SunBlaster Prism Lens LED Strip Light, 24", 6400K 24W

LED Strip Light With a Beam-Focusing Prism Lens, 24in

A standard LED strip light spreads its output broadly across the room, which wastes some of that light on empty bench space instead of the canopy directly underneath. SunBlaster's Prism Lens LED Strip Light adds a molded prism lens and a built-in reflector on top of a more efficient LED array, narrowing the beam to roughly 90 degrees so more of the fixture's output lands on the plants instead of scattering sideways.

At 24 inches and 3400 lumens, this fixture suits a wider tray or two smaller trays placed side by side on the same shelf.

Key Features & Benefits

• Prism Lens Design — narrows output to roughly a 90-degree beam angle instead of scattering light broadly.
• Built-In Reflector — works alongside the lens to direct light down onto the canopy below.
• 6400K Full-Spectrum LEDs — cool-leaning output suited to vegetative growth and propagation stages.
• 6-Foot Power Cord Plus Link Cord — reach a nearby outlet and connect neighboring fixtures without extra cabling.
• Mounting Clips Included — hang or mount the strip directly above the growing area.

Who Should Use This Prism Lens Strip Light

This strip light fits growers who want output concentrated on the canopy rather than spread across the surrounding bench or room, particularly on narrow shelving or in multi-tier racks where stray light between tiers goes to waste. It suits a single hobbyist shelf just as well as a commercial propagation area running several linked fixtures.

About SunBlaster

SunBlaster, headquartered in Langley, British Columbia, develops LED strip lighting and fluorescent fixtures for indoor and greenhouse growing, distributed through horticultural retailers. The Prism Lens line adds a molded lens to the company's existing strip-light array, aiming more of each fixture's output directly at the canopy instead of simply adding wattage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 90-degree beam angle mean for coverage?

A 90-degree beam angle means the light concentrates in a cone roughly a quarter of a full circle wide, rather than spreading in every direction like a bare LED strip. In practice, more of the fixture's lumens land on the tray or canopy directly below it instead of lighting up the surrounding bench or the underside of the shelf above.

How many Prism Lens strips can I link together?

Up to eight Prism Lens strip lights can be daisy-chained from a single power source using the included link cords, enough to cover a full multi-tray bench or several shelves from one outlet. Each additional fixture still needs its own mounting clips to stay positioned above its section of the growing area.

How is this different from a standard LED strip light without the prism lens?

A standard strip light spreads its output broadly, so some light lands outside the tray or escapes past the edges of a shelf. The lens and reflector on this fixture work together to narrow that spread to roughly 90 degrees, concentrating more of the same electrical input onto the canopy directly below.

Can I mount this strip light close to seedlings?

Yes, LED strip lights run cool enough to sit closer to seedling canopy than older fluorescent or HID lighting, though the safe distance still depends on wattage and the plant's own tolerance. Start a few inches above the canopy, watch for leaf bleaching or curling over the first few days, and adjust height from there.

How do I pick the right length for my tray?

Match the fixture length to the tray or shelf width it needs to cover: a 12-inch strip suits a small tray, while the 48-inch version covers a full-width bench. A strip noticeably shorter than the growing area leaves the outer edges under-lit, so it's better to round up to the next length than down.
