Say goodbye to the dotted, spotty look of old strip lighting. The LumenstarLED LS-FLI-9D-24-480-35K is a 24V DC COB LED tape — also called LED tape light, LED strip light, LED ribbon or tape lighting — built with Chip-on-Board technology that fuses the diodes into one continuous line of light. Instead of seeing individual dots through a diffuser, you get a smooth, unbroken glow from one end of the roll to the other. That's exactly what people are after when they search for dimmable LED strip lights for coves, under-cabinet runs, display cases, stair nosings, headboards, millwork reveals and backlit shelving. With 480 LEDs per metre packed into the strip, this tape reads as a clean line of illumination rather than a row of points — the kind of detail that makes a renovation look professionally designed rather than improvised.

The numbers behind it are just as reassuring. It runs on a stable 24V DC supply, which holds up far better than 12V over long distances, so you can pull extended runs without watching the far end fade. Power draw sits at 10W per metre (3W per foot), keeping consumption modest across the full 25 m (82') roll. A CRI 90 rating puts it in high-fidelity territory: wood grain, paint, fabric, skin tones and merchandise all look like themselves instead of washed out. The 3500K colour temperature lands in that sweet spot between cozy and crisp — warm enough for a living room, clean enough for a kitchen or a retail display. The tape is fully dimmable, and it is built for indoor, climate-controlled environments.

Where does it shine? Kitchens and butler's pantries, basement renovations, cove ceilings in condos, hotel corridors, restaurant banquettes, boutique shelving, salon mirrors, office reception walls and custom cabinetry shops across Canada. Because the roll is 25 metres continuous, you cut fewer splices, which means fewer connection points to fail and a cleaner finished result — a real advantage in long hallway coves or wraparound bulkheads. Plan on a 24V DC driver sized for your total load, and an aluminum channel with a diffuser wherever the tape will be visible. Ready to trade dotty strip light for a single, flawless line of light? Roll out the COB LED tape 24V and see the difference on the very first metre.

COB construction: one line, zero dots
Traditional SMD strips space individual chips along a board, so you see a repeating pattern of bright points and darker gaps — obvious the moment the tape is mounted near a wall or behind a shallow diffuser. This COB LED tape uses Chip-on-Board construction with 480 LEDs per metre bonded under a continuous phosphor layer, producing a uniform luminous surface. The practical payoff is shadow-free, hot-spot-free light: grazing a textured feature wall, washing a cove ceiling, or lighting a countertop through a frosted lens, the result reads as one clean band. For designers and cabinetmakers, that uniformity is often the whole point of the detail.

Light quality and colour
With a CRI 90 rating, this tape renders colour with high fidelity — important anywhere people judge materials, food, artwork or merchandise. Paired with a 3500K white, you get a neutral-warm tone that flatters wood and warm paint without turning amber, and keeps whites looking clean. It's a versatile temperature for mixed spaces: a kitchen that opens onto a living room, a boutique that wants warmth without yellow, a restaurant that still needs its plates to look appetizing under the light.

Electrical and installation notes
Running at 24V DC rather than 12V is the reason this tape handles long continuous runs so gracefully: the higher voltage means less current for the same output, and less current means less voltage drop along the copper. Total your load first — 10W per metre multiplied by the metres you plan to feed — then choose a 24V DC driver with comfortable headroom, and feed longer installations from both ends or from a centre point when the run is substantial. Mount on a clean, dry, degreased surface; aluminum profile with a diffuser lens is strongly recommended both for heat management and to hide the tape itself. Cut only on the marked cut points, and keep connections mechanically secure so the finished line stays consistent. Because the tape is dimmable, pair it with a compatible 24V dimming control so you can drop a display cove to a soft glow in the evening and bring it back up for daytime work.

Where it earns its keep
Think under-cabinet task lighting in a kitchen renovation, toe-kick and stair accent lighting in a finished basement, backlit floating shelves in a home office, cove lighting around a condo living room ceiling, illuminated closet interiors, reception desk reveals, jewellery and bakery display cases, hotel corridor recesses and restaurant banquette backlighting. The 25-metre roll lets a contractor cover several rooms or an entire perimeter from a single reel, with fewer splices and a tidier result. This product is indoor-rated, so keep it in climate-controlled interior spaces rather than exposed or wet locations.
