Review on πŸ“² ALITOVE WiFi LED Controller SP108E: iOS Android App Wireless Remote Control for WS2812B SK6812 WS2813 RGB LED Pixels by Gerard Hudson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very dissatisfied with the performance of the device. I had to apply voltage to the 5V wire just to power it.

I bought 3 ALITOVE products together: 3.2ft (144 LEDs - only the first 120 worked), 5V power supply and this controller. To my alarming discovery, I couldn't even find the controller in the app when everything was on. That's when I realized that just plugging in the power wasn't enough; I had to get the cable in the right position to allow the controller to even run off a 5V power supply. Attached is a picture of what I would need to do if I wanted to use my LEDs at all. If I moved the cable a millimeter in any direction, the LEDs wouldn't even get a signal. I've been waiting to write this review because I've been getting by with it so far - it was all hidden behind my monitors and I never intended to move them. However, now my LEDs don't work at all - I can connect to "SP105E" in the app and edit the controls, but the light stops working.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Empty
