LED Soffit Lighting

Our System

1. Pick a strip that works for you - We recommend the White Iris Series, first in the list above. For more power use the King Protea, for less, use the Decor Series. For colored light, use the Verbena Series, which is great when celebrating Christmas.
2. Choose a channel - The simplest channels to use are the Roma and Roma XL. They will shine straight down and are easily waterproofed with some of our Silicon Sealant. To angle the light back onto your house consider the Alu-45 or the Alu-45 Wide. To recess the lighting channel into your soffit consider the Belin, or Belin XL.
   
3. Select the correct power supply - Note that the PSUs above are waterproof, which is recommended. First, ensure you choose the voltage that matches your strip, this is either 12 or 24v. Then select the variant with a sufficient power output (wattage). Read this article for help choosing the correct PSU, or contact us for expert support!
4. Build your light fixture - Now that we have all the components we can put together a complete light fixture. Contact us and we'll happily do this for you in the warehouse!
5. Add resin filling - For ultimate waterproofness consider having the LED profiles resin filled with the strips pre installed!
   
6. Use Accessories - Our waterproof Wago wiring connectors help ensure safe electrical connections! The Permatex Adhesive allows you to attach end caps to your profiles and seal any wiring holes. Wire in the Blebox Daylight Switch to have your lights only turn on at night, saving electricity during the day!

What is LED soffit strip lighting?

One of the most common ways to light a house's exterior is using soffit lighting. To produce a downlighting appearance, these exterior LED strips can be mounted into soffits (i.e., any area under an overhang), roofs, porch overhangs, and eaves. Brightening up the architecture of your house may do wonders for the way it looks from the outside. 

Easy-to-install outdoor LED soffit lighting is an affordable, versatile, and effective solution for your industrial and commercial lighting applications, ideal for any type of lighting style, from white light to exterior RGB LED strip lighting. It gives extra, bright light while improving the way your house looks from the outside

Benefits Of Using LED Strip For Soffit Lighting

When you want to add quality light to the exterior of your home, not all types of lighting fixtures will do the work. Here are a few notable benefits of using LED strip soffit fixtures on your house.

Energy saving - LED strips can use up to 85% less energy than other lighting sources such as incandescent bulbs. 

Less maintenance - Our LED strip lights for outdoor use have a lifespan 20 times longer than that of regular lights. This implies that lighting maintenance will be reduced drastically. Soffit lighting fixtures can last 11 years being used 12 hours a day. All of this translates to not needing to replace soffit lighting as frequently, which is a significant bonus.

Water-resistant - A good soffit LED lighting fixture should be outdoors rated to use in damp or wet environments. We offer exterior LED tape lights perfect for any type of environment.

Security Lighting - Having a well-lit house at night has never been easier, you can connect your outdoor LED tape soffit system to a dimmer to create a soft glow of light.

Resin-filled LED soffit channels.

In order to create a fully water-resistant outdoor fixture, it's extremely important to use the correct products, Here are some of the best lighting profiles on the market that can be resin-filled for all types of projects: 

Waterproof LED Channel ~ Model Roma Easy On IP65 and Roma XL - Our Patented "Easy On" LED Channels system provides a "double siphon" to prevent humidity and water from penetrating the Waterproof LED Channel and officially reaching an IP65 waterproof rating. Perfect for any outdoor LED strip lighting ideas.

Recessed Aluminum LED Channel ~ Model Berlin-IP65 Waterproof and Berlin XL - Our LED profile is manufactured with high-purity aluminum, silver anodized, and black. It is ideal for embedding in furniture, shelving, installing LED strip lights under eaves, and other areas where a profile with a dot-free effect is required. 

Waterproof LED Channel ~ Model Versalles - This unique surface-mount Waterproof LED Channel comes with an extra space that serves as a wire conduit when running long lengths. It can be used in places with high levels of humidity. Combine this with our outdoor-rated LED strip lights to create a complete waterproof installation.

The base aluminum profile, diffuser, end caps, and mounting channel clips make up the components for a complete outdoor soffit fixture. They can be purchased separately and cut to size using a hand saw. Check out our blog post on tips for cutting led channels. 

Resin encapsulation for high outdoor LED protection.

We can help you in meeting the requirements of high-protection LED lighting applications, including outdoor street lighting, soffit Lighting systems, ambient lighting, in-ground pathway lighting, swimming pools, signage, LED landscape strip lighting, etc.

Resin encapsulation is ideal for exterior LED strip soffit lighting as we use polyurethane resin. Normal epoxy will turn yellow over time whereas our UV-stable resin will maintain its true color. With simple and efficient designs, our resin encapsulating technique offers a seamless look. The result is a seamless line of light and aesthetically clean light designs.
