Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about TruLight SLC's lighting systems, installation, app control, energy efficiency, pricing, financing, and warranty.
TruLight is a premium permanent outdoor LED lighting system that mounts below your fascia and soffit and stays there year-round. Control colors, patterns, and schedules from the TruLight app.
TruLight uses 6 LEDs per light (3 RGB + 3 dedicated warm white) compared to the industry standard of 3. This means 2-3x the brightness, true warm white and pure white modes, a 48V system for better efficiency, integrated motion sensors, and the most patterns and music sync options available.
Yes! The TruLight app lets you create and save custom patterns, choose from thousands of pre-made options, and sync your lights to music.
Yes, and this is one of TruLight's biggest advantages. With 3 dedicated warm white LEDs plus 3 RGB LEDs per light, you get two white modes: a real warm white (perfect for stone and stucco) and a true pure white by running all 6 LEDs together. Standard RGB systems can only approximate white with a bluish tint.
Yes. TruLight supports zoning, so you can run different colors or patterns on different areas of your home independently.
