Hi,
We are building out a workshop studio for my wife, and I was originally going to go with these 24V strips: https://store.waveformlighting.com/collections/led-strips/products/ultra-high-95-cri-led-strip-lights-for-home-residential?variant=5776159014941
this power supply/controller: https://store.waveformlighting.com/products/triac-dimmable-power-supply-for-led-strip?variant=27978821435494
and a standard gen3 adaptive phase control4 dimmer: https://www.control4.com/docs/product/wireless-adaptive-phase-dimmer/data-sheet/english/latest/wireless-adaptive-phase-dimmer-data-sheet-rev-b.pdf
and add a standard 3 button C4 keypad to set to some preset colors (one requirement from my wife is to be able to change the color temp without using an app)
however, now my wife wants tunable color temperature, so I am looking at these: https://store.waveformlighting.com/collections/led-strips/products/filmgrade-hybrid-led-strip-lights
and then it gets more fuzzy. I am not sure if this would be a good solution: https://store.waveformlighting.com/collections/power-supplies-and-dimmers/products/filmgrade-dmx-led-dimmer-decoder-with-5-channel-output
and add a DMX controller which has a C4 driver (which one?),
or to go with an integrated decoder/controller which has a C4 driver. (which one?)
There is not a solution which just uses the dual load C4 dimmer with some special controller
We are going to start with two runs of 22 ft (recommended 145 W power supply for each), but we may decide to double that if it is not bright enough.
We have wifi and ethernet at the location, but I do not want to have to run any dedicated wires back to the C4 controller inside the house, so I do not think any serial based solution will be workable.
Ideally all the hardware could be hidden inside the walls in junction boxes in the studio.
Can anyone give some advice?
Thanks,
iustus
