Review on ALITOVE WS2815 LED Strip Light 12V WS2813 WS2812B Individually Addressable RGB LED Pixel Strip 16.4Ft 300 LEDs Programmable Digital LED Light Non-Waterproof White PCB For Decor Lighting Project by Luis Despain

Good quality, but no help manual included

Professional lighting technician here. I bought these for a simple lighting effects installation for my TV. They work just as advertised, fairly bright and good construction.It's worth noting this product doesn't come with any documentation or adhesive backing. I found the silicon waterproofing does not stick to adhesives well, but it was very easily removed. The contacts are also very easy to solder unlike other cheap LED strips. The backup data line is.a nice touch for pernanent installs.Also worth noting that these are not RGB, but rather GRB diodes. If you are installing them with professional lighting control this can mess up your colors if not corrected with programming.Overall it's a good product, but I wouldn't recommend it if you don't know exactly how these LEDs work. There was nothing in the line of required accessories or help manuals included. Just the LED strip with leads on either end.

Pros
  • Great color and super easy to use. Works great and tough. 12V is definitely worth the extra $$
Cons
  • Can be difficult to program for those with no experience
