Green Earth COB CORE Waterproof – Affordable Dotless LED Strip Lighting
Discover beautiful, seamless lighting without the premium price tag. The Green Earth COB CORE IP68 Dotless LED Strip – 3000K Warm White is part of our economical CORE Collection, bringing together smooth illumination, flexible installation and excellent everyday value.
Designed for kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, cabinetry, shelving, wet areas and outdoor applications, this versatile 24V LED strip features a protective, thermally conductive silicone encasing that provides additional durability and moisture resistance.
Unlike conventional exposed LED strips, COB CORE's silicone construction makes it particularly convenient for suitable installations without an aluminium profile, helping reduce installation costs. For the best long-term performance and a professional finish, we still recommend aluminium profiles wherever practical.
Delivering 680 lumens per metre, CRI 90+ and a welcoming 3000K warm white glow, COB CORE is an economical choice for residential and commercial lighting projects.

Silicone-Encased Design – More Installation Freedom
Green Earth COB CORE features a protective, thermally conductive silicone extrusion that distinguishes it from traditional exposed COB LED strip lighting.
The silicone encasing provides an additional layer of protection against moisture, dust and everyday contact while helping manage operating temperatures.
One of its biggest advantages is the ability to install the strip without an aluminium profile in suitable applications, creating a clean, streamlined appearance and reducing the cost of some installations.
Our recommendation: Although an aluminium profile is not mandatory for every suitable installation, we recommend one wherever practical for improved heat dissipation, protection, long-term performance and a professional finish.

Important – Cutting & Connection Limitations
COB CORE can be cut at its designated 50mm cutting intervals to achieve the required installation length.
However, due to the protective silicone encasing, the strip is not compatible with conventional solderless strip connectors, clip-on joiners, corner connectors or standard snap-on extension connectors.
Individual strip lengths cannot be joined together using standard connectors. Separate sections require appropriate factory-prepared or professionally terminated cable connections.
If cutting a reel on-site, any newly exposed ends must be correctly sealed and protected. Cutting the strip does not automatically maintain its original IP68 protection.
For installations requiring multiple joined sections, connector-based installations or more specialised configurations, consider our Green Earth COB PRO range.

How to Order Custom Lengths
Option 1 – Order by the Metre
Select the Per Metre option and choose the quantity required.
For example, if you require a 1.3 metre length, select a quantity of 2 metres and add a cart note requesting a finished length of 1.3 metres.
Custom lengths must follow the available 50mm cutting increments. Please specify your required finished length and any cable termination requirements in your cart notes.
Option 2 – Order an Uncut Reel
Choose a 5 metre or 10 metre reel for installation and cutting on-site.
Reels may be trimmed at the designated cutting points. Any cut ends must be correctly sealed and terminated before use, particularly in outdoor or wet-area installations.

24V LED Driver Required
Green Earth COB CORE operates on 24V DC constant voltage and requires a compatible LED driver, sold separately unless specified.
With a power consumption of 10 watts per metre, calculate the total wattage of your installation and select a driver with suitable additional capacity.
As a general recommendation, allow approximately 20% spare driver capacity for reliable operation.
For example:
- 1 metre: 10W load – minimum recommended 12W driver
- 2 metres: 20W load – minimum recommended 24W driver
- 3 metres: 30W load – minimum recommended 36W driver
- 5 metres: 50W load – minimum recommended 60W driver
- 10 metres: 100W load – minimum recommended 120W total driver capacity, subject to wiring arrangement and voltage drop
Driver selection must also account for installation conditions, cable length, voltage drop and the manufacturer's permitted strip run length.
We can assist with suitable power supply selection and factory-prepared cable connections for your installation.
