Excellent lights

Did receive the lights and installed them, had a slight issue that once I received them they went on sale. Govee was very gracious in refunding me the amount in the difference. So far they have been very reasonable and easy to work with. No issues so far and would recommend them to anyone

Love the lights

Visited a friends home during the holidays and was very impressed with his new govee lights. The ability to control color and scenes from Alexa or your phone is fantastic. I appreciate that the light string itself is not visible from the street. I love the only put them up once but not look like the neighbor that never takes their Christmas lights down. The newest Pro series allows you to control each individual light and you can make them white for year round lighting for your home. Can't comment on longevity because i have just received my Govee lights but the quality feels good.

These lights (if installed by the directions )work great ..The app is a little difficult to use but I am older and not very computer savey..I love the effects and colors and wish that they could be a little bit brighter..Overall I am very happy with these lights and the app ..Great job Govee..
Tip: I sprayed contact adhesive to the soffit and the string lights and had no problem with them sticking..

Great outdoor lights

I was first looking at these last year when the original non-pro version was available. However, they were impossible to get and I didn't really like the white color. I'm glad I waited because not only does the pro version come in black, but they have dedicated white LEDs and each kit comes with 3 extensions (one 12 ft., two 4 ft.) and some very nice weatherproof splices if you need to cut/extend the lights.
We don't have a solid surface under the eaves , so I had to create something. I got some 2" furring strips and painted them and screwed them in under the eaves. That gave a nice straight surface for mounting the lights. We have sort of a complex roof line in the front, so the installation took about 5 days or so for everything (About ~200 ft. worth of lights) including painting/mounting the furring strips.
One important thing I will say about install is make sure you mount these about 2-3 inches from the wall! A lot of the people on Youtube that have videos installing/reviewing these lights install them way too far from the wall, closer to the gutter. This causes you to lose that curved glow that shines down the wall.
The 3M adhesive on each light is ok, but it needs reinforcement IMO. The lights come with some nice screw in clips, but they only come with about 30 of them per lighting kit. This is enough for 1 clip approximately every other light. Not a huge deal, but it would be nice if Govee included enough clips to have one on each side of each light to really secure them. I ended up using zip ties on the side of each light which actually worked even better in my scenario. I also mounted the power supplies/controllers in the garage and ran the cables up and out one of the soffits in the back.
Overall, I'm fairly impressed with everything and the Govee app has a lot of options if you really want to get creative and put time into it.
