Works for me although functionality is fairly limited

Was looking for a Tuya based CCT controller and found this. Just plug it in, the light started flashing, then opened the Tuya Smart Life app and selected the light strips (wifi) under the lights and set it all up by itself. expensive (a box of 4 smart bulbs costs the same) but lately I don't feel like breaking microcontrollers and tweaking a buck converter to get 5V from 24V so I just bought this. x2.1mm) for power input. The output is a terminal block. Supplied with a small amount of 3m glue and 2 mounting screws. There's also a tiny screwdriver, probably mainly for terminal blocks, but it will also fit a mounting screw. Update November 26th: I recently received a few questions about this controller and did some research on the color functionality. It looks like the Tuya app only lets you shoot in white or color mode at the same time, which makes no sense. The whole point of the RGBWW strip is the additional control over color saturation with white LEDs. white LEDs at the same time. This is a pretty severe limitation to only turning on the colored LEDs or only the white LEDs at a time, which is why I'm deducting two stars. If the manufacturer sees this, they should ask Tuya to do something about it. However, if you only use this for the color bar or just the white bar, it should work fine.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
