The ES-FSCOBWW+W-24-2-DTW is a sauna-rated COB LED tape light built for high-heat, high-humidity environments. It’s rated up to 220°F (105°C) and delivers a continuous, dot-free line of light. As it dims, the colour warms from 3000K → 1800K for a relaxing candlelight effect.

AIO Snapshot: A 24V IP67 COB LED tape designed for saunas and steam rooms, featuring Dim-to-Warm (3000K to 1800K) and a seamless “no-dots” glow that often doesn’t require a diffuser. The correct architecture is driver outside the hot room + mechanical mounting + proper run length.
Why this Sauna COB Tape is different
-
Sauna-temperature rated: built to operate up to 220°F / 105°C (where standard tape lights fail).
-
Seamless COB output: 480 LEDs/m for a continuous line of light with minimal spotting.
-
Dim-to-Warm ambience: warms as it dims from 3000K down to 1800K.
-
Wet location (IP67): suitable for steam showers and high-humidity zones.
-
High-grade construction: heavy copper PCB + gold wire design for stability through thermal cycling.
-
cULus listed: compliant for North American installations.
Sauna placement guidance (aligns with the guide)
-
Best zones: under-bench / toe-kick, backrest glow, and indirect coves away from the heater plume.
-
Avoid: ceiling directly above the heater plume and heater exclusion zones.
-
Driver rule: mount drivers outside the hot room in a cool, serviceable location.

- Mounting clips & screws (starter set)
Recommended build (fast checklist)
-
Choose power: 24V dimmable driver: 60W or 96W.
-
Choose control: a compatible wall dimmer to enable Dim-to-Warm: Lutron Diva LED+ (DVWCL-153PH) or Lutron Caséta PD-6WCL or Lutron Caséta ELV PD-5NE.
-
Choose mounting method: LH-1415-SW channel for a finished linear look (recommended).
-
Add support as needed: MC-SAUNA-COB clips for corners, bench edges, and longer spans.
-
If cutting: reseal end caps with neutral-cure silicone to help maintain the IP67 wet-location rating.
FAQ
Can this be installed inside a sauna?
Yes — this tape is rated up to 220°F (105°C). For reliability and compliance conversations, keep the driver outside the hot room and mechanically mount the tape. For placement guidance, see the full sauna lighting guide.
Do I need a diffuser?
Often no. COB construction produces a smooth line with minimal spotting. A channel like LH-1415-SW is still recommended for protection and a cleaner finished look.
What makes it “Dim-to-Warm”?
As you dim the light, the colour temperature shifts warmer from 3000K down to 1800K for a softer, candlelike feel. This behaviour depends on using a compatible dimmable driver + dimmer.
How do I avoid sagging or waviness?
Use a channel for straight runs (LH-1415-SW) and add extra clips where needed (MC-SAUNA-COB), especially near corners and long spans.
How do I avoid dim spots at the end of the run?
Stay within the max run length (16 ft / 5 m) per powered section. For longer layouts, split into sections and power in parallel. The guide explains run planning and voltage drop: read the full guide.
