Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The lights are controlled using a raspberry pi 3 with a simple program called led control. They're super easy to solder with a clean tip and a decent high flux solder without any extra preparation to the pads. The strips are very easy to cut to length...  Read More

The strip operates best at 5v, but will operate at lower voltage. The first pixel is dim as a result, but it's sending a signal to the rest of them at 4. V. I have a setup with 335 leds all powered using one 300w psu.

The led strip itself seems well built. Nerveless, when multiplied by the number of leds the current is very significant. Otherwise, the gradual shift from white towards yellow was observed.



Cons

Out of the last 10 i ordered 5 were either defective or the wrong item was sent! The strip's power wiring isn't high enough gauge for the power/length/resistance of the strips. There was no input connector and only 107 leds.

Yes the price is a bit higher than the knockoff ones but youre paying for reliability

Shipping


Definitely recommend these lights their customer support is incredible and they get to you so fast if you have any problems

Setup with wled running on an esp8266 was as easy as custom lighting gets


Originalwhen i went to remove the lightstrip from the bag i noticed that it was not fully wrapped around the spool

I paired these led lights with a esp32 board and they were very easy to control with an infinite amount of patterns and colors


Using these with esp8266 controller running wled


Short story i purchased a white ip67 strip and upon opening it i discovered the silicone is cracked between every single led on the strip

    Apologies to the store owner for the original 3 star i gave

    If you want rainbows or fun colors then just grab an esp32 board a 5v 20a power supply a resistor and learn to wire possibly solder


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Unfortunately i’m brand new to diy light stuff and burned out the whole strip had it all working and was excited to show it off to my partner when she got home
