DENO LED Lighting

8mm COB LED Strip — Slim 24V, 480–576 LEDs/m

The 8mm COB LED strip product family from DENO LED offers three single-color models designed for professional lighting applications. These strips operate at 24V, with power densities ranging from 5W/m to 10W/m. Key features include a high CRI of 90+, ensuring accurate color rendition, and a tight 1 SDCM binning for color consistency. With a cut unit of 50mm, these strips are suitable for various linear lighting installations, including under-cabinet, cove, and display lighting, where a uniform, dot-free illumination is required.

8mm COB LED Strip — Buyer Questions

When should you use an 8mm COB LED strip instead of 10mm?

Use the 8 mm board when the profile is narrow or the strip must hide inside joinery, and the load stays under about 10W/m. It carries 480 to 576 LEDs/m with the same dot-free 180° line as the 10 mm build, but with less copper it is more sensitive to long runs and high drive currents.

Is an 8mm dot-free LED strip bright enough for cove lighting?

Yes for most coves. At 8–10W/m an 8 mm COB tape puts out roughly 1200–1600 lm/m at 4000K, which lifts a 2.7–3 m ceiling comfortably. For double-height atriums or wall-wash throws over 4 m, step up to a 10 mm board or the SOB high-power line.

Can an 8mm COB LED strip be mounted in a shallow profile?

Yes, and that is its main advantage. Because the emitting surface is already continuous, an 8 mm COB tape needs no diffuser gap — 6–8 mm of depth behind a frosted lens is enough for an even line, where an SMD tape would need 15–20 mm to hide dots.

Do you supply 8mm COB LED strip in 5m, 15m and 30m reels?

Yes. Standard 24V reels ship at 5 m, and roll-to-roll unibody production allows continuous 15 m and 30 m reels without a solder joint along the run. Long reels remove the dark gaps that reel-to-reel joints create in a continuous cove line.

Frequently asked questions

What are the primary advantages of using an 8mm COB LED strip compared to traditional SMD LED strips for professional installations?

The 8mm COB LED strip offers a continuous, dot-free illumination due to its Chip-on-Board technology, eliminating visible hot spots. This provides a uniform light line, ideal for applications with reflective surfaces or where direct viewing of the strip is possible. The narrow 8mm width also allows for discreet integration into compact profiles and tight architectural spaces.

What are the available power densities and corresponding lumen outputs for the 8mm COB LED strip models?

DENO LED's 8mm COB LED strip models are available in power densities of 5W/m, 8W/m, and 10W/m. Specific lumen outputs vary by CCT and power density, but all models maintain a CRI 90+ and operate at 24V. Detailed lumen efficacy data for each variant is available in the product specifications.

Can these 8mm COB LED strips be customized for specific project lengths or CCTs, and what is the typical lead time for custom orders?

Yes, DENO LED offers OEM customization for specific project lengths beyond standard reel sizes, as well as specific CCTs within the available range. As an ODM manufacturer, custom requirements are accommodated. Lead times for customized 8mm COB LED strip orders depend on order volume and specific requirements, typically communicated upon inquiry.

What are the recommendations for power supply selection and maximum run lengths to prevent voltage drop with the 8mm COB LED strip?

For optimal performance, a 24V constant voltage power supply with at least 10-15% overhead is recommended. Maximum run lengths for the 8mm COB LED strip depend on the specific power density and wire gauge used. Consulting voltage drop calculators or DENO LED's technical specifications is advised to ensure uniform brightness across the entire length.
