Learn from this real-world configuration: a complete edge-lighting solution tailored for a 1500mm square lightbox. See how the right module count, power supply, and accessories come together for a balanced, professional result.

Description:
This configuration showcases how to approach a non-standard square lightbox — in this case, 1500mm x 1500mm — using our rigid edge-light modules and proven installation methods.

The goal was simple: deliver even, shadow-free illumination across the full vertical span, ideal for graphic fabric or diffused panels. The solution uses 8 edge-light modules installed in two rows — 4 along the top and 4 along the bottom — achieving clean light spread with no visible gaps.

Each module is approx. 35cm in length, so 4 units span 140cm. This leaves a small, intentional margin on either side to soften the light output near the corners — a technique that’s proven reliable in similar projects.


What Was Used in This Setup:

  • 8 x HL-OEL005 rigid edge modules – View Module

  • 6 x HL-OEL-SBCR barrel connectors to link modules – View

  • 2 x HL-OEL-PSU200 DC input plugs (one for each row) – View

  • Optional accessories:


Power Supply Options Used in Similar Cases:

Option 1 – One driver for all 8 modules:

  • 1 x 150W 24V IP67 LED driver – View

  • 2 x IP68 connector boxes – View

  • A junction box is used to split the output and power both top and bottom runs from one source

Option 2 – One driver per edge (preferred when space is tight):

  • 2 x 60W 24V IP67 LED drivers – View

  • 4 x IP68 connector boxes – 2 per driver

Both options offer stable operation with extra headroom, ensuring long-term reliability.


Why 6250K Cool White?
All modules in this case use our standard 6250K colour temperature — carefully chosen for fabric graphics, retail visuals, and signage. This CCT provides a clean, bright output without harshness and has been consistently reliable in hundreds of similar projects.


Need Different Lengths?
Our rigid edge-lighting range includes three sizes:

  • HL-OEL003 (21cm)

  • HL-OEL005 (35cm)

  • HL-OEL006 (42cm)

These can be mixed on the same chain if needed to fit custom dimensions more precisely.
Note: These are not cuttable. Choose based on exact lightbox size and layout.


Cuttable Options (Different Use Case):
If your lightbox is under 1 metre wide and less than 10cm deep, consider using HL-OEL012 or HL-OEL024. These are flexible and cuttable, but not suitable for larger or deeper boxes like the one in this case study.


Attachments & Technical Data:
To explore layout examples, electrical specs, or datasheets, just open the Attachments tab on the product pages. These documents are designed for installers and will answer most setup questions.
