. Standardized current parameters support large-scale and multi-zone installations without over-specification. Each production batch undergoes tens of thousands of switching-cycle tests at the factory before shipment, and the product is backed by a 3-year official warranty.

PERFORMANCE IN PRACTICE
Residential & Mainlight-Free Interior Design
The YS-RN3838Q560 is a natural fit for the growing "no main light" interior design trend, where distributed LED strip lighting replaces traditional central ceiling fixtures to create layered, designer-quality illumination. In living room coves, the strip delivers warm 2700K–3000K output for movie-watching relaxation; switched to 4000K–5000K neutral white for home-office tasks; and programmed to dynamic RGB color-changing mode for social gatherings and entertainment. Its compact 10 mm width enables fully concealed installation within ceiling recesses, preserving the clean, uninterrupted lines that define contemporary minimalist interiors. The 100 mm cut interval ensures accurate sizing for any room geometry, and the Φ20 mm bending radius accommodates curved ceiling details without visible joints or breaks.
Commercial Retail & Point-of-Sale Display Lighting
In retail environments, lighting quality directly influences purchasing behavior. The YS-RN3838Q560's CRI ≥ 80 output accurately renders the true colors of clothing, jewelry, footwear, and accessories, enhancing the perceived quality of displayed merchandise. Installed at the base of display racks, it delivers uniform, shadow-free illumination across the full shelf face, eliminating dark spots that undermine product presentation. LED strip lighting along display-window perimeters increases storefront visual visibility and draws pedestrian attention. The color temperature and color mode can be dynamically adjusted to align with seasonal campaigns, promotional themes, or brand identity requirements. Long switching-cycle ratings and anti-aging construction ensure dependable performance under the continuous-operation demands of high-footfall retail and shopping-mall environments.

Frequently Asked Questions About RGBCW LED Strip Lights
Q1: What is an RGBCW LED strip light?
An RGBCW LED strip combines RGB color-changing LEDs with dual-CCT white LEDs on a single strip. Unlike standard RGB strips (which can't produce quality white light) or CCT-only strips (no color), RGBCW gives you 16.7 million colors and full tunable white light from 2700K–6500K—all controlled from one system.
Q2: Is a 24V LED strip better than 12V?
Yes, for most installations. 24V systems have lower current draw, which means less voltage drop over long runs and more even brightness end-to-end. They're also the preferred choice for professional and commercial projects.
Q3: How do I cut and install this flexible LED strip?
Cut only at the marked 100 mm intervals using sharp scissors. Peel the adhesive backing and press firmly onto a clean, dry surface. For curved surfaces, the Φ20 mm minimum bending radius lets it follow tight contours without cracking. Don't exceed the 5,000 mm maximum single-run length.
Q4: Why does CRI matter, and what CRI does this strip have?
CRI measures how accurately a light source renders colors compared to natural daylight. This strip has CRI ≥ 80—meaning clothing, food, and merchandise look natural and true-to-life rather than washed out. Essential for retail display and anywhere color fidelity matters.
Q5: What color temperature should I use for each room?
• 2700K–3000K — bedrooms, living rooms, restaurants (warm, relaxing)
• 3500K–4000K — kitchens, home offices (balanced, functional)
• 5000K–6500K — retail displays, workspaces (crisp, high-visibility)
• RGB mode — entertainment, events, accent lighting
Q6: How do I calculate what size power supply I need?
Multiply your strip length (meters) by the wattage per meter (max 18–20 W/m), then add a 20–25% safety buffer. Example: 4 m × 18 W = 72 W → choose a 24V driver rated for at least 90 W.
Q7: Is this LED strip waterproof?
Multiple IP ratings are available. IP20 for dry indoor use; IP65 for splash-prone areas like bathrooms and covered outdoor soffits; IP67/IP68 for direct rain exposure or submerged outdoor installations. Match the IP rating to your worst-case environment.
Q8: What controller do I need for RGBCW LED strips?
You need a 5-channel (R/G/B/WW/CW) RGBCW controller rated for 24V DC. Options range from basic RF remotes to Wi-Fi smart controllers compatible with Alexa, Google Home, and Tuya—through to DMX decoders for large commercial installations.
Q9: How long do LED strip lights last?
Under normal conditions (8–12 hrs/day), expect ≥ 30,000 hours—roughly 8–10 years. The 3-layer copper PCB construction helps manage heat, which is the biggest factor in LED longevity. This product carries a 3-year manufacturer warranty.
Q10: How do LED strip lights compare to fluorescent or neon flex lighting?
LED strip lights use up to 70% less energy, last 3–5× longer, contain no mercury, produce less heat, and offer full color and dimming control—none of which fluorescent or traditional neon flex can match. For any new installation, LED is the clear choice technically and economically.
