Brand: NEXLEDS

Upgrade your home lighting with this premium COB LED tape light from NEXLEDS, designed to deliver a smooth, dot-free glow that transforms any space. Unlike traditional LED strip lights, this chip-on-board tape light produces a continuous ribbon of light that looks seamless under cabinets, along shelving, inside coves, and around architectural features. Whether you're refreshing your kitchen, adding ambiance to a living room, or illuminating a bedroom accent wall, this flexible LED strip lighting offers a beautifully even output that homeowners love.

This versatile LED ribbon light comes in a generous reel length, giving you plenty of coverage for most residential projects without awkward splicing or joins. It features an impressively high CRI rating, which means the colours in your home — from your backsplash tile to your favourite artwork — will look rich, vibrant, and true to life. The tape itself is slim and flexible, making it easy to install in tight spots like toe kicks, display niches, and under-cabinet lighting applications where a sleek, hidden profile is essential.

Built for Canadian homes, this NEXLEDS product is certified to Canadian electrical standards so you can install with confidence. Available in multiple colour temperature options across the product family, it's easy to find the right warmth and mood for every room. Whether you call it LED tape light, strip lighting, or flexible LED ribbon, this is one of the simplest and most impactful upgrades you can make during your next renovation project.

This NEXLEDS COB LED tape light utilizes advanced chip-on-board technology with an ultra-high chip density that eliminates the hot spots and visible dots commonly associated with conventional SMD-style LED strips. The tightly packed LED chips are mounted directly onto a flexible substrate, producing a uniform, continuous line of illumination that is ideal for applications where the light source may be partially visible. The result is a professional-grade lighting effect with a high CRI rating, ensuring outstanding colour rendering for residential interiors where accurate colour representation matters.

Thermal management is a critical factor in LED longevity, and this tape light is engineered with an efficient heat-dissipating substrate that draws warmth away from the LED chips during operation. To achieve optimal performance and lifespan, pairing this product with a high-quality, constant-voltage LED driver rated for the appropriate load is strongly recommended. A well-matched driver ensures stable current delivery, prevents flickering, and supports dimming capability when used with a compatible dimmer module.

This product carries an IP20 rating, making it suitable for dry, indoor locations such as living areas, bedrooms, closets, and interior architectural features. For wet or damp environments like bathrooms or covered outdoor areas, higher IP-rated versions within the NEXLEDS product family should be considered. The tape light is cUL/CSA approved, meeting rigorous Canadian electrical safety standards and giving homeowners and electricians alike the assurance that the product has been independently tested and certified for safe residential use.

Compared to traditional incandescent or halogen accent lighting, this energy-efficient LED tape light consumes significantly less power while delivering equal or superior light output, contributing to meaningful savings on your electricity bill over time. Installation is straightforward thanks to an integrated adhesive backing that bonds securely to clean, dry surfaces, and the tape can be cut at designated intervals to fit your specific layout. When paired with appropriate aluminium mounting channels and diffuser covers, you can achieve a polished, built-in look that elevates the overall finish of any renovation project.
