These lights transform your home experience. Wonderful quality and easy application. We bought about 300 ft to do our decks and entire home, and it added so much to our home. The options for lighting are limitless and the app makes it easy to use. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to take their house up a notch or 2!

These lights look great,

Having these lights on our house is so much fun. We have really enjoyed having them for the past three weeks. There was not any presets for American Independence Day but using the app I was easily able to create a great-looking red, white, and blue scrolling scheme. Now that the holiday is over, I have set my lights to display a pale yellow to accent my home. My neighbors have commented on how much they enjoy seeing them. I am looking forward to Halloween and using some of the preset schemes.
The installation of the lights was tricky mostly because the eaves of my house are high so there was a lot of up and down the ladder. My process I would first spray down the eave with rubbing alcohol and then wipe it down with a rag. Then I took my 2' level which was 2"wide and held it up against my siding and I drew a straight line where I wanted the lights making sure to only draw it in the area I had already cleaned. I found it much easier to install the clips and then go back and attach the 2-sided tape. I would usually do about 4 lights for every clip. Having the pencil line was also very helpful to keep the lights straight. I saw some videos online of other installs and the lights were not straight and I wanted to make sure that mine were.
If there was anything I found lacking, it was the supplied clips. I like that they are mounted with 2-sided tape and a screw, but the screw was very small and difficult to work with over my head and on a ladder. I ended up purchasing some other cable clips that had a larger screw and the install was much easier. Also, if you have a lot of ups, downs, and turns you will probably need more clips than what is included.
In conclusion, the install was done in about 8 hours total over two Saturday mornings. The lights look great, and we are really enjoying them. I am now looking at other products from Govee to see what else I want to use.

Avoid this purchase!

Installed these outdoor “permanent"lights and they worked great for 2 months. After that they flickered randomly (not part of any setting or pattern). After contacting Govee to help with the issue they would not help unless I had a receipt (this was a gift and I am unable to get the receipt). I usually like Govee products, but I would consider other offerings.

Do not buy

Got these lights as a gift. At first they were great, however after about 2 months of operation then began to turn off and flickers randomly (not part of any pattern or intended setting). So I reached out to Govee and they would not help me out unless I could provide a recipe from a gift… which I do not have. I usually like Govee products, but this one is a no go.
