š Remember:Ā Patterns donāt just mean colors ā they include how you space and group the bulbs.
š§ Installer Tip: Ask the Right Questions
If a customer wants red and warm white, ask:
- Do you want to alternate one bulb at a time (Red, Warm, Red, Warm)?
- Or do you prefer groups of two (Two Red, Two Warm, repeat)?
These little touches bring their vision to life and make the install look professionally planned.

š” Match Your Color Temperatures
Ā
Whatever pattern you use,Ā matching your color temperature is key.
- ā Use the same Kelvin range (e.g., 3000K warm white) across all bulb types: C9s, minis, etc.
- ā Donāt mix 2800K with 6500K ā it looks mismatched and cheap
This attention to detail helps your display feel cohesive and professional.
