Choosing right: not just power, but also control
In professional backlighting projects, simply covering a surface is not enough:
it is also key to be able to control the light, simplify the installation and guarantee electrical stability.
Parallel Flex L is positioned as a dimmable side lighting solution, where the value is not only in the light, but in how it is installed and controlled.
Positioning within the Actilum ecosystem
| Solution | Function |
|---|---|
| Luxpanel | premium homogeneous surface |
| Luxpanel Dot | selective lighting |
| Pixel | dynamic lighting |
| Parallel L | large format rigid non-adjustable |
| Parallel Flex L | adjustable linear system with optimized connection |
When to choose Parallel Flex L
Parallel Flex L is the right choice when the project requires:
- Dimming
- Integration with control systems
- Fast and safe installation
- Reduction of on-site errors
- Stability in large installations
- Backlighting in lightbox or signage
When NOT to choose Parallel Flex L
Avoid use when needed:
- Completely homogeneous surfaces → use Luxpanel or Frontline.
- Maximum structural power without regulation → use Parallel L
- Dynamic or addressable effects → use Pixel.
- Simple solutions without light control → use basic systems.
Parallel Flex L vs Parallel L
Parallel L
- Modular rigid system
- Increased structural strength
- Not adjustable
- Oriented to large format coverage
Parallel Flex L
- Rigid system with Flex connection
- Current regulation (PWM)
- Progressive ignition
- Faster and safer installation
Conclusion:
Parallel L → power and structure
Parallel Flex L → control, regulation and installation efficiency.
Parallel L vs Luxpanel
Luxpanel™
- Optical panel
- Homogeneous surface with no visible spots
- Ultra-thin integration
Parallel Flex L
- Linear side backlighting system
- Requires volume (lightbox)
- Intensity regulation
- Module-based distribution
Conclusion:
Luxpanel → total homogeneity
Parallel Flex L → intensity control in linear systems.
Parallel Flex L vs Parallel Pixel
Parallel Pixel
- Individual LED control
- Dynamic effects and animations
- Active lighting
Parallel Flex L
- Static lighting
- Global dimming
- Stability and efficiency
Conclusion:
Pixel → movement and effects
Parallel Flex L → stable and dimmable light control.
Parallel Flex L vs. standard LED strips
Conventional LED strips
- Require manual wiring
- Increased risk of installation errors
- Limited or unstable regulation
- Less control in large systems
Parallel Flex L
- Flex connection without complex wiring
- Faster installation
- Professional PWM control
- Integrated soft start
- Greater stability in long lines
Conclusion:
Parallel Flex L improves installation, control and reliability over standard solutions.
Parallel Flex L is not a flexible variant of Parallel L, but an evolution of the linear system oriented to:
- Control
- Regulation
- Efficiency
- Installation
It enables the construction of professional backlighting systems where light is not only installed, but also precisely managed.
