Low-Voltage vs High-Voltage Lighting

High Voltage Systems – Traditional Approach

Traditional high voltage lighting systems operate directly from 120-277V AC power. Each fixture requires heavy-gauge wiring, metal conduits, and individual drivers built into every light. This conventional approach has been the industry standard for decades, but comes with significant drawbacks in terms of installation complexity, maintenance requirements, and overall system flexibility.

Crunchy Tech Low Voltage System Solution

Crunchy Tech’s innovative low voltage solution for commercial applications operates on 24-48V DC power. It comes equipped with centralized drivers powering multiple fixtures through standard Cat6 cabling. This shift in lighting architecture comes with a bunch of real benefits—think serious cost savings and better performance.

Here’s a quick side-by-side to show how low-voltage lighting compares to high-voltage.

FactorLow Voltage (Crunchy Tech Solution)High Voltage (Traditional)
Power Source24-48V DC (safe, energy-efficient)120-277V AC (standard but power-hungry)
  WiringUses simple Cat6 cablesRequires thick metal conduits & heavy-gauge wiring
  Installation ComplexityFast & easy (fewer components, no conduit)Labor-intensive (complex wiring, permits, inspections)
  CostSaves up to 63% on total installation & materialsExpensive (higher labor, more materials needed)
  FlexibilityCentralized drivers power multiple fixturesEach fixture needs its own driver
  Control and AutomationSeamlessly integrates with AV systems, smart scheduling, and scene settingsLimited automation & manual control in most cases
  Energy SavingsLower power consumption = reduced utility costsHigher energy use = more expensive bills
  ScalabilityEasily expand or reconfigure without major rewiringChanges require costly electrical work
  MaintenanceFewer points of failure, simple remote managementEach fixture has built-in drivers that can fail separately
  SafetyLow voltage = lower risk of electrical hazardsHigh voltage requires extra precautions & skilled electricians
  Ideal ForSports venues, retail, hotels, entertainment spaces, etcLegacy systems, industrial sites, older buildings

If cost-effectiveness, ease of installation, and futureproofing are your top considerations when looking for lighting and controls, low voltage is the clear victor. Traditional high-voltage systems still work. But the cons include extra costs, complexity, and maintenance headaches.

Commercial Downlights

Transform your commercial area with intelligent low voltage downlight systems that provide high performance and significantly cut down installation costs. Our recessed lighting systems are compatible with AV technology and building automation so that they can be controlled using a single portal.

Smart Performance Features

  • Size range: 4″ to 8″ fixtures for any ceiling configuration
