Lilibend is a linear LED strip manufacturer located in Long Island City. Their linear product is sealed with an IP68 rating, and field cuttable in 6inch increments with an optional 3inch connector for custom lengths. Each 6inch piece comes with a male and female connector and once separated can be reconnected for longer lengths without having to solder it back together. They control the color temperature by altering the color of the gel encasing the LEDs. The color temperatures available are 2200K, 2700K, 3000K, 3500K and 4000K. We noticed when looking at the samples they brought in that the color temperatures are a lot warmer than we are used to. We would probably use their 3K version in place of 27K from other manufacturers.
The best things about Lilibend are that they are a local manufacturer and have a very competitive price point. They have some extrusions but also comes with 3M constructive adhesive on the back for easy installation. Dimming is available int 0-10V, magnetic low voltage or triac.
