200 ft took me about 3 hours to put up, and another 3 hours to clean up, conceal wires, install adhesive clips, etc...
I would suggest not installing the wire support clips until you have run the show for a few days. You may want to adjust the position of the lights, and this will help woth that. Also, you can cut the wires, and make short extensions no problem. This is useful for small jumps in the eaves if the roof line changes to gBle end or something. I just drilled a hole in the eave, and tucked my extension connections into the eave to keep it dry and weatherproof. Then come back with cauking and seal the hole.
I am very happy with the lights. I wish they came with more clips to secure them, the tape doesn't work so well on the old wood where the lights were installed, but the the lights are great. The app is fine, and easy enough to use for pre-programmed setting, but is not very user friendly for making you own lighting design.
I've done exactly what the instructions say to do. Several of my lights have came off and I don't have enough wire clips to attach them back. Love the lights just wish the lights stuck on better.
The lights are great but the navigational portion of the app is less to be desired. Would like to see it dummied down a bit so one doesn't have to go to tech school to navigate. Would be nice to open it and choose a color(s) and pattern you'd like to see without the hassle. My wife and I still haven't figured it out the way we want it. We just got lucky by pushing buttons and left it where it landed.
The Merry Christmas or a Happy holiday, mine began when i put up my Govee Permanent outdoor lights pro. Everyday I change the scene and my neighbors have implied they haply look forward to the new scene each night. I'm looking forward to after the holiday's to learn how do to many things present in the app. to make things for all the holidays. Next year all i will have to do is flip a switch. Thank you
