Review on ๐ŸŒˆ Elvissmart 300 LED Strip Lights-32 ft RGB Colored Rope Kit for Room, Ceiling, Bedroom, Cupboard - Bright 5050 Lighting with Remote Control (2X5m) by Chris Lentz

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Slightly overpriced for better lighting and ceiling fans

For a fairly standard pair of 16ft 5050 LED strips this is way overpriced. Keep in mind that they do NOT come with a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth controller, just a regular IR controller that requires you to use the remote control. They are also NOT addressed individually. Any of them could justify the price to me, but for some really basic functions, these lights come at a pretty steep price. It's also worth noting that the pictures show that they have two different LED tuops. In one picture it looks like some sort of rectangular LED, not a square 5050. In the next picture they look like white LEDs with that little yellowish thing that makes them really white. The first picture also says 5V, at least that's what it looks like to me, the next one says 12V. Very similar to some copied stock photos, intended for people who aren't really into LED strips and don't want to shop. From the "ULTRA LONGโ€ list: two light strips 5 m long. Long enough to cover the entire room and illuminate the entire room. Easy to decorate large spaces such as bedroom, ceiling, kitchen, etc. The two strips together are about 32 feet. Long enough to cover the whole room?!? If your room is 8x8, then yes, hardly. More than that, and definitely not. Is it easy to decorate large spaces? If a 64-square-foot room is big for you, then yes. For most rooms in houses or apartments. no Really good lighting, but the price is too high. If you can read this, keep shopping!

Pros
  • a good thing
Cons
  • almost never
