As we all know, the biggest advantage of COB LED strip lights is their exceptional uniformity in light output. The light is almost without any granularity, resembling a "soft light band" that is not harsh on the eyes while adding a touch of sophistication. However, do you know its disadvantages?
Traditional COB LED strips use an upside-down chip soldering method onto the PCB board, which can lead to dead lights and makes it impossible to produce a drip-proof waterproof version. To address these issues, LW Lighting has launched the next-generation 2018 COB LED Strip:
- Upgraded Craftsmanship: The traditional COB upside-down chip soldering method has been replaced with the SMD chip direct attachment to the PCB board process, ensuring that the chips are more securely fixed, fundamentally solving the dead light and falling-off issues.
- Long Lifespan: The lifespan can reach over 35,000 hours.
- Better Light Efficiency: It offers higher and more uniform light efficiency.
- Cuttable LED Strip Lighting: The strip can be freely cut to meet installation needs, making it adaptable for various scenarios.
Widely used in various settings:
- Best LED strip lights for room: Provides warm and even lighting, enhancing the elegance of the space, especially in areas like kitchen cabinets.
- Commercial Displays: In retail spaces and restaurants, it attracts customers' attention.
- Outdoor Courtyards and Balcony Lighting: Supports IP65/IP67 waterproof ratings, making it resistant to rain and damp environments, creating a cozy and comfortable outdoor atmosphere.
- LED strip for mirror: Used for architectural illumination, such as outlining buildings, facades, and landscaping, adding dimension and artistic effect to the structure.

What is 2018 COB LED Strip?
The 2018 COB LED Strip is the next-generation Anywhere Free Cut COB LED Strip, combining the advantages of traditional COB technology and SMD craftsmanship, making it an innovative flexible lighting product.
It directly solders the 20×18mm SMD chip light source onto the PCB board, making it sturdier and less prone to falling off compared to traditional COB LED strips. At the same time, it offers uniform and soft light output, almost without any granularity, providing a high-quality lighting experience for various home, commercial, and architectural applications.
Product Features
1. Freely Cuttable, More Adaptable
Anywhere Free Cut COB LED Strip offers enhanced adaptability with its ability to be freely cut to any length according to actual needs. It easily adapts to various space layouts and installation plans, while maintaining continuous and soft lighting. 12 volt led lights strips ensures that every segment of the strip has even brightness without any dark spots, and it perfectly fits into LED strip for mirror and aluminum profiles.
2. High Efficiency and Stability, Reliable Light Output
The light efficiency is approximately 30% higher than traditional COB, providing greater brightness and more uniform light. The color consistency is excellent, and the luminous surface is smooth and stable. Even with prolonged continuous operation, it maintains linear light efficiency and reliable performance, delivering durable and high-quality lighting for custom LED strip projects.
3. Various Waterproof Types
The Anywhere Free Cut COB LED Strip can be made with various waterproof ratings (e.g., IP20, IP65, IP67, IP68) to meet different installation requirements in diverse environments.
- IP20 Non-Waterproof Type: Suitable for dry indoor environments, such as display cabinets, ceiling trough lights, or decorative lighting, offering pure light efficiency.
- IP65 Tube Waterproof Type: Encased in a transparent waterproof tube, it resists moisture and water droplets, making it perfect for kitchens, balconies, and semi-outdoor areas.
- IP67 Extruded Silicone Waterproof Type: With an overall encapsulated design, it can withstand short-term immersion, making it ideal for outdoor facades, landscape lighting, and poolside environments.
