Nine-channel wireless LED controller TrueSpectrum Lite


 
  $59.00

Availability:  Out of Stock

* Interface flat cable:





We believe that a well-designed LED lamp does not need active cooling. Therefore TrueSpectrum Lite controller has no possibilities of using the fan cooling and the temperature sensor.
All other function of controller TrueSpectrum Lite is same as in the controller TrueSpectrum.
