WAC Lighting - 36" Basics and Gemini 24VDC Joiner Cable

Build an economical and versatile layered LED Tape light system using Basics or Gemini. Basics & Gemini LED tape lights are easy-to-setup with seamless and scalable run lengths, sharing power supplies and components. Basics LED Tape delivers precision and performance with two selectable power outputs and five selectable color temperatures from warm 2700K to cool 5000 Kelvin. Gemini is a continuous phosphorus (COB) tape that eliminates unsightly diode imaging and great for applications where the LED Tape Light is reflected or in direct sight.

  • Basics & Gemini 24VDC In-Wall Rated Joiner Cable 36in Length
  • Joiner cables can be used to connect two strips of Basics & Gemini Tape Light together with power continuity.
  • Flexible and customizable with a low profile. Use with universal input voltage 120-220-277V power supply: PS-24DC-U and T24-BS-EX2 lead wire required or 120VAC power supply: EN-BT60 with lead wire included.
  • Basics LED tape light can be cut in the field every 4in and re-connected with safe and secure connectors. Gemini LED tape light can be cut in the field every 2in and re-connected with safe and secure connectors. Smooth robust illumination deployed from evenly placed UV coated LEDs for cove, accent and task lighting applications.
  • Smooth and continuous dimming with an electronic low voltage dimmer (ELV), TRIAC or 0-10V (0-10V only available with PS-24DC-U power Supply). Dimmers should be installed on the primary side of the transformer. Driver input voltage: 120V-220V-277V AC, Driver output voltage: 24V DC. Driver is available in a 288W max load.
  • High Powered LED's 90+ CRI, Rated Hours: 80,000, Voltage: 24V, Lumen Options: 100+ lm/ft, or 200+ lm/ft.

WAC Lighting T24-BS-IC-036-BK – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the WAC Lighting T24-BS-IC-036 joiner cable actually do in a tape light run?
It links two separate sections of WAC Basics or Gemini 24VDC LED tape light while carrying power through, so the run stays electrically continuous across a gap. The cable is 36 inches long, which lets you jump a corner, a cabinet break, or a framing obstruction without cutting into the tape's power feed. It is in-wall rated, so the jump can be concealed.
2) Will this joiner cable work with WAC Gemini COB tape as well as Basics tape?
Both. The cable is built for the Basics and Gemini 24VDC families, which share power supplies and components, so the same joiner serves either tape. Gemini is the continuous phosphor (COB) tape used where the light is in direct sight or reflected; Basics is the diode tape with selectable outputs and color temperatures. Either way the system runs at 24V DC.
3) What else do I need to order to power a Basics or Gemini tape run besides the joiner cable?
The joiner only bridges two tape sections, it does not feed power. For a universal 120-220-277V supply you need the PS-24DC-U plus a T24-BS-EX2 lead wire, which is sold separately. If you go with the 120VAC EN-BT60 supply, the lead wire comes with it. The PS-24DC-U is also the only route to 0-10V dimming; ELV and TRIAC dimming are supported, and the dimmer goes on the primary side of the transformer.
4) Can the joiner cable be run inside a wall or through a cabinet partition?
Yes, it is an in-wall rated 24VDC joiner, so it can be concealed rather than surface-run. Location rating is damp and indoor only, IP20, with UL and cUL listing. Keep it out of wet exterior locations.
5) Does this cable meet Title 24 and ADA requirements for a commercial job?
The Basics and Gemini 24VDC system this joiner belongs to is CEC Title 24 compliant and ADA compliant, with UL and cUL listing for damp locations at IP20. It also carries an Energy Star designation. Those are the lines an institutional or municipal spec reviewer usually asks for.
6) If I cut a Basics tape light in the field, can I reconnect the pieces with this joiner?
Yes, that is the point of it. Basics tape can be cut every 4 inches and Gemini every 2 inches, then re-terminated with secure connectors; the 36 inch joiner carries power from one cut section to the next. Plan cut points on the tape's marked intervals so the connection lands correctly.
7) What color options does the 36 inch Basics joiner cable come in, and does it matter?
Two: black (T24-BS-IC-036-BK) and white (T24-BS-IC-036-WT). Pick whichever disappears against the surface, since the jumper is often the one visible piece in a cove or under-cabinet run. White for painted drywall and white cabinet interiors, black for dark channel or ceiling work.
8) Can I mount a Basics tape run vertically or on a ceiling with joiner cables between sections?
Yes. The joiner can be mounted on ceiling or wall in any orientation, and mounting method is listed as any. That makes it workable for cove, accent and task layouts where the run turns from a horizontal soffit up onto a wall.
