Introducing
The Linear System
The linear system is essentially what we refer to as our customizable smart LED strip lights that are designed to be installed directly into your lighting points, they eliminate the need for a separate power outlet. This setup is ideal for individuals looking to incorporate smart linear lighting into their interior design in a more integrated manner, such as using them for ceiling downlights or as accent lighting within wardrobes and cabinets.
Get the perfect look
Elevate your interior design.
Our range of smart LED strip lights can be installed on your concrete or plaster ceiling as general lighting or in your book shelves as accent lighting. Not only are they smart, our COB LED strip lights produces a seamless continuous line of light that will enhance your space's aesthetics.
Get the perfect mood
Dim or colour-change your LED strip lights with ease.
With a single tap of your smart phone, you can transform your home from an energetic workspace into a cozy cinema. Our smart led strip lights are bright enough for work and playful enough for your favourite hobbies.

We provide soldering services.
Need your LED strips at specific lengths? Our soldering services can customize LED strips to your exact requirements before delivery.
How does it work?
The lighting point connects to the 24V transformer, which then supplies low voltage power to Near's smart Zigbee controller, effectively powering up our LED strips and imbues them with smart lighting functionalities.
24V Transformer
The transformer helps to drop incoming electricity from 240V to 24V DC to power the smart controller & light strip.
Zigbee LED Strip Smart Controller
This controller makes any 24V LED strip smart. Once paired, you can use the Near app to dim, colour change & more.
Near LED Strips
Create your ideal linear configurations with Near's range of LED strips & aluminium profiles.
FAQ
Smart LED Strips Frequently Asked Questions
Can 1 smart Zigbee controller be used to control more than 1 set of LED Strip lights?
Certainly. Ensure that the LED strip lights being used are identical for proper functionality of your app controls. Avoid mixing a CCT LED Strip with our All Colours LED Strip to maintain synchronized light colors with the app.
Is the Near smart Zigbee controller compatible with the Near HomeKit Zigbee Hub?
Yes. The smart Zigbee controller can be paired with the Near HomeKit Hub because they both operate using the Zigbee protocol, however you can only control the LED strip lights with the Near App. The smart Zigbee controller is not compatible with the Apple Home App.
Can I control multiple Near smart Zigbee Controllers with only 1 transformer/power supply?
Yes, but please ensure that the total wattage consumed by the LED Strip lights does not exceed the maximum threshold of the transformer/power supply. Overloading the power supply can lead to inefficiencies, potential damage to the LED strips, and may pose a safety risk. Always calculate the total wattage required by your LED setup and compare it with the capacity of your existing power supply to ensure compatibility and safe operation.
Can I extend the 5050 All Colours LED Strip light with the same straight connector as the 2M Wi-Fi LightStrip Kit?
Yes you can. However, please keep in mind that if you intend to insert the 5050 LED strip light into our aluminium profiles, the connector may not fit. We recommend using our soldering services instead.
How to determine how many meters of LED strip lights a 24V transformer can power
- Identify the Wattage per Meter of Your LED Strip lights: Check the specifications of your LED strip to find out the wattage consumption per meter.
- Know the Capacity of Your 24V Transformer: Determine the maximum wattage that your transformer can handle. This value is crucial for calculating the total length of LED strip it can power without risk of overload.
- Calculate the Total Length: Divide the transformer's maximum wattage capacity by the wattage per meter of the LED strip.
For example, if your transformer's capacity is 60 watts and your LED strip consumes 10 watts per meter, you can support up to 6 meters of LED strip ([60 watts] / [10 watts per meter] = 6 meters).
Always leave a small margin to ensure safe operation and to account for any potential variance in power consumption.
How do I choose the right LED Strip?
Strip lighting is highly versatile, easily installable in various locations. Its flexibility fosters creative lighting design, offering subtle ambient lighting or vibrant color highlights. To choose the right LED strip light, start with what is it used for?
1. Furniture: If you intend to use the LED Strip underneath a shelf for example, opt for a 10W per meter, slim LED COB strip such as the Near 5mm COB LED strip. It is bright enough to light up your books or decors, its slim profile makes it look sleek and with COB's densely packed LEDs, you will not see the unsightly dots found in typical LED strips if it is installed at eye level.
2. General Lighting: If your goal is to illuminate larger areas, like a living room, choosing a high-luminosity LED strip is crucial. Opt for models like the Near Max Bright LED strip, which features a higher wattage to provide ample illumination across vast spaces. Such LED strips are designed to distribute light effectively, ensuring that surfaces like tables and floors are well-lit, regardless of ceiling height. This makes them ideal for creating a welcoming and functional environment in communal living spaces.
3. Cove Lighting: Cove lighting has become a staple in Singapore's residential design, admired for its ability to serve as both ambient and mood lighting. For those considering this elegant lighting option, the Near 5050 All Colours LED strip is an excellent choice. This versatile and affordable LED strip allows users to select from a wide range of colors, making it perfect for setting the right atmosphere for any occasion, be it a cozy movie night or a formal dinner. The unique installation of cove lighting, concealed within architectural coves, effectively camouflages any dark spots that are typically visible on a 5050 LED strip, thereby maximizing the aesthetic appeal and value of your investment.
About Us
Our venture to create Smart LED Strips suitable for installation in virtually any corner of a home.
At Near, our exploration into the usage of strip lighting in Singaporean homes has been an ongoing process since 2019. Our initial venture into smart LED strip lighting began with the Strip 1.0, which offered RGB color options but required an A/C wall adaptor for power, a setup prone to complexities during installation, particularly for architectural lighting purposes. Feedback from contractors highlighted the challenge of installing LED strips powered by AC adaptors, spurring us to seek better, more integrated solutions.
Our pursuit led us to develop The Linear System, a smart LED strip solution designed for optimal brightness, aesthetic appeal when housed in aluminium profiles, and crucially, the ability to be powered directly from the lighting points typically found in the ceilings of Singaporean homes. This innovative approach underwent multiple iterations, with each trial refining its design and functionality. At Near, we prioritize both lighting performance and aesthetics to ensure that our customers receive the best possible lighting experience in their homes. Today, The Linear System is a testament to our commitment and innovation, widely adopted in numerous Singaporean residences, transforming spaces with its efficient and aesthetic illumination.
