LUMIMANSmart LED Strip Lights, WiFi 32.8ft Music Sync RGB Color Changing Rope Lights, Compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, Waterproof Tape Light for Bedroom Kitchen Living Room 12V

These lights are very bright and the color organ is amazing. I've played with color organs and other music lighting devices in the past and these have outdone everything I've made or used. You can adjust the speed of the color change and the mic sensitivity in music mode (which is surprisingly VERY accurate - I'd put it up against a direct 3.5mm aux input and it'd be able to go head to head with it no doubt). Since these just came out, the PlusMinus app doesn't have all the bells and whistles that I'm guessing they'll probably implement in the future, but for being a new product, they have released a lot of really cool features (I'm hoping for brightness and color settings for music mode). They work in music mode, a timed mode, a static mode, and possibly others (I mainly use music and static - forget what they're called in the app though). App is very easy to use and the color wheel in the app makes it so you can get the exact color you want (from my limited testing of the remote, the app is a bit more accurate but I may be using the remote wrong). Installation was tough but that's because they're high up on my wall (are strip light installations ever easy? lol), I ended up using some tape and screw in hangers (definitely recommend if you're hanging up high or on a porous surface like a painted wall as adhesives never work very well no matter how strong) but double sided tape and sticky hangers were included.They have these made so you can install them any way you can think of and you won't make a wiring mistake. They have a 4 prong female connector on the lights and module outputs that are all the same, and they provide you with small 4 pin (male) connectors to connect everything together. I recommend taping these so they don't come disconnected by accident. If you've ever accidentally installed strip or rope lights backwards before, you know why this is genius. Just make sure to align the arrows (they need to point right at eachother)You can install these back to back, or in a Y formation from the module. Which is really cool and useful.If you're installing up high, you might need an extension cord. You have about 6' from light to outlet.Packaging was very nice, felt like I was opening a high end electronic module inside (if you've ever played with Arduino or Raspberry Pi)Overall I'm shocked how good these are for the price, they're worth double what I paid for them in my opinion. Watch out Phillips, Lumiman is going to win over all your customers if they keep making very good products at a tenth of the cost (I have multiple Lumiman devices and they're all top notch)The remote is cool too but I haven't really played with that much, I've just used the app and Google's Assistant.Works with Google Home on/off/change color/brightness commands but I haven't tested anything more than that yet.All in all, these are the best strip lights I've ever bought, and somehow the least expensive. I have zero complaints, they're great. Definitely make sure you have tape for the connectors though, and if not sticking to a smooth surface, no adhesive is going to work so get hangers (I have very strong double sided tape that didn't work, in addition to 4 different types of adhesive, so it's not a problem with the product, it's just how things work)

These LED strip lights are exactly what I was looking for to provide some under cabinet/kitchen counter lighting. They are bright, you can control the brightness and color, they can be controlled with both IR remote and smart home assistant (google/alexa), and as an added bonus have a microphone that will pulse at different intervals to the beat of any music - a feature my kids love! It's essentially two strips of LED lights, a few connectors to daisy-chain them together, the remote, and a small control/mic module. Also, the LED strip itself is covered in adhesive tape on the back and they provide three little bags of clips and additional 3M foam tape to mount wires.The only issues with this product would be the connections to join the strips - it's a small set of these little 4 prong pins you need to insert and join together. They do not snap together and it feels as if a gentle tug would separate them again. The LEDs themselves get plenty bright and show off a range of color - however when set to white, it's more of a light blue tint or a very cool temperature white at best. Wish there was just a standard warm light - I could mess with their yellow setting, I suppose. And last would be the adhesive itself. It's not overly sticky. I have half of it coming down and will need to purchase some mounts or get a staple gun and affix the strip and accompanying wires to my cabinets in order to keep things up. It sounds like a lot of little issues adding up but really in the grand scheme, it's all minor nit-picky stuff.Overall, I would give the LUMIMAN LED strip lights a solid 4/5. They perform exactly as advertised, look great in our kitchen, are a ton of fun with the added music functionality, and I'll probably get around to purchasing another set for my daughter's room. Hope this helps!Disclaimer: LUMIMAN did provide us this set free for testing purposes (thanks LUMIMAN!) for a fair and honest review

Pros: Bright Music Function Strip is cuttable to size and is in two 16 feet sections. Alexa and Google Home controllableCons: Not RGBIC Adhesive for strips is lacklusterSo a lot of people are going to do a comparison of this set of LED strips vs the GoVee LED strips. I have both of them. Both have features that are better than the others but It will ultimately come down to whether those features are more important to you. For example, GoVee has individual segments for color, whereas the LUMIMAN is only one color at a time for the whole strip. On the other hand, LUMIMAN's implementation uses Wi-Fi with Alexa, Google Home compatibility so you don't have to press a button or open an app to control it. Also, I think the music side of LUMIMAN's option is better and following the beat, but both do an okay job at it. The biggest difference for me is that you can cut the LUMIMAN strips down to size and the strips are in two 16 feet runs; instead of the one long 32 feet run for GoVee.

The light strip stopped working very quickly. The adhesive was not very sticky. When I asked for a replacement I was ignored. I still like the lightbulbs and the app is ok but the light strip is a fail.

I like how bright these led strips are. Easy to put together and not flimsy. You can daisy chain the two long light strips together. The remote responds as expected and has no issue communicating with controller. The lights are also dimmable to my desired brightness. You can also set the mode to cycle between colors or my preferred option of fading in and out between different colors. I like that it can integrate with Amazon Alexa.

Was a great light strip, but stopped working all of a sudden after 11 months.
