Review on 🌈 Govee LED Strip Lights 16.4ft - Waterproof RGB Color Changing Light Strips with Remote Control for Room, Bedroom, Kitchen, Yard, Party, Ceiling, Christmas by Moises Dzihic

I give 5 stars because it works well and if I read the description I would buy something else better suited to my needs, the product can't be beat, fault was mine. Obviously it's intended for use outdoors or in places where it can get wet. Not sure how waterproof it is, but it has a really thick silicone coating. This is where I encountered problems. I bought it to trim and use as extra lighting around the house. Also, I didn't realize the kit didn't come with any connectors at all, so I had to order them separately, which added another day to a project that should have only taken a few hours. Again, my fault for not reading the description to the end. So I bought connectors and quickly realized that due to the thick layer of silicone this strip would not work with any L-shaped connector, at least none. what i could find. I ended up having to remove the silicone near the contact points so I could use the "L" connectors. Also worth mentioning and maybe that was obvious and just another point I missed. These are two separate bars connected to a controller. I assumed/thought that the strips would be separate and have a separate controller. After the tedious process of peeling off the silicone and pushing the strip into the connectors, I have a project that will light up my closet that didn't have a light. In short, if you're buying them to cut and hang on the back of your TV, for example, you'll need something else, because using connectors with this strip requires a certain determination that's just not worth it. in my opinion. On the plus side, it looks cool and the glue seems to stick well. Although one side of the strip is a different color than the rest of the strip it's attached to (one strip glows red on a purple background), I suspect this is an issue with the connector I'm using and not the one Strip yourself because it was all the same color before I cut it off. So I can't use all the colors, but I found a combination I can live with. Something like GTA Vice City lol
