- Does it need a separate controller?
- Yes for color changes and dimming. The strip itself is dimmable, but you need a compatible dimmer or controller to adjust it.
- Can I cut it to fit?
- Only with care. COB strips have no clearly marked cut points, so trimming in the wrong place can kill the rest of the run.
- Is it bright enough as main room lighting?
- No. It is accent lighting. Use it under cabinets, behind a TV or in a cove, not as the only light in a room.
- How does it compare with regular SMD LED strips?
- COB gives a continuous line with no visible dots, while SMD strips show individual LEDs. COB usually costs more and is harder to cut.
- Where can it be used?
- Indoors only. It is not rated for bathrooms, outdoors or other wet locations.
- Where is the Lukvuzo High Density COB LED Strip Lights 32.8ft cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $119.98, as of our latest check.
