The present invention provides a control method and controller for a USB-powered combination type lamp strip, and the method includes steps: S1, a working power source is provided for a lamp strip controller by a power attachment circuit; S2, a microcontroller unit (MCU) control circuit generates a control signal according to a signal collected by a collection circuit, and a drive circuit controls switching of lamp strip lighting modes according to the control signal. The controller is connected with a dichromatic diode to realize several control modes by combination of forward and backward voltages, the microcontroller unit pwm duty cycle, and forward and backward voltage supply durations, so that to realize the combination of multiple control modes, and then control the color of the lamp strip in multiple modes.

A lamp is provided that can have at least one interface on the lamp body for a selectable lumens and selectable correlated color temperature (CCT). In one embodiment, the lamp design includes a housing having a downlight geometry and a light engine including at least one string of light emitting diodes (LEDs), in which the light engine is position to emit light through a light emission end of the housing having the downlight geometry. The lamp also includes at least one first switch for selecting at least one lumen setting for the light emitted by the light engine; and at least one second switch for selecting at least one correlated color temperature. The first and second switch are mounted to the housing.

Disclosed herein is a multi-element flexible strap light which includes a plurality of light elements disposed on a flexible chassis. The flexible chassis may include a first flexible layer, a printed circuit board, and a second flexible layer. The flexible chassis may be further contained within a third flexible layer, such as a layer of polycarbonate plastic. Further disclosed is a multi-element flexible strap light system which includes a plurality of light elements disposed on a flexible chassis and a remote battery.

A plurality of individually controllable LED modules (LEDs) are provided for displaying defined patterns. At least a first and second cables are provided with three or more conductive wires insulated from one another comprising at least one reference voltage wire, a positive voltage wire and a data wire. Each of a plurality of strips is maintained between the cables along a defined longitudinal distribution and receives the reference voltage, the positive voltage and the data therefrom. Each of the strips comprises a subset of the individually controllable LEDs positioned therealong in a defined transverse distribution. The display controller module comprises a processor that sends lighting instructions for the LEDs over the data wire. The lighting instructions are set considering the defined longitudinal distribution of the plurality of strips and the defined transverse distribution along each of the plurality of strips to provide the defined patterns.

Channels and channel covers for linear lighting are disclosed. The channels have an upper compartment for linear lighting and a lower compartment that may be used as a raceway, to engage parts, and for rear entry of wires. Endcaps for the channels may engage the lower compartment. Cover-lenses for linear lighting channels are also disclosed. The cover-lenses may include diffusing material and implement a thickness gradient in order to maximize the amount of diffusing material where the emitted light intensity is expected to be greatest. Diverging Fresnel features may be superimposed on the thickness gradient in order to counteract any converging effect of the thickness gradient and cause emitted light to spread more evenly.
