Discreet by day. Designed for every night of the year.
The track follows the home’s roofline cleanly. When the lights are on, peaks and architectural lines become part of the design. When they are off, the goal is a neat exterior finish that does not compete with the house.
The product decision
Why Rocky Mountain Lighting installs Canstar
We wanted a system that works as everyday architectural lighting, not only as permanent Christmas lights. These are the Canstar features worth examining in a live demonstration.
Current Canstar residential specifications ↗More individual light points
Lights are published at eight-inch spacing, placing more controllable points across a roofline than systems using wider spacing. Final appearance still depends on the scene, placement and brightness.
Dedicated warm white
The RGBW design includes a dedicated warm-white component for ordinary evenings and architectural accents—not only colourful holiday effects.
Individual light replacement
Canstar lights are individually replaceable. RML includes free labour on covered replacements during the three-year warranty period.
Less manual scheduling
Generative-AI scene creation and Optimus automation are designed to reduce the work of building scenes and following game, festival and holiday schedules.
App control
Create it once—or let the system schedule it
The Canstar app controls static colours, brightness, effects, schedules, generative-AI scene creation and Optimus automation. During setup, we show you how to create scenes and manage the lighting from your phone.
