THE DIFFERENCE OF G7 AND G5

 
Compare the system

Cable thickness


Cable design is one of the key distinguishing feature between the two systems:

CONNECTABLE STANDARD (G5) uses thin PVC cables, which have the advantage of better flexibility. They can be easily threaded through door and window gaps without affecting closure, especially suitable for installation needs in home scenarios that require temporary wiring or frequent adjustments.

CONNECTABLE PRO (G7) comes standard with thick cables made of rubber or PVC. Through thickened insulation layers and anti-aging material formulations, it significantly enhances tensile strength, resistance to high and low temperatures, and wear resistance, making it more suitable for long-term complex outdoor environments.

It should be noted that cable characteristics directly affect the durability and installation flexibility of the system. When making a selection, it is necessary to consider the long-term stability requirements of the usage environment.

The number of connectable patent RGB LEDs differs

Both systems convert voltage through transformers (stepping down 240V/120V mains electricity to 24V safe voltage), and the specifications of power supply equipment are positively correlated with the number of drivable patent RGB LEDs— the higher the power of the transformer/solar panel, the more patent RGB LED it can support. This rule also applies to solar power supply mode.

CONNECTABLE STANDARD(G5):

Small 24V transformer (12W): MAX.664 RGB LEDs

Medium 24V transformer (36W): MAX.2,000 RGB LEDs (960 from each port)

Large 24V transformer (60W): MAX.4,000 RGB LEDs (960 from each port)

Small Solar panel (2.5W): MAX.300 RGB LEDs

Large Solar panel (7.5W): MAX.500 RGB LEDs

CONNECTABLE PRO(G7):

Small 24V transformer (72W): MAX.4,000 RGB LEDs

Medium 24V transformer (240W): MAX.13,328 RGB LEDs (960 from each port)

Large 24V transformer (1440W): MAX.80,000 RGB LEDs (960 from each port)

Small Solar panel (7.5W): MAX.500 RGB LEDs

Large Solar panel (60W): MAX.4,000 RGB LEDs

Important Note: Due to differences in RGB LEDs load capacity, the power supply equipment (transformers/solar panels) of the two systems cannot be used interchangeably and must be strictly matched with the corresponding models.

Recommended Application Scenarios

Based on the core performance differences between CONNECTABLE STANDARD (G5) and CONNECTABLE PRO (G7), combined with the characteristics of actual application scenarios, the following targeted selection suggestions are provided to help users accurately match their usage needs:

Applicable Scenarios for CONNECTABLE STANDARD (G5)

Home lightweight decoration scenarios
Its thin PVC cable (easy to pass through door and window gaps without affecting closure) and the maximum synchronous control limit of 4,000 RGB LEDs make it suitable for home indoor and outdoor holiday decorations (such as Christmas and other festivals atmosphere arrangements), balcony railing stringing, stair handrail decoration and other scenarios. The IP55 protection rating can cope with daily rain splashes. Moreover, small and medium-sized transformers (12W-60W) are compatible with household mains sockets, featuring outstanding installation convenience.

Short-term use in temporary scenarios
For short-term needs such as wedding decoration, house decoration and temporary exhibition setup, the lightweight design of CONNECTABLE STANDARD (G5) and the 3-year limited warranty period can balance cost and practicality, avoiding equipment idle waste caused by scene changes.

Small-scale solar energy applications
When matched with 2.5W-7.5W solar panels, it can drive 300-500 RGB LEDs, suitable for low-load scenarios such as courtyard paths and partial lighting of potted plants, realizing basic decoration without wiring.

Applicable Scenarios for CONNECTABLE PRO (G7)

Commercial outdoor engineering scenarios
The large synchronous control capacity of 80,000 RGB LEDs IP67 high protection rating (resistant to short-term water immersion) and thick rubber/PVC cables (anti-aging and wear-resistant) make it suitable for high-frequency use and complex environment scenarios such as large shopping mall facade decoration, park landscape belt stringing, and lighting around outdoor swimming pools of hotels. The 1,440W large transformer can meet the needs of large-scale lighting arrangement.

Long-term harsh outdoor environments
For rainy areas, coastal humid environments or scenarios that need direct contact with water (such as around fountains and water feature decorations), the durability and protection capability of CONNECTABLE PRO (G7) can significantly reduce the maintenance frequency, and the 5-year limited warranty also provides a guarantee for long-term use.

Supporting high-power solar energy systems
7.5W-60W solar panels can drive 500-4,000 RGB LEDs, suitable for large-scale lighting in remote outdoor areas (such as scenic trails and farm fences), achieving stable operation without relying on mains power.
