The magnetic track lighting system
The magnetic track lighting system is an innovative solution for contemporary spaces, allowing for vertical and horizontal designs on walls and ceilings, perfect for your creative DIY lighting ideas. Its quick installation method and minimal decorative effect make it an ideal choice for home and office lighting. In this guide, we will provide detailed information about the system and its benefits
Understanding Magnetic Track Lighting: Functionality and Benefits
The magnetic track light fixture attaches to the track using magnets on an aluminum shell with copper conductors and an iron sheet. When the fixture with magnets nears the iron sheet, it attaches securely without tools, connecting to the copper conductor. Powered by an AC110-220V to DC48V transformer, the system powers the entire lighting setup. Various magnetic lamps can move freely along the track like traditional LED lights, easily adjustable and removable. The modular design of the track allows for different configurations, forming shapes such as L, square, and U shapes as needed.

Square shape. It is suitable for living rooms, and offices.
U Shape: Mainly used for living room.
L Shape: Good for use in corridors, living rooms, and cloakrooms.
I Shape: For the living room, dining room, and kitchen room.
Step 2. Choosing a suitable magnetic track rail.

As described above, there are four types of magnetic tracks:
- Recessed Magnetic Track: Ideal for new homes planning suspended ceilings but haven’t installed them yet. Requires grooves to be made and tracks pre-embedded, then pressed into the ceiling.
- Trimless Magnetic Rail: Used in rooms where ceilings are already in place, fixing directly onto ceiling plasterboard.
- Surface/Pendant Magnetic Track: Mainly used in spaces without false ceilings or where plasterboard installation isn’t feasible, such as supermarkets, offices, etc.
- Note: If you choose to use the embedded track light system, you need to reserve 5-7cm of space when the ceiling is suspended. We can provide the 4-in-1 magnetic track ( integrated with the surface, recessed, trimless, pendant installation)
Step 3. Choosing magnetic LED lights.

Step 5: Selecting a Magnetic Driver
There are two options for choosing the driver for your entire system:
- 48V Built-in Driver: Ideal for integrating with all magnetic tracks, especially for suspension or surface-mounted tracks. Available in 100W and 200W power options.
- External Driver: Primarily used for recessed installations. External drivers typically offer higher quality compared to built-in drivers. Meanwell power supplies are available in 100W, 200W, and 350W options. External power supplies are suitable for placement near air conditioner outlets or exclusive maintenance ports, ensuring convenient future maintenance, repair, or replacement.
