Chip-on-board LEDs packed so tightly the strip glows as one smooth line, with IC control that runs rainbows and chases along it, 80ft of it split across two rolls.
Ordinary LED strip shows its LEDs: a row of bright points with gaps between, obvious wherever the strip is in view. COB strip packs its tiny chips so densely under a soft coating that the whole length glows as a single line. BUNACET's 80ft kit uses that construction with a 180° beam, so the light spreads wide and even, without the spotty look.
The second half of the name matters just as much. RGB+IC means the strip carries control chips that address sections separately, so a rainbow can sit along the line at once, or a chase can run from one end to the other. A plain RGB strip shows one colour at a time; this one paints several.
What the Magic Lantern app opens up:
A memory function brings the lights back in the last state they were in when power returns. Set a favourite colour once, and a wall switch or smart plug can run the strip from then on.
The kit arrives as two 40ft rolls with one UL-listed 24V adapter, one 3-key signal receiver and a 44-key RF remote. Rated at 72W across the full 80ft, it runs at low voltage, so the strip is safe to touch while lit. It is an indoor kit, rated IP20, meant for dry rooms.

Eighty feet goes a long way. Round the top of the walls in a typical bedroom or gaming room, one 40ft roll can outline most of the ceiling line, and the second can go under the desk, behind the monitors or up a shelf unit. Because both rolls answer the same receiver, every chase and colour stays in step across the room.
Places where the dotless COB line pays off most:
COB strip bends along its length more gracefully than bead strip, because there are no hard LED packages to crease. Still, fold corners gently and do not twist the strip sideways over tight radii. On a ceiling line, a few clips under the tape help once warm air starts working on the adhesive.
The music modes and timers across the light apps are compared side by side for anyone choosing between Magic Lantern, Lotus Lantern and duoCo.
Plenty of cheap LED lighting flickers on camera even when it looks steady to the eye. Phones and cameras catch that as rolling bands or a shimmer across the frame. BUNACET builds this COB strip for stable output, so recording video under it shows no strobe effect, which matters for streamers, video calls and anyone who films their setup.
That makes the kit a good fit for rooms where the lights appear on screen:
Keep to static colours or slow fades while recording. Fast chases and blink modes still read as motion on camera, which is part of the fun at a party but distracting behind a talking head.
The 180° beam helps on camera as well. Light leaves the strip in a wide fan instead of a narrow cone, so a wall behind a desk fills evenly rather than showing bright bands. Stuck along the back edge of a desk and facing the paint, the strip throws a soft wash up the wall that reads well in a webcam frame.
Three control routes cover every situation:
| Control | Handles | Handy when |
|---|---|---|
| Magic Lantern app | All 213 modes, DIY colours, music, mic, timer | Setting up scenes |
| 44-key RF remote | Colours, brightness, speed, modes | From the sofa or gaming chair |
| 3-key receiver button | On/off, mode, colour | Remote lost, phone flat |
RF remotes work without line of sight, so the receiver can hide behind a desk or up on a wardrobe and still hear the button presses. Pairing the app follows the in-app method used by most Bluetooth light controllers; the step-by-step pairing notes apply to the general routine.
The 80ft kit is the long indoor option, but BUNACET sells the same COB RGB+IC strip in three other sizes. Two of them move outside: a 20ft and a 40ft single roll with an IP67 strip, an IP44 receiver and adapter, and screws for fixing. The other is a smaller indoor pair of 20ft rolls.
| Kit | Rolls | Setting | Extras |
|---|---|---|---|
| 80ft | 2 × 40ft | Indoor, IP20 | RF remote, 3-key receiver |
| 40ft | 2 × 20ft | Indoor | RF remote, receiver, connector, tape |
| 40ft outdoor | 1 × 40ft | IP67 strip, IP44 receiver and adapter | RF remote, screws |
| 20ft outdoor | 1 × 20ft | IP67 strip, IP44 receiver and adapter | RF remote, screws |
For a porch rail, patio edge or garden steps, pick an outdoor roll. The IP67 strip handles rain; the IP44 receiver and adapter resist splashes but should still sit under cover.
The outdoor rolls come as single lengths, 20ft or 40ft, each with its own adapter. Long reach under one remote belongs to the indoor twin-roll kits, so a deck that needs more than 40ft means two outdoor sets on separate receivers.
Other COB and chasing strips on the same shelf:
Before ordering, measure the full route and add a margin, decide indoor or outdoor, count the breaks where 3-pin connectors will be needed, and check where the adapter can plug in. The ELK-BLEDOM light lineup has neon rope and TV strips for the spots COB does not reach.
No, the 80ft kit is rated IP20 for dry indoor rooms. BUNACET's 20ft and 40ft outdoor rolls carry an IP67 strip with an IP44 receiver and adapter.
Magic Lantern, with 16 million colours, 213 modes, music sync, mic mode and a timer.
Yes. To rejoin pieces or bridge a gap you need 3-pin connectors, which are not included.
BUNACET builds it for stable output with no strobe on phone or camera video. Fast effect modes still show as motion.
