PRODUCT DETAILS:
HitLights 12V COB LED Strip Light is a single-color, UL-listed LED tape designed to deliver smooth, spotless lighting across its full 16.4-foot length. Using COB (chip-on-board) technology, it produces a continuous line of light without the visible diode hot spots common in traditional LED strips.
This 12V DC strip is available in 3000K warm white or 4000K neutral white, with a high CRI of 90+ for accurate, natural color rendering in kitchens, display cases, retail shelving, and architectural accents. Each reel draws about 3.048 watts per foot (around 50 watts per 16.4 ft) and outputs roughly 327–351 lumens per foot, providing bright, energy-efficient task and accent lighting.
Unlike traditional SMD strips with visible dots, this COB LED tape uses flip-chip LEDs and a dense layout of 2560 LEDs per reel to create an ultra-uniform glow, especially when installed in aluminum channels or under cabinets. A 180° beam angle helps fill surfaces evenly, reducing shadows.
- 12V COB single-color strip, 16.4 ft (5 m), 10 mm width
- IP20 indoor rating, ideal for dry interiors and cabinetry
- Dimmable with compatible 12V drivers and standard control protocols (ELV, TRIAC, 0–10V, DMX, DALI, RF)
- Cuttable sections every 48.2 mm (1.9 in) for custom lengths
- Rated lifetime of 50,000 hours, backed by a 6-year warranty
The strip is UL-listed for safety and pairs well with HitLights 12V power supplies, dimmable drivers, and 10 mm single-color connectors. It is IP20 and intended for indoor use only, making it suitable for built-ins, coves, shelves, and feature walls rather than exposed outdoor locations.
For installers, cabinet makers, and serious DIYers who need clean, professional-grade linear lighting, this COB strip offers an efficient, flexible solution that integrates seamlessly with low-voltage lighting systems

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q: What is the HitLights 12V COB LED strip light used for?
A: It is a single-color 12V COB LED strip designed for smooth indoor linear lighting on shelves, cabinets, coves, and displays. The high LED density and COB technology create a continuous line of light without visible dots, making it suitable for both task lighting and architectural accent lighting.
Q: Who is this COB LED strip best suited for?
A: This strip is ideal for electricians, cabinet makers, remodelers, and DIY users who want professional-grade, low-voltage lighting. Its UL listing, high CRI rating, and 50,000-hour lifetime make it appropriate for residential projects, commercial fit-outs, and retail display applications where consistent color and reliability matter.
Q: How does the COB strip light work and how is it powered?
A: The strip uses COB flip-chip LEDs on a flexible 12V DC tape, which must be connected to a compatible 12V power supply or dimmable driver. It can be dimmed with most common control protocols, including ELV, TRIAC, 0–10V, DMX, DALI, and RF, when used with appropriate dimmers and drivers.
Q: What are the main specifications of this COB LED strip?
A: Each 16.4-foot reel is 10 mm wide, operates at 12V DC, and draws about 3.048 watts per foot. It offers a CRI of 90+, a beam angle of 180 degrees, and a luminous output of approximately 327–351 lumens per foot. The strip is IP20 rated for indoor use and has a 50,000-hour rated lifetime with a 6-year warranty.
Q: Can the strip be cut or customized in length?
A: Yes. The COB strip can be cut at marked points approximately every 48.2 millimeters, or about 1.9 inches, allowing custom lengths for cabinetry, shelving, or display runs. After cutting, users can connect segments with compatible 10 mm 2-pin single-color connectors or by soldering the pads according to low-voltage wiring standards.
Q: Is this LED strip suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
A: No. This model has an IP20 rating and is intended for dry, indoor environments only. It should not be installed in locations exposed to water, heavy condensation, or direct weather. For outdoor or damp locations, a higher IP-rated strip, such as IP65 or above, is required.
Q: What comes in the package and what additional parts are needed?
A: The package includes one 16.4-foot COB LED strip reel with adhesive backing. A separate 12V DC power supply, optional dimmable driver, connectors, and mounting channels are required for installation and are available as compatible accessories from HitLights.
