LIGHT COLOUR

Every GEN2 X-Strip does all three from the two buttons on the light: white, amber or both together for a warmer white. Nothing to choose and nothing extra to buy.

THE LIGHT

ONE LIGHT AND WHAT IT DOES

Dimmed from the light

Hold the button to dim it, from a glow to full output, and let go at the level you want.

Three colours in one light

5000K white to work by, 3000K amber for camp, and both together for a warm 4300K.

Switches built in

Two waterproof buttons at the end of the light, one for white and one for amber, and 12 V straight in: no module and no controller.

Soft light, strong body

5050 high CRI LEDs under a diffused cover, so the light is even and colours look true, in a wider, stronger black aluminium extrusion.

Sealed to IP66

Waterproof and sealed, with a UV-resistant coating against the sun.

Safe on a start battery

The 100cm light draws 1.70 A at 12 V with both colours on, low enough to run from a healthy start battery.

TWO BUTTONS

Press, hold and let go

No controller and no app. The light is worked from its own two buttons at its end, white on one and amber on the other.

1Press to switch onPress the white or the amber button once to turn that colour on, and again to turn it off.
2Hold to dimHold the button and the light dims or brightens for as long as you hold it.
3Let go to set itLet go at the level you want, and the light stays there.
4Both on for warm whiteWhite and amber together make a warmer 4300K white.

Both buttons are waterproof. Leave them on and a switch panel or an outside switch can run the light instead.

AMBER

Warm light fewer insects

Press the amber button and the light turns to 3000K amber. It is easy on the eyes after dark and it draws fewer insects than white light, so the canopy and the camp stay usable at night.

White is 5000K, to work by and to find what you need in the dark. Both buttons together give a warmer 4300K white to cook and read by.

  • 3000K amber, for camp and fewer insects
  • 5000K white, to work by
  • 4300K warm white, both buttons on

FITTING IT YOURSELF

Stick the light on with the 3M backing, screw it down, or use both. The three screws and the PH2 bit are in the box: three, because one always goes missing.

The 1 m cable ends in the X-Range plug, so it runs to the battery cable, an extension or a splitter. Every X-Range wiring accessory plugs into it, and you can leave the buttons on and switch the light from outside it.

QUESTIONS

How long is the cable?
1 m, ending in the sealed X-Range plug with a bare tail, so every X-Range wiring accessory plugs into it.
How do I switch it on?
Press a button at the end of the light: one for white and one for amber. You can leave them on and switch the light from a switch panel instead.
Can I have white and amber on together?
Yes. Both buttons on give a third, warmer white.
Can I dim it?
Yes. Hold the button for a colour and the light dims or brightens until you let go.
Are screws included?
Yes: three 20 mm self-tapping screws and a PH2 bit, and the 3M backing is already on the light.
Is it waterproof?
Yes. It is sealed to IP66, and a UV-resistant coating protects it in the sun.
Can I run two lights off one cable?
Yes. A 1 to 2 way splitter runs both off one cable, and each light keeps its own buttons.
Will an external dimmer work?
No. External dimmers are not compatible with the dimmable range; the light dims from its own buttons.
Is it a good camping light?
Yes. Amber draws fewer insects, and both colours together give a warmer white that is easier on the eyes after dark.
