1. Overview of single color temperature and dual color temperature
Light strips are lighting products that can be attached to walls, ceilings, etc., and can change the indoor atmosphere and style. Among them, single color temperature and dual color temperature are the two basic types of light strips.

Monochromatic temperature light strip means that it has only one color temperature, which can usually be divided into warm white and cool white. The warm white temperature is generally between 2700K-3000K, and the tone is softer. It is suitable for bedrooms, studies, etc. that require comfort. Sensitive occasions; cool white temperature is generally between 6000K-6500K, and the tone is relatively cool, suitable for kitchens, bathrooms and other occasions that require a sense of brightness.
Dual color temperature light strip means that it contains two different color temperatures, and the color temperature can be switched by the controller to achieve different lighting effects. Generally divided into three types: warm white + cool white and red + green + blue. Among them, warm white + cold white are also called two-tone, which can be infinitely adjusted between warm white and cool white. It is suitable for use in occasions such as living rooms and offices that require different atmospheres; red + green + blue is a mixture of RGB three primary colors. It can be made into a variety of colors through the controller, and is suitable for use in bars, KTV and other occasions that require a lively atmosphere.

2. The difference and application scenarios of single color temperature and dual color temperature
There are certain differences between single-color and dual-color temperature light strips in terms of color temperature output, installation and use, and lighting effects. Let’s take a closer look.
1. Color temperature output method
The single-color temperature light strip has only one color temperature output, and different brightness values and lengths can be selected for use. The dual-color temperature light strip can select different color temperature outputs in different scenes to achieve better lighting effects.
2. Installation and use
The installation of single-color temperature light strips is relatively simple. You only need to connect the power cord, which is suitable for DIY. Dual-color temperature light strips require a controller to switch color temperatures, and are relatively complicated to install.
3. Lighting effects
The lighting effect of single-color temperature light strips is relatively single and can only achieve a fixed color temperature output. The dual-color temperature light strip can achieve multiple color temperature outputs by adjusting the controller, making the lighting effect more flexible and diverse.
In actual application scenarios, single-color and dual-color temperature light strips have their own suitable occasions. Single-color temperature light strips are suitable for occasions that require a fixed atmosphere, such as bedrooms, study rooms, etc.; while dual-color temperature light strips are suitable for occasions that require flexible switching of atmospheres, such as living rooms, bars, etc.
