DAISEN Led Strip Light, 16.4FT(5M) SMD5050 Waterproof 300LEDs Flexible Color Changing RGB Flexible LED Light Strip Kit (Multicolor)

I bought these lights to put on the back of a bookshelf in my daughter's room. The idea was that the bounce light would produce a nice ambient night-light effect. I'm surprised by how bright the lowest-level of dimming is, I would want them to go much dimmer. Also, the color presets on the remote were clearly programmed by a color-blind chimpanzee. The "White" is really a blue-ish purple. I figured that I could just program a white color using their DIY section, but YOU CAN'T DIM IF YOU'RE IN A DIY MODE. I ended up using one of their "yellow" presets (which is really a greenish orange)Ultimately, I'm nit-picking. I picked these lights up for $15. If I had paid $10 for a set that didn't have the multi-color functions, and it had the yellow-green-orange preset light that I'm using, I'd be pretty happy. The ability to go to a custom color is a cool feature.

I'm on the fence about giving this item 4 stars -- if it continues to hold up, there are a few things about it that will make me knock it down to 3 if they turn into real issuesWhat I like:-Quick to setup-Very bright with great colors-uniform lighting-Can daisy chain multiple strips-Can be shortened easily-Low costWhat I don't like-The remote is not straight forward -- there are a lot of buttons, few with a clear definition of what they do (you can't just look at the remote and figure out)-The strip was sticky in some spots, not as well in others -- however, this could have been because of the surface I was mounting it to, so I did not deduct stars for this-The range for the receiver is very small, so it took a while for me to find the best spot for it.I did not test how water resistant these are as I'm using them in a very dry room indoors

Works great but needs a power button. Only way to turn off and on is with cheap remote that requires flat round batteries which aren’t always convenient to replace.

These lights are fun, unfortunately the connector gave out on me causing the remote to no longer function but Daisen has great customer service and they worked with me to resolve the issue.

Installed these under our mantle and put a small piece of molding in front of it so it did not reflect in the TV. We love the pure bright light.

Loved the LEDs but after 2 days the AC/DC adapter that comes with the package started malfunctioning and I can't control the lights. They just keep strobing or change randomly.

Great lighting system i places it outdoors

Amazing productIt sticks to anything very wellIt has a large number of different buttons and modes that im very satisfied with (DIY button is very good)Waterproof as mentionedCons: The power cable and adapter are too big and heavy
