The Canolight CL-ST-COB-480-9-2420-3K is built on Chip-on-Board (COB) technology, which places hundreds of LED chips directly onto the PCB in a continuous linear arrangement. Unlike traditional SMD strips, COB strips eliminate the visible hotspots and individual LED dots that can undermine the visual quality of a lighting installation. The result is a perfectly smooth, ribbon-like beam of light that elevates any space it illuminates.
At 480 LEDs per metre, this is one of the highest-density COB configurations available, ensuring exceptional uniformity even at very close viewing distances. The 8mm PCB width keeps the strip slim and discreet, allowing it to fit into narrow channels, aluminium extrusions, and tight architectural details without compromising aesthetics. This makes it an excellent choice for designers and contractors seeking a clean, professional finish.
Running on 24V DC with a consumption of 9 watts per metre, the strip is compatible with a wide range of standard LED drivers and dimmable power supplies. The low voltage operation enhances safety on the job site and in residential settings alike, while the efficient power draw helps reduce operating costs across large-scale installations. The 5-metre roll format simplifies project planning and minimizes waste.
The 3000K warm white output creates a soft, natural ambiance reminiscent of traditional incandescent lighting — without the heat or energy inefficiency. This colour temperature is widely favoured in hospitality, retail, and residential design for its ability to flatter skin tones, enhance product displays, and create a sense of comfort. Whether used for under-cabinet lighting, cove details, or backlit panels, the warm tone consistently delivers premium results.
With an IP20 protection rating, this COB strip is designed for dry indoor environments, providing consistent performance in living rooms, bedrooms, offices, retail spaces, and more. Canolight's rigorous manufacturing standards ensure that every roll meets strict quality controls, giving contractors and designers the confidence to specify this product for demanding professional projects across Canada.
