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.
Wow!!!!!!! Took a little longer to install than expected. But I wanted to make sure they were secure for year round. After installing I'm blown away with the look they give off and the preset functions of the app. The whole neighborhood is amazed.
Easy to install and get going. They look amazing. I wish they sent more clips I used more than recommended mainly because of the metal soffit. There were some that landed to only get half the stick pad and used the extra clips for added support.
