Question 1

Do I need a separate controller for the GL RGB modules?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the GL RGB is a four-wire RGB module that requires a compatible 12V RGB PWM or DMX controller to operate. It cannot be connected directly to a constant voltage driver alone. A controller is sold separately; the Glowfy WiFi RGB Controller is compatible and available in the accessories range.

Question 2

How are RGB modules wired differently from single-colour modules?

Accepted Answer

Single-colour modules are wired in series (positive to negative, module to module). RGB modules must be wired in parallel from the controller output — each module receives all four connections (R, G, B, common) from the same controller output. Wiring RGB modules in series will not work.

Question 3

What is the San'an SMD 2835 RGB chip?

Accepted Answer

San'an Optoelectronics is a leading Chinese LED manufacturer whose chips are used across the professional signage industry. The SMD 2835 package provides good colour uniformity and brightness at 0.72W per module for RGB sign applications.

Question 4

What module spacing should I use for GL RGB?

Accepted Answer

For standard channel letters with 40–80 mm return depths, space GL RGB modules at 50–70 mm pitch. The 120° beam provides good coverage at these spacings. For shallower letters (under 40 mm), reduce spacing to 40–50 mm to maintain even colour distribution across the sign face.

Question 5

What power supply and controller size do I need?

Accepted Answer

Calculate total module wattage: number of modules × 0.72 W. Select a 12V RGB controller rated above this total across all three channels. Use a 12V DC power supply rated at least 25% above the total load. For 20 modules: 14.4W total — a 20W or 30W 12V supply with a compatible RGB controller is suitable.

Question 6

Is IP67 sufficient for outdoor RGB signage?

Accepted Answer

IP67 provides temporary immersion protection, which is sufficient for the vast majority of UK outdoor RGB channel letter applications including exposed rooftop and shopfront signs. For permanently submerged or coastal salt-spray locations, please contact Glowfy for guidance on the most appropriate solution.

Question 7

Can I dim the GL RGB modules?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the GL RGB modules are fully dimmable via PWM control through a compatible RGB controller. Dimming is applied per colour channel, allowing both colour mixing and overall brightness adjustment.

Question 8

Does the GL RGB carry a warranty?

Accepted Answer

Yes — 5 years from date of purchase when installed in accordance with Glowfy's technical guidelines and operated from a compliant 12V RGB controller and 12V DC power supply.
