Govee Outdoor LED Strip Lights, 98.4ft Smart Outdoor Lights Work with Alexa and Google Assistant, App Control, IP65 Waterproof, RGBIC Lights for Patio, Eave, Party Decorations

love our govee lights. We have some for outdoor and love that I can keep them up all year and change the lights as I please with just a push of a button from my phone app. It was super easy to install, looks classy, the adhesive has been strong enough to endure NM heat and sand storms. One thing to watch out for is that the rolls are to be installed in a certain order, we didn’t not realize this and installed out of order so when changing the lights we have to be mindful of that.

These outdoor LED strip lights have truly transformed my patio space. Installation was a breeze, thanks to the included adhesive backing that sticks easily to surfaces. The strip is long enough to cover a large area, and I love that it is weather-resistant, ensuring that I can leave it outside without worrying about rain or snow. The RGBIC feature is fantastic because it allows the lights to display multiple colors at once, creating stunning effects that are perfect for gatherings or even relaxing evenings. I appreciate the app control functionality, which makes it simple to adjust the colors, brightness, and settings from my phone. Integration with Alexa and Google Assistant is seamless, and voice control is an added convenience. These lights are incredibly bright, which enhances the ambiance of the space, making it feel cozy yet lively. The ability to schedule the lights to turn on and off at specific times has been useful in managing energy consumption. The versatility of these lights makes them perfect for not only patios but also for eaves, decks, or any outdoor space you want to brighten up. The quality of the strip is high, with durable materials that have held up well to exposure. If you're looking for an easy-to-use, customizable outdoor lighting solution, this is a fantastic option. The only downside is that you may need to have a power outlet nearby, but that’s a minor consideration given how easy the setup is. I’ve received countless compliments on the vibrant colors and the overall aesthetic these lights add to my outdoor area.

PROS: Installation wasn't particularly difficult, these strips cannot but cut, but you can find extension cables on Amazon to run in between the strips (this set includes 3 strips). As this isn't the Pro version we were concerned these wouldn't be very bright.......we were wrong...VERY wrong. Theses lights are bright, with the strip facing forward these light up the cul-de-sac we live in. We really like the different effects in the Govee App, we also added Govee bulbs to the light fixtures in the front porch and synced those with this strip, it's soo cool! The Govee App is awesome, you can also control these from a desktop app on your PC.Cons: Govee is addictive.It starts with a strip on the roof of your house, and then some bulbs for some fixtures, and soon enough you have strips in your windows, the downward spots under your eaves, spot lights in your yard, and those really cool curtain lights.....

These are a lot of light for the money , they're not very easily bent to turn corners but can be done. One downside I'll say is you really need a defuser for these lights in my opinion because you can see each individual bulb and it's just too much. Extremely easy to connect and use, You cannot beat govee lights!

The media could not be loaded. I was so sick of climbing up on the roof each Christmas, unrolling the tangled mess of icicle lights and plugging them into messy extension cords. Each year there was always the nagging letters from HOA asking to take down the lights again just a day after New Years. I also wanted to have lighting for all occasions like Halloween, Christmas, New Years or Valentine’s Day. I did my research, compared features and pricing - these lights are exactly what I needed. I control everything from my Govee app, along with the dozens of other Govee lights, plugs sensors and buttons I have. I can time them to come on and off each night, change scenes with the click of a button. I will say that good planning is absolutely necessary for the installation. Make sure to measure everything twice. When installing the lights, find the roll of lights that doesn’t have a connection on one end - that’s the end roll. I started my installation from the end of my run and worked my way back to the outlet I installed under the eaves - one on the west side and one on the east side. I cleaned the eaves with a cloth and rubbing alcohol to prep for the adhesive backing - however more is needed to keep them on long term. I was installing over 200 ft of rope lights on my house, so I wasn’t about to screw in hundreds of plastic clips. Instead used the battery powered Milwaukee cable stapler which made the job a breeze and didn’t damage the strips (it’s designed for stapling electrical wire). About 3 hours work to install it all. While the transformer and button say rated for wet outdoor environments, the elements will still shorten their lifespan, so I installed them inside a plastic water tight junction box and used silicone to seal up the hole for wires. Check out the video for the results - I’m impressed and it’s totally worth it.
