Ever missed the cozy amber glow of an old incandescent bulb when you dim the lights? This dim to warm LED strip brings it back. The 24V 5M IP20 2835 White Dim to Warm LED Strip (SKU DIMWRM-3000) from LED MONTREAL is a flexible LED strip light — also called LED tape, LED ribbon or LED strip lighting — built with two types of LED chips on the same board. At full power it gives you clean Warm White 3000K; as you dim it down, the light slides all the way to Vintage White 2200K, that candle-like tone people love in living rooms, restaurants and bedrooms. It is the go-to choice for cove lighting, under-cabinet lighting, toe-kicks, bookshelves, headboards, bars and LED ceiling lights strip details where atmosphere matters as much as brightness.

The specs back up the mood. Each roll is 5 meters long, 12mm wide and only 2mm high, with 192 LEDs per meter of Epistar 2835 SMD chips on a 2-ounce circuit board, so light output looks smooth instead of dotted. Count on a typical 1530 lumens per meter at 17W/m, with a recommended power supply sized at 19.2W/m, and a CRI 90+ that keeps wood grain, skin tones and paint colours looking true. The 120° beam spreads evenly, the strip runs on safe 24V DC low voltage, and it is cULus certified for Canada and the USA (E498952). It is rated IP20 for indoor use, can be cut every 14 LEDs (71mm), comes with 3M self-adhesive backing plus two 17cm wire leads on each end, and is rated for 50 000+ hours of life. Dimming works with a low voltage dimmer/remote combo, or with a dimmable power supply paired to a 120V AC dimmer.

From a Montreal condo kitchen to a cottage staircase, a boutique display or a café banquette, this strip delivers the warmth Canadian interiors crave through long winters. Contractors love it for crown-moulding coves and closet lighting; homeowners love it behind TVs and under vanities. Remember it must be mounted on a heat-dissipating surface or inside an aluminum channel for full lifespan, and it is for indoor use only, with an operating range of 40C to -10C. This listing is the strip only, so plan your 24V driver and dimmer accordingly. Roll it out and rediscover that golden low-light glow.

Built for smooth, even light
This LED tape light packs 192 LEDs per meter of Epistar 2835 SMD chips across a slim 12mm-wide, 2mm-high flexible board. The 2-ounce copper circuit board is a real advantage: more copper means better current distribution and better heat management along the full 5 meters, which protects colour consistency from one end of the run to the other. The 120° lighting angle spreads the output wide, so when the strip sits in a cove or behind a diffuser, you see a continuous line of light rather than a row of hot spots. Cut points fall every 14 LEDs (71mm), giving you plenty of flexibility to fit real-world cabinet and ceiling dimensions.

Dim to warm: the incandescent effect
What makes this dim to warm LED strip special is the two-chip design. Turn it up and you get Warm White 3000K for everyday tasks; turn it down and the colour temperature drifts to Vintage White 2200K, mimicking the amber shift of a traditional filament lamp. Combined with a CRI 90+ rating, the result is flattering, natural-looking light — ideal over a dining table, in a hotel-style bedroom, or along a restaurant bar where the room needs to change character between lunch and dinner service. Typical output is 1530 lumens per meter, enough for genuine accent and task lighting, not just decoration.

Electrical, dimming and installation
Running at 24V DC, this strip holds its brightness over longer runs than 12V tape and stays safe to handle during installation. Size your driver using the 19.2W/m recommendation and the actual length you install. Dimming is supported two ways: a low voltage dimmer/remote combo on the DC side, or a dimmable power supply controlled by a 120V AC dimmer on the line side — the second option is the one contractors usually choose when the client wants a wall dimmer. The pre-attached wires (17cm on each end) make series feeding and end-feeding straightforward. Heat matters: the strip must be installed on a heat-dissipating surface or inside an appropriate aluminum channel, which also gives a finished look and lets a diffuser hide the individual diodes. Keep it indoors, since the IP20 rating offers no protection against water.

Where to use it, and documentation
Think kitchen under-cabinet and toe-kick lighting, crown-moulding coves in a living room, staircase nosings, wardrobe and pantry shelving, headboard backlighting, reception desks, retail display cases and café millwork. Because the light warms as it dims, it suits any space that shifts from bright and functional to soft and intimate — a duplex kitchen that becomes an evening gathering spot, or a small clinic waiting room that needs to feel welcoming. For full details, the technical PDF for the 24V 5M IP20 2835 White Dim to Warm LED Strip - 196 LEDs/m (Strip Only) is available in the Documentation tab, with the complete specification table to hand to your electrician or designer. Note that this item is the strip only.
