*JellyFish approximates warm white using an RGB algorithm. No dedicated warm white LED.
*JellyFish requires a separate Music Box accessory (sold separately) to enable music sync.
RGB White vs. RGBW Pure White
RGB “White”
Standard RGB systems mix red, green, and blue to approximate white. The result is a cool, bluish-purple tint that doesn't look natural, especially on warm-toned homes with stone, stucco, or earth-tone siding.
RGBW Pure White
TruLight uses 6 LEDs per light: 3 RGB + 3 dedicated warm white LEDs. This gives you two distinct white modes: a real warm white that flatters stone and stucco, and a true pure white by blending all 6 LEDs together. No RGB system can replicate this.
