What is a COB LED Strip Light?

If you’re searching for a highly efficient lighting solution for your next project, COB LED strip lights are definitely worth considering. Their high-density LED chips provide a continuous, seamless beam of light, resulting in a smooth, premium finish for any installation.

COB technology offers excellent performance, making it a top choice for achieving a refined and professional lighting setup. Here’s everything you need to know about COB LED strip lights.

What is COB LED Strip Light?

COB stands for Chip on Board, a technology where the LED chips are mounted directly onto the printed circuit board (PCB). A phosphor coating is then applied over the diodes, creating a built-in diffuser that eliminates visible hotspots. This leads to a smooth, consistent light output, even in installations with minimal space or shallow profiles, ensuring a sleek, spotless look.

This feature makes COB Continuous LED Strip Lights an ideal choice for high-end commercial or residential lighting projects. The high-quality materials and construction guarantee long-lasting performance and reliability.

COB vs. Traditional LED Strip Lights

Unlike traditional LED strip lights that use SMD (Surface-Mounted Diode) technology—where the LEDs are spaced apart on the surface of the strip—COB LED strips feature LEDs that are densely packed onto the PCB. Standard SMD strips might accommodate up to 240 LEDs per metre, but COB strips can support up to 544 LEDs per metre, significantly reducing visible spots and gaps in the lighting.

SMD LED strips are more likely to produce visible hotspots, especially in installations where the profile or diffuser is shallow or clear. COB LEDs eliminate these spots, providing uniform, even lighting without the need for additional diffusers.
