Transform Your Space with Seamless COB Technology

Gone are the days of "dotted" LED strips that ruin the aesthetic of your interior design. The IMITOS COB-240P utilizes Chip-on-Board (COB) technology, where 240 LED chips are mounted directly onto an 8mm PCB. This creates a uniform, unbroken line of light that is much softer on the eyes and provides a premium look for modern Malaysian homes and retail outlets.

Engineered for Performance and Durability

At 10W per meter, this strip strikes the perfect balance between high brightness and energy efficiency. With a Lumen output of 100lm/W, you get a powerful 1000 lumens per meter, easily replacing traditional T5 fluorescent tubes. The CRI (Ra) of ≥ 80 ensures that colors under the light appear natural and vibrant, which is crucial for walk-in wardrobes, kitchen counters, and product showcases.

The 240V Advantage: No Driver, No Hassle
One of the biggest pain points for contractors in Malaysia is hiding bulky 12V or 24V power transformers. The IMITOS COB-240P connects directly to your AC240V mains supply. This not only simplifies installation but also allows for significantly longer runs (up to 50 meters) without the "voltage drop" issues that cause low-voltage strips to dim at the end of the line.

Versatile Outdoor & Indoor Protection
Featuring an IP54 rating, this LED strip is protected against dust and splashing water. While it shouldn't be submerged, it is perfectly suited for high-humidity areas like kitchens, bathrooms, or even sheltered outdoor areas like carporch coves and balcony ceilings.

Specification:

Q1: Can I cut the IMITOS 240V COB LED strip to my required length?
A: Yes, but unlike low-voltage strips, 240V strips usually have specific cutting intervals (typically every 0.5m or 1m). Ensure you only cut at the designated scissor marks to avoid damaging the circuit.

Q2: Do I need a power adapter for the IMITOS COB-240P?
A: No. This model is designed for AC240V direct input. You only need a standard power plug connector to attach it to your wall socket or lighting point.

Q3: What is the benefit of COB over standard SMD LED strips?
A: COB (Chip-on-Board) provides a continuous, seamless glow without visible dark spots or "dots," which are common in older SMD strips.

Q4: Is 10W/M bright enough for main lighting?
A: Yes. At 100lm/W, it produces 1000 lumens per meter, making it excellent for cove lighting, task lighting, and commercial ambiance.

Q5: Can I use this LED strip outdoors in Malaysia?
A: With an IP54 rating, it is splash-proof. It is safe for sheltered outdoor areas like balconies, but for areas exposed to heavy rain, an IP65 or IP67 rating is recommended.

Q6: What is CRI and why does Ra > 80 matter?
A: CRI (Color Rendering Index) measures how accurately a light source reveals colors. An Ra > 80 is the industry standard for high-quality indoor lighting where color accuracy is important.

Q7: Does the strip get hot during use?
A: COB technology has better heat dissipation than SMD. However, for 10W/M strips, we recommend mounting them on an aluminum profile to further extend the lifespan of the LEDs.

Q8: Can this 240V COB strip be dimmed?
A: This depends on the dimmer switch and the specific connector used. Always consult a qualified electrician before attempting to dim high-voltage LED strips.

Q9: What is the maximum length I can run in one go?
A: Because it is 240V, you can run the entire 50-meter roll from a single power source without experiencing brightness loss (voltage drop).

Q10: Which color temperature should I choose?
A: Use 3000K (Warm) for cozy living rooms/bedrooms, 4000K (Cool) for kitchens/workspaces, and 6000K (Daylight) for retail or high-visibility areas.
