Not just lights.
A proper system.
Most permanent lighting companies install 12V systems designed for warm climates. We install Gen 2 24V — engineered for Alberta winters, app-controlled, and built to last decades.
Why 24V changes everything
The lighting industry runs on 12V. We run on 24V — and the difference isn't subtle. Higher voltage means brighter output per fixture, less heat, longer run lengths without colour fade, and a system that handles Calgary's extreme temperature swings without skipping a beat.
| Brightness consistency | ✓ Uniform across full run length |
| Heat generation | ✓ Lower — extends LED lifespan |
| Voltage drop | ✓ Minimal — no dimming at far ends |
| Cold weather performance | ✓ Rated to −40°C |
| IP Rating | ✓ IP68 — fully submersible |
| Expected lifespan | ✓ 50,000+ hours |
The app other companies
wish they had.
The #1 complaint we hear from people who switched from a competitor: "The app was a nightmare." Ours isn't. If you can order DoorDash, you can control your Starise system. No manual. No YouTube tutorial. No calling us for help.
Auto sunset/sunrise
Turns on at dusk, off at dawn. Set it once, forget it forever.
Scene scheduling
Set Christmas mode to activate Dec 1 at 5pm. Done.
16M colour mixing
Full spectrum colour wheel — pick any shade, any zone.
Multi-zone control
Front, sides, back — control each section independently.
Everything the others charge extra for.
We include it.
Individual LED control, sound-reactive party mode, and a system that pays for itself. No monthly fees. No add-on packages. Just one install — and you're set for life.
Individual LED Mapping
Every single LED on your roofline is individually addressable. Change the colour, brightness, and pattern of each node independently — create custom designs, spell out messages, or run complex animations that competitors can't match.
Sound-Reactive Lighting
Built-in music sync turns your roofline into a light show. Your lights pulse, chase, and react to music in real time — perfect for house parties, game nights, or just making your neighbours jealous on a Friday evening.
Pay Once. Done Forever.
No subscription fees. No annual service charges. No "premium tier" to unlock features. You pay once for the install, and the system is yours — every feature, every update, every colour. Forever.
Every Holiday. Covered.
Christmas, Halloween, Canada Day, Diwali, Easter, Oilers game day — switch between holidays with a single tap. Pre-loaded scenes mean you're always ready. No more climbing ladders every December.
Proudly Canadian.
Ruthlessly efficient.
Starise is a locally owned Canadian company — not a franchise, not a reseller, not an American import. We design our systems for Canadian weather, Canadian homes, and Canadian electrical standards. And we build them to use as little energy as possible.
🍁 Canadian Through and Through
Founded and headquartered in Calgary, Alberta. Every dollar you spend stays in the Canadian economy.
Rated from −40°C to +60°C. Tested through Chinooks, blizzards, hailstorms, and scorching Okanagan summers. Our systems don't just survive Canadian weather — they thrive in it.
Every installer works for Starise directly. No random sub showing up in an unmarked van. Our team, our training, our standards.
No franchise fees baked into your price. No corporate call centre. When you call Starise, you get someone who actually installed lights this week.
⚡ The Most Efficient Lighting System You Can Buy
A full-home Starise system uses less electricity than a single 60W incandescent bulb running 24/7. Most homeowners see zero noticeable change on their power bill.
Higher voltage means less current drawn for the same brightness. 24V systems waste less energy as heat, last longer, and run cooler — that's physics, not marketing.
At 6 hours per night, that's over 22 years of daily use before a single LED needs attention. No bulbs to replace. No maintenance calls. No waste.
Auto sunset/sunrise means lights only run when needed. No timers to reset, no forgetting to turn them off. The system adapts to the season automatically.
Backed. Not just installed.
We stand behind every install with coverage that matches the system's expected lifespan. No fine print, no "voids if tampered with" nonsense.
