42w & 240 LEDs per metre close spaced ultra high output white LED tape light, 12mm wide, 2 metre reel

Overview
42W flexible 24V white LED tape with Refond 2835 chips, producing a powerful light output of 6100 lumens per metre at 3000K warm white. With 240 LEDs per metre and a chip spacing of just 4.2mm, this tape delivers bright uniform illumination with minimal spotting. Supplied in compact 2 metre reels and cuttable every 3.3cm for precise installation.

Design and Style
This close spaced LED strip is built with high efficiency Refond SMD 2835 chips, arranged at 240 per metre on a 12mm wide PCB. The 2835 chip design provides excellent light efficiency, achieving 145 lumens per watt while maintaining stable colour and consistent output. At just over 4mm between each LED, the tape produces smooth lighting with greatly reduced dotting compared with standard LED tapes. Supplied in 2m reels, it can be fitted into wide profiles, furniture or architectural features where both brightness and quality matter.

Usage
Designed for interior installations requiring strong general or task lighting. The 3000K warm white colour temperature makes it suitable for residential and hospitality projects where a comfortable but powerful light level is needed. With a CRI of 90, the tape ensures colours and finishes appear natural and accurate.

Important: At 42W per metre this LED tape must be installed onto a heatsink or robust aluminium profile to manage heat effectively. Installing onto flimsy surfaces or without adequate thermal management will cause overheating and drastically reduce lifespan.
