100% quality assurance? nope

Good for now. The LEDs are bright and feel quite cool. And that's it. Poorly? First off, any regular RGBW ribbon has the following pinout: Voltage (5V or 12V) Green Red Blue White (if applicable) None in my kit. Red and green have been swapped, so when I press red on the controller, green activates and vice versa. I've attached an image of the problem. However, they do not work properly right out of the box. Second, a true white LED (not combining RGB to produce white) has a slight lavender tint. The combination of RGB to white has a slightly bluish-green hue. If you turn on a white LED along with an RGB combination to create white, you get a combination of teal and lavender. Nothing remotely reminiscent of white. Finally, the last connector that you can attach additional strips to has white heat shrink tubing covering the female W connector. I could trim off the excess heat shrink tubing to make it work, but the packaging clearly says "100% Quality Guarantee". and that's definitely not the right thing. I won't even bother with a replacement, this one will be right back.

Pros
  • Sturdy design
Cons
  • I have no particular complaints about it, everything is fine
