They look great. Installed them 3" from the wall for a sculpted look on the facia. Only thing to note is the sticky tape should not be considered a permanent solution even if they say it is :-) Mine came with screw in brackets in addition so I installed them permanently.
No need for the Pro model unless you need to cut and splice the light strings. I didn't so went with the cheaper Outdoor '2' version. This came with multiple extensions to use between strings if needed.
I bought this item checked it before installation and then after installation I’m having segments and individual lights that aren’t working. I followed the directions on the Govee app to no avail.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

With how expensive these lights are you would think they could put in some decent hardware. I am sure the margins Govee makes is well over 100% on these lights but they cheap out in the hardware making installation a pain. Do yourself a favor and throw out the screws and anchors that come in the box and go buy some self tapping #6 1/2inch screws to make installation easier. Once installed the light work and look great but there is a pretty big learning curve on the app as well. I hope these last 10+ years because I am not looking forward to getting up on my ladder any time soon.

Verified Purchase:Yes
We recently purchased the GOVEE outdoor roof lights, and just like every other GOVEE product we own, they did not disappoint. We already have multiple GOVEE string lights set up in our backyard, as well as their backlighting for our TV, and we've been consistently impressed with the quality, ease of use, and customization features.
The roof lights were the next natural upgrade for our outdoor setup, and they really elevated the look of our home. Installation was straightforward, the app controls are user-friendly, and the lighting effects are vibrant and dynamic — perfect for any season or occasion.
GOVEE has truly become our go-to brand for smart lighting, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything ties together seamlessly. Highly recommend their products if you're looking for reliable, high-quality lighting solutions.
My wife had been wanting these for sometime. They are the perfect gift. That will keep giving!! Govee included all that I needed to install. I was able to get them up in one day and surprised my wife when she came home for work. The lights are nice and so many options to customize. Very pleased overall: from ordering, fast delivery, everything included with the purchase, one day install, easy to use the app, the finished project and best of all the look on my wife’s face. Would highly recommend. We have spent $$$$ on outdoor lights in the past that we have to put up in the fall and take down spring. Wish the Govee lights would have been available years ago. It would have saved us so much time and money.
