C9 Track
Classic C9 bulbs in a color-matched channel. Permanent, wire hidden, looks like Christmas lights should.

The C9 is the bulb shape people picture when they think of Christmas lights. This package puts a full-color Minleon RGBW+2 C9 on 15-inch centers inside a slim color-matched channel that matches your fascia, so from the street you see bulbs and no wire.
Each bulb has red, green, blue and dedicated white diodes, so warm white for everyday use is a true white, not a blend of colors, which is a real difference from RGB-only systems. The polycarbonate shell is faceted like a glass C9 and rated by Minleon for a 10-year lifespan.
How it's installed
We bond the channel to the fascia with 3M VHB tape on a surface cleaned with denatured alcohol, then clip the bulb strand into the channel and snap the covers on. On most homes there are no screws in the roof or fascia at all.
Runs connect to a controller in the garage or a weather-rated box near an exterior outlet. Power injection is added every 200 lights so the far end of the run is as bright as the first bulb.
Best for
- Traditional homes and craftsman rooflines
- Homeowners who want the classic bulb shape year-round
- HOAs that prefer a familiar holiday look
