ABSOLUTE™ SERIES LED strip features 99 CRI - a near perfect achievement in color rendering. With color options of D50 (5000K) and D65 (6500K), simulating natural daylight has never been as real. |
Requires 12V DC input to operate. FilmGrade power supply (PN 3091) can operate a full reel (16 ft / 5 m) of ABSOLUTE LED strip. Using a third-party power supply? No problem - just make sure your power supply has enough power capacity for the length of LED strip you plan on connecting. |
ABSOLUTE™ LED strips use the PLUG system, and have female DC connectors mounted on both ends of the strip. Simply plug the power supply into the LED strip receptacle and you will be up and running in a matter of seconds. No extra assembly or accessories needed. Need to hard-wire these strips? See our DC plug adapters under PN 7094 and PN 7095. |
Pre-applied 3M VHB double-sided tape on the back side allows for simple but reliable installation. Peel back the liner and apply to virtually any surface. |
These LED strips can be cut to length in 1.6 inch intervals using just a pair of scissors. Rejoin LED strip segments or connect them to individual power supplies using our solderless connectors. Use PN 3070 for connecting an LED strip segment to open wire, and PN 3071 to join LED strip segments together. |
|
ABSOLUTE™ LED strips are fully dimmable down to 0%. For an in-line PWM dimmer, see PN 3081. Wall-dimmer setups (e.g. Lutron/Leviton) will require a dimmable power supply (PN 3093). More info on LED strip dimming here. |
Product Overview
Waveform Lighting's ABSOLUTE SERIES™ technology is the LED industry's first LED product to achieve 99 CRI at D50 5000K and D65 6500K. The 99 CRI rating indicates that the emitted light is quantitatively near-identical to natural daylight. This is the holy grail of lighting!
Our LED flexible strip provides 375 lumens of full-spectrum 99 CRI light per foot that is virtually indistinguishable from natural daylight.

I WOULD LIKE TO APPRECIATE YOUR FOLLOW UP ABOUT THE ORDER THAT I PLACED.IT WAS VERY HELPFUL FOR ME.ALSO RECEIVED PRODUCTS AS PER DESCRIBED IN YOUR WEB AND RECOMMENCED FOR OTHERS TO DEAL WITH YOU.
My company does product design and development of consumer electronics. So, we need good lighting for prototyping, color matching, etc. The problem is we have partitioned office spaces inside a large warehouse with a 36' roof and dark wood rafters. Our solution was to build a pergola over the office area and install 5K Absolute Series LED strips under the beams. The light is great and provides rich detail to any task. It feels light we're working in small courtyard on a mediterranean island with diffuse light shining down.
One thing I will note, proper diffusion is very important. Otherwise, the light can look harsh. We tried a few methods, including the types of aluminum channels offered by Waveform. The best diffuser material we found was prismatic acrylic which you often see in drop down ceiling panels. It was the best at breaking up the segmented LED pattern and creating a uniform source, not to mention had the highest light transmission. Using a light meter on our work surfaces, the intensity actually increased when the bare LEDs were covered with the prismatic acrylic. We ended up making out own fixtures out of aluminum U-channel. Mounting the LED's perpendicular to the diffuser as illustrated in the attached drawing yields outstanding results.
We also found an excellent and cost effective solution for power - standard ATX computer power supplies. They're inexpensive, have very high 12V current ratings, good voltage regulation as well as a built-in cooling fan. You can easily power them on and off using the PS_ON# enable pin.
These lights are great, perfect illumination with accurate color rendering. Customer service was awesome as well, will definitely be purchasing more in the future.
We have tested these LED stripe and the emitted light is of excellent quality. We will purchase more
The products from Waveform are the only affordable lighting systems I’ve come across at this level of accuracy. I was driven nuts by all the promises of competing products, only to turn them on land bathe in that faint greenish white light that comes with less accurate whites. I’ve been using waveform tubes with great satisfaction and decided to complement them with LED strips this time.
With the aluminum channel, you can still see brighter spots when looking directly at it, but the light it produces is perceived as very even. I use it for a well lit working surface in a corner of my room. I purchased separate led drivers as the ones sold on the page were a bit clunky. They offer easy suggestions and calculators on the page to do so. Which is really helpful.
As a company, waveform has consistently been helpful and quick to respond. Nothing to say further there. Very happy.
We purchased the 6500K ABSOLUTE SERIES LED strips together with the realUV 365 and 395nm strip lights to provide a naturalistic spectrum for the jumping spiders in our research laboratory. Using dimmers for the UV lights, we were able to simulate a naturalistic spectrum for a large number of spiders in a compact space, which would not have been possible with any other lights I have seen on the market (and I have searched extensively). The lights have much better color rendering and are also much, much brighter than similar but cheaper lights you can purchase elsewhere. Thank you, waveformlighting, for producing such a great and unique product.
