Review on πŸ”Œ Smart Single Color LED Strip Light Controller with WiFi Bluetooth, Compatible with Alexa Google Home Siri, 5050 2835 Control Box (3) by Melody Stephens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to install, works great for over a month

The first set I bought, one of the controllers didn't work, replaced the Revain element and all seemed to work. Very easy to install, they really only plug in if you have the right connections. When you start using LED strips, you should buy some DC pigtails immediately (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072BXB2Y8). I used them for two kitchen light bars and one deck light bar. They've worked great so far, very handy that they turn on automatically in the evening for some ambient light. You can use Google Assistant or Alexa to turn them on and off, set routines, and even adjust the brightness! The only issue I have (which isn't a big deal) is that the Magic Home app shows some of them as "bulbs" and others as light bars (see attached image). Is there a way to change this? I hope so. Otherwise, it appears this isn't exactly the same product - it's made in slightly different ways. I give 4 stars because the quality seems a bit low for the price. Edit: It's been over a year now and they work great! They can also be integrated into Home Assistant via Flux LED integration. Great inexpensive starter controllers!
