How to wire a Boogey Lights RGB LED strip to an existing OEM On/Off wall switch so it displays WHITE while also being able to use the Boogey Lights LED Controller to display Multiple Colors
SCENARIO: The most common scenario is with RV AWNING LIGHTS but it also applies to lighting applications such as cargo trailer interior lighting, horse trailer interior lighting and similar applications where there is an existing OEM on/off wall switch (will also work too if you’re adding new lights with a new wall switch). In this scenario the customer wants to replace the existing single color LED awning light with a multi-color awning light (and all the features it comes with – eg: Bluetooth wireless control) but doesn’t want to give up use of the existing on/off wall switch to provide install on white light whenever the wall switch is turned on.
SOLUTION: Replace the existing single color awning light with a Boogey Lights multi-color RGB LED light. The wiring of the LED controller to the existing on/off wall switch will depend on which Boogey Lights LED Controller you have: Gen1 or Gen2. The GEN2 is the most popular and has been in production since June of 2023. The GEN2 has our RGBx Quick-Switch technology. We show both wiring versions below.
This solution requires 3 heavy duty relays and any of our Super or Heavy Duty RGBx GEN2 LED controllers with Quick-Switch feature.
