Review on 39.3ft WiFi Connect Waterproof Smart RGB LED Strip Lights by Arzerlize - Music Sync Color Changing Rope Tape Lights for Bedroom, Party, Indoor, Outdoor - APP Control with Remote by Wendy Parks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reasonable price for 2 16ft blocks and the ability to put everything to good use

There are many benefits to this simple product. Not only is the price reasonable, but it also connects well to your smart home when using the Smart Life app on other devices (which is common for many Chinese smart devices and brands). They have an important selling point as they are 1) much more affordable than solutions like Philips Hue and 2) Smart Life can be integrated with other settings/solutions using things like Alexa, Google Assistant or IFTTT. Which ultimately makes this a fantastic product! You will receive (as mentioned) two 16 foot (16.4) spools. This includes a power adapter with AC plug, a Y-cable for dual coil splitting, a dual tape coil (optional) and a remote control. The module that sits between the connector and the Y-cable is your remote controlled IR receiver and the brain that makes everything smart (Wi-Fi inside). The length of each one can be adjusted by cutting the segments to the desired length (if they are longer than you'd like). Excess LED strips can be set aside and reused with other RGB strip kits of the same type (these can be regular or smart as the strip itself is a regular RGB strip) with appropriate adapters. So don't throw too much in the trash. In fact, if you have experience with LED strips, it is not difficult and quickly assembled. The only extra step is to download the app and add the module to Smart Life app after activation. You can then interact with other devices or set up scenes. For example, if you have this installed on your kitchen cabinets and the main kitchen lights are also connected to a smart switch that works with Smart Life, IFTTT, Alexa or Google Assistant, the light switch can be set to turn on both light bulbs it is connected to , as well as the LED strip. Obviously there are so many things you can do. Double tape seems to work well, although it doesn't work in all situations. You need a smooth, flat and non-porous surface to stick it to. If you're installing this on a different surface, you may need to find a clever way to mount it. Luckily, this works in most situations (e.g. under the counter, under cabinets, on the back of a table, etc.). Connecting to the app seems to work very well, and deleting it works too if you specify it correctly. on the receiver attached to the module (white). The only thing to watch out for is the soldering points inside the LED strip where you would cut them to adjust the length. They can take so much abuse (the uncut part still intact inside). If you crease these tape dots, or stretch the tape too much by placing tape around the intended area, you may lose connection with the rest of the tape, or colors may change on the rest of the tape if some of the solder dots are misaligned. Contact (each point represents a color in RGB). So remember those moments in the feed. The music function is more like a strobe effect with three different styles on the remote or app. There aren't many differences between the three options, and we didn't quite like it. If you have someone with sensitive eyes, it probably bothers them. All other modes are good and you have a full color wheel in the app to slide through. We ended up really liking them and I wish Revain had the ability to upload pictures as seeing them in action really does the product justice. ** If you found our review helpful, please rate it below so we know.
