480leds/M High Density COB LED Strip | Dotless Linear Lighting Wholesale

Product Overview

The 480LEDs/M High Density COB LED Strip from LEDLetsGo is engineered for projects that demand a perfectly seamless, dot-free line of light. Using Chip-on-Board (COB) packaging with 480 flip-chips per meter, this strip produces a continuous, shadow-free light output with no visible dots — even under mirror reflections and polished aluminium profiles. With CRI > 90, high brightness, and a flexible dual-layer PCB, it is the go-to choice for luxury kitchens, wardrobe and cabinet lighting, cove lighting, display cases, and architectural profile lighting.

320 LEDs/m vs 480 LEDs/m — Choosing the Right Density

Not sure whether to choose a 320LEDs/m or 480LEDs/m COB strip? The table below compares the two densities so you can match the right product to your application.

Rule of thumb: if the light line will be directly visible (open profile, mirror edge, glass shelf), choose 480LEDs/m for the smoothest appearance. If the strip is hidden inside a shallow channel with a diffuser, 320LEDs/m is a cost-effective alternative.

The 480leds/M series offers ultimate linear consistency, with pricing reflecting the higher LED chip density compared to the 320leds/M series.

Real-world application: seamless under-cabinet lighting in a modern kitchen using high-density COB strip.

Versatile Applications — Where 480 LEDs/m COB Strip Shines

Wherever light needs to look clean, continuous and premium — from high-end residential living rooms, staircases and walk-in wardrobes to luxury retail boutiques, glass display cabinets and hotel lobbies, corridors and suites — the 480LEDs/m COB strip delivers a flawless, spotless linear glow that ordinary LED strips simply cannot match.

With 480 ultra-dense COB chips per meter, light is emitted from one unbroken, dot-free line with no hotspots, no dark gaps and no visible pixel points at any viewing angle. This seamless linear aesthetic makes it the designer’s first choice for coves, shelf fronts, showcases, signage and architectural accents, where the light itself feels like part of the furniture.

Professional Buying Guide & Frequently Asked Questions

1. How does the 480LEDs/m COB strip handle heat dissipation?

The strip uses a dual-layer PCB with 2oz copper and a thermal insulating layer. The thicker copper trace spreads heat evenly along the strip, so even at 480 LEDs/m the temperature stays well controlled. For best results, mount the strip on an aluminium profile — the profile acts as a heat sink, further lowering junction temperature and extending lifespan. Thermal performance is determined by the actual wattage. At the same power consumption, 320leds/M and 480leds/M maintain consistent heat dissipation levels.

2. What is voltage drop, and how far can I run the strip in one run?

Voltage drop is the gradual reduction of voltage along the strip caused by the resistance of the copper traces, which makes the far end dimmer and yellower. To minimize it: use DC24V for runs longer than 5 meters (24V carries the same power at half the current of 12V), and connect additional power feeds every 10m for 24V (or every 5m for 12V). For very long continuous runs, we recommend parallel power injection.

3. Is the CRI consistent between batches?

Yes. We bin all LED chips before production and match color temperature and CRI within tight tolerances (MacAdam 3-step / 5-step binning available). Every production batch is tested for luminous flux, CRI and color temperature, so strips from different batches match within ±50K on CCT and within CRI ±1 when ordered at the same bin code.

4. What is the expected lifespan of this strip?

Rated at 50,000 hours (L70) under standard conditions with proper heat sinking on an aluminium profile. Actual service life depends on operating temperature and current: keeping the strip below 45°C ambient and driving it at rated voltage will maximize longevity.

5. Can the strip be installed at angles or around corners?

The flexible PCB allows a minimum bending radius of about 25-30mm, so gentle curves and corners are fine. For sharp 90° corners, cut at a marked point and join with a corner connector, or use a flexible aluminium corner profile to keep the light line continuous without stress on the PCB.

6. How and where should I cut the strip?

Cut only at the marked cut lines — 25mm for DC12V / 50mm for DC24V (cutting marks clearly indicated on the strip) — identified by the scissors icon and copper pads. Cut exactly through the center of the pads with sharp scissors. After cutting, the remaining section is fully functional and can be connected with the matching connector or soldered to a new power lead.

7. What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for wholesale orders?

Our standard MOQ for the 480LEDs/m COB strip is 100 reels (or 500m), and samples are always available before you commit. For trial stocking orders we can be flexible — contact our sales team for exact MOQ, tiered pricing, and freight options for your market.

8. What OEM / ODM customization options do you offer?

We support: custom color temperature and CRI, custom voltage (12V/24V), custom length and reel size, private-label printing on strip and packaging, custom connectors and lead wires, waterproofing (IP65/IP67/IP68), and bespoke retail packaging design. Minimum order for full OEM branding is typically 1000 reels, but we will review project-based requests.

9. Which power supply should I pair with this strip?

Calculate total wattage as: strip wattage per meter (e.g., 20W/m for 480LEDs/m at 24V) × total meters, then add 20% headroom. Use a constant-voltage (CV) power supply matching the strip voltage, and always use a supply with proper safety certification (CE/UL/CCC) for your market. For dimming, choose a matching dimmable driver (PWM/TRIAC/0-10V/DALI).

10. Does the strip support dimming, and which dimmers work?

Yes, the strip is fully dimmable from 0-100%. It works with: PWM dimmers (most common for LED strip), TRIAC/leading-edge dimmers (with a compatible dimmable driver), 0-10V dimmers, and DALI systems (with a DALI-to-PWM converter). For smooth, flicker-free results on camera, use a high-frequency PWM driver (above 2kHz).

11. Is there a waterproof version for outdoor or damp areas?

The standard version is IP20 for dry indoor use. For bathrooms, kitchens with high humidity, or outdoor areas, we offer IP65 (heat shrink tube) and IP67 (silicone tube waterproof) versions. Note that the waterproof version slightly reduces light output (~5-8%) and limits the minimum bending radius.

12. How bright is the 480LEDs/m COB strip?

Typical luminous flux is approximately 1000 lm/m (also depending on CCT and CRI; warm-white 2700K with CRI 95 outputs slightly less than cool-white 6000K at CRI 90). For precise photometric data, request test report files or a sample measurement report from our engineering team.

13. What warranty and after-sales support do you provide?

We provide a 3-year warranty against manufacturing defects. Our after-sales team supports you with installation guides, wiring diagrams, troubleshooting, and free replacement of any defective reels within the warranty period. Extended warranty and on-site support are available for large project orders.

14. Which color temperatures are available?

Stock color temperatures are 3000K, 4000K, and 6000K. Tunable white (2700K-6500K), RGB, RGBW and RGBCCT versions are also available in the COB family. If you need a specific CCT in between, our OEM service can produce custom bins from 2200K to 6500K.
