LED Strip Lights

I've used quite a number of LED light strings for lighting projects but none came close to how evenly lit this string does. The glow is very even with minimal "hot spots". The wiring is straightforward, and as the listing describes, it does NOT come with it's own power driver/supply or dimmer. As my video shows, it responds to a proper LED driver dimmer very well. The string is trimmable and the aluminum clip mounts work well. There were multiple color/temperature options available. I chose the warm 3000K. Great lighting strip to finish my bar project.

PROS: * It's only 16.99 * Warm light CONS: * You need to purchase your own LED driver * 9.8 feet wasn't long enough for the 4-letter cursive design I wanted to create, so I turned to analyzing the feasibility of cutting segments to make 4 printed letters * It's cuttable every .98", but there's no way to connect the current except to buy & add another LED driver for every cut ($15 to $30 each) & sheath any exposed wiring * Every connection needs to be waterproofed * Scope creep - the installation time and required purchases keep going up * The LED driver sticks out in cabinets and built-ins; the more cuts you make, the more drivers to stash. My design would have had 8 to 12 cuts, that's 8 to 12 drivers in a 3-foot area. On a wall, that's a lot of drywall cuts and a lot of gear behind the wall. Or to store behind a cabinet or wood built-in, there's no easy way to access them for maintenance or troubleshooting. * The product says you can't light the whole roll for more than 10 seconds during testing, or it will fry it. Why would basic testing risk a short circuit? I wasn't brave enough to attach my multimeter to test, and I wouldn't trust the product to put it to use. CONCLUSION: Not a useful way to sell neon rope lighting. It makes more sense to just purchase rope lighting that just plugs into an outlet, is USB rechargeable, or runs on batteries. Anything but this mess of LED drivers. It fails on value for money, quality, and connectivity with all the required purchases of LED drivers. And not being able to test for more than 10 seconds is a wire quality fail.

This LED neon rope light comes with mounting holders and hardware , but info there is no manual or installation guide included. It has single color with 3 brightness level , but no remote . It has a loose exposed wire , so might only be usable as an extension piece for other led setup . I will need a handyman to figure out .

This LED strip puts out a smooth warm white tone that looks more expensive than it is. The silicone casing feels thick and flexible, so it bends easily around corners without kinking. It gives off an even glow with no visible hotspots, which is the whole point of a neon-style strip. Just remember it doesn’t come with a power supply, so you’ll need to pair it with a 12V adapter. Once connected, the light output is steady and looks great behind mirrors, cabinets, or anywhere you want subtle accent lighting.

While I have yet to actually plug this in (as the power adapter that I had is not compatible), i am already very impressed with the quality and sickness of these strip lights. For starters, the strips themselves are much thicker than other comparable options, and are not flimsy or weak. The downside to this is that they may not attach to corners as well as similar products. However I believe the minimal design of this product definitely makes up for that, as there are no visible, messy edges or rough parts. Whether the light is on or off, i believe these will look very clean. Overall i'm fairly impressed, and we'll update this review if I can find an adapter that works with the power supply connection.

Listing says power supply not included but box says plug included which wasn’t entirely true. Aside from that the light does work great. Bright light and great length for those extra long hard to reach corners. Curable, flexible and waterproof.

These seem like they would be awesome. Must be hardwired to work. No plug in cord piece with this item. It would be awesome if it had the plug to just plug it into a socket and light it up. Little disappointed that it doesn't have the plug, but I will figure it out to be able to use this at some point.

Product is as described- you will need to hardwire this, and it's super easy to do with a port (which is not included) if you dont want to hardwire it into a wall.
