RGB vs RGB-W Whip Light
What’s the difference?
There are two types of LED whip lights: RGB and RGB-W.
The easiest way to tell them apart is by looking closely at the LED chips on the whip:
- RGB-W whips have a small yellow LED chip visible on the strip.
- RGB whips do not have this yellow chip.
RGB and RGB-W whip controllers are not compatible with each other.
