COB (Chip On Board) LED strip lights are a type of lighting technology where multiple LED chips are mounted directly onto the strip without gaps between them, creating a continuous line of light. This design eliminates the “dot effect” that is often seen in traditional LED strips. The result is a more uniform, diffused light output.

Here are some features of COB LED strip lights:

1. **Smooth Illumination**: They provide a smooth, linear light with no visible individual diodes.

2. **High Brightness**: Because of the closely packed LEDs, COB strips are often brighter than standard SMD (Surface Mounted Diode) LED strips.

3. **Energy Efficiency**: Like all LED lighting, COB strips are energy efficient and produce less heat.

4. **Flexibility**:
These strips are flexible and can be bent around corners, making them ideal for a variety of applications.

5. **Applications**
They are commonly used for architectural lighting, under-cabinet lighting, accent lighting, and in places where a soft, continuous light is desired.
