GARDEN CITY, NEW YORK – Perfect for outdoor accent and display lighting applications, WAC Lighting introduces the energy saving INIVISILED™ Classic 24-volt Outdoor system of LED tape lights.
The outdoor series is the newest addition to the firm’s popular, award-winning INVISILED™ family.
WAC Lighting, a leading manufacturer and designer of track, recessed, undercabinet, monorail and decorative lighting, develops nearly all of its responsible products in the family owned, ISO 9001-certified manufacturing campus with in-house UL approved testing labs.

The unique INVISILED™ Tape Light System is ideal for upscale residential, hospitality, retail and commercial markets. It provides flexible, easy-to-install accent lighting solutions for a broad range of layouts and applications including decks, steps, ponds, fountains, pools, architectural accents and landscapes. The fixtures are IP-68 rated for submersion in water up to five feet in depth, as well as UL and CUL Listed for wet locations.

Using state of the art LED technology, the energy efficient LED tape delivers a crisp, quality light while using only 2 watts per-foot. Flexible and easy to install, INVISILED™ Classic 24-volt Outdoor offers an extremely low profile and is virtually invisible with a 1/8th of an inch thickness and 1/2 of an inch width. Long life LEDs (light emitting diodes) perform up to 50,000 hours and are spaced evenly one-inch apart. Each INVISILED™ strip can be mounted with screw-based clips for easy installation and ideal for customizing lighting designs to meet the exact specifications of each project.

LED tape is available in one-, five- and 10-foot sections that are field cuttable every two inches or may also be cut to length at the end of a run. INVISILED™ is crafted in a silicon casing for long-lasting durability but still flexible enough to negotiate curves effortlessly.
