It bothers me that the setting is called LED voltage but refers to current. But at least it refers to current, because controlling the voltage to power an LED is a recipe for a burnt out LED.
This is a weird setting that must be in some brand new release because I've been using WLED for years and it's always just been a current limiter for the entire strip. Perhaps it has something to do with OP using COB lights as I've only ever used it for standard strip lights like 5050 WS2812B or 5050 WS2815.
It's near the current limiter setting, it's in 0.14.0-0.14.4 at least (Sample size two boards, one that needs updating). It's how wled estimates how much current each LED takes
