Say goodbye to the dotted look of old LED strip lights — the SOB10 puts a perfectly smooth, continuous line of light wherever you need it. Also called a LED light strip, LED tape, ribbon or LED strip lighting, this 2216-SOB model from LED MONTREAL packs 320 LEDs per meter in a single-colour warm white strip that reads as one clean beam instead of a row of dots. It's the strip people reach for when the light will actually be seen: under kitchen cabinets, in coves and ceiling recesses, along stairs, inside display cases, in closets, home offices and store shelving. Built with a Reel to Reel continuous manufacturing process, it has fewer solder joints than a standard strip, which means more uniform conductivity, a lower risk of connection failure, more consistent light output over the full run and a cleaner, more professional finish. SKU 5MSOB10-3000.

The numbers back it up. The SOB10 runs on 24V DC and draws 15W per meter for a typical output of 1700 lumens per meter — plenty of usable, even light — with a CRI of 90+ so wood grain, paint, food and fabrics look true. Its 3000K warm white colour temperature keeps rooms cozy, and the 180° beam angle spreads light wide instead of punching it forward. The reel gives you 5 meters at 10mm wide and only 2.5mm high, so it slips into slim channels, and the Epistar 2216 SOB chips sit on a 3-ounce circuit board for solid current carrying and heat handling. Best of all, you can cut it every 6.25mm instead of every 2 or 5cm, so the lit length matches your profile exactly — no dark end. It's rated IP20 for indoor use, is cULus certified for Canada and the USA (E498952), carries a 3M self-adhesive back and is rated 50 000+ hours of life.

This strip shines in kitchens, bathrooms, living-room coves, basements, walk-in closets, hotel corridors, offices, boutiques and restaurant millwork — anywhere a visible line of light needs to look intentional. Canadian installers love it for the tight cut increments when trimming to a cabinet run. It is dimmable with a low voltage dimmer/remote combo or with a dimmable power supply paired with a 120V AC dimmer, and it must be installed on a heat dissipating surface or in an appropriate aluminum channel — the 8 feet aluminum U shape profile for LED strip (LUX740) is a natural match. Note that this is the strip only: plan your 24V power supply separately at 18W per meter. Ready to upgrade your lighting line? Add the SOB10 to your project today.

A strip built like no other
The 2216-SOB isn't a small tweak on the usual LED strip lighting recipe — it's a different way of building a strip. Made with Reel to Reel technology, a continuous manufacturing process, it has far fewer solder joints than a conventional tape. The result is better long-term reliability, more uniform conductivity along the run, a reduced risk of connection failure, more consistent light output from end to end and a cleaner, more professional finish. The board itself uses 3 ounces of copper, which helps carry current over long runs and pull heat away from the Epistar 2216 SOB chips. At 10mm wide and just 2.5mm high, the SOB10 hides easily in millwork, coves and slim aluminum channels.

Light quality you can see
With 320 LEDs per meter, the diodes sit so close together that the strip reads as a continuous line rather than a string of dots — that's the whole point of a SOB (Spot On Board) LED strip. Typical output is 1700 lumens per meter (slightly variable depending on the Kelvin chosen) in a 3000K warm white that flatters wood, stone and skin tones. The CRI 90+ rendering keeps colours honest, which matters enormously in kitchens, bathrooms, closets and retail displays where people judge colour. A 180° lighting angle spreads the light broadly, so a single run in a cove or under a cabinet washes the surface evenly instead of leaving hot spots.

Wiring, dimming and installation
Each reel arrives with 2 wires (1 meter) on one end and 2 wires (1 meter) on the other end, so you can feed power from either side or bridge two sections without fuss. Size your driver using the recommended 18W per meter rather than the 15W draw, to keep a safety margin: a full 5-meter reel therefore needs a 24V DC supply sized accordingly. The strip is dimmable either with a low voltage dimmer/remote combo on the DC side, or with a dimmable power supply controlled by a 120V AC dimmer on the line side. Heat dissipation is not optional: the SOB10 must be installed on a heat dissipating surface or inside an appropriate aluminum channel. The 3M adhesive backing holds it in place while you work, and the 6.25mm cut increment lets you trim the lit length to the exact size of your profile, eliminating the dark ends you normally see when the strip is shorter than the extrusion.

Applications, compatibility and documentation
Think under-cabinet kitchen lighting, a warm cove around a living-room ceiling, bathroom vanity and mirror surrounds, stair nosings, walk-in closet shelving, reception desks, bar fronts, boutique display cases and office feature walls — residential and commercial alike. Because it is IP20, keep it indoors and dry. For a finished look and the required heat sinking, pair it with the 8 feet aluminum U shape profile for LED strip (LUX740), whose length can be matched precisely thanks to the fine cut spacing. Remember this listing is the strip only: power supply, dimmer and profile are purchased separately.
