Tv Led Backlight, Maylit 8.2ft Led Strip Lights for 40-60in Tv, USB Powered Tv Lights kit with Remote, RGB Bias Lighting for Room Decor

I used these lights for the back of my tv and it was perfect! i love it all lit and the length was great. Make sure you know how big your tv is before u buy. The colors are vibrant and i love how it comes with a remote for easy access to change the colors!

The light is so bright I love it. The colors are so vibrant. Super affordable and works amazing for the price. Easy to install too and it’s app controlled.

Let me start this review by saying that I'm not really going to discuss the technical merits of these lights because...well, they work. They turn on and off with the TV (if we so choose), and they turn on and off with the remote. There are lots of fun "effects," but we tend to leave it on the "gently changing color mode" (so it won't distract us from Moonshiners, or Gold Rush or Curse of Oak Island.) Our TV is 65", so I needed an additional strand of lights, but we love the way it lights up only what we want (and ignores the pesky cables running down the middle.)Anyway, back to the review: Since "everyone knows" pictures speak volumes, I asked hubby to snap 1 or 2 that show the effect of the lights around the TV...and he sent me 30. I'm not kidding...he became a regular cinematographer in there, even going so far as to VIDEO the lights (so you can see them change!) That's just how much he loves these silly things. Call it Christmas for the other 11 months, but they are a super fun (and cheap) investment that will bring you hours of good clean fun. Really.Oh, and the customer service people are delightful and responsive. I had a question for them and they responded by email within a day. What that means is...there's actually someone on the other end of this product!In terms of brightness, the photos are unretouched, meaning the brightness is what you get when the lights are out and the TV is on. They aren't so bright that they compete with the television picture for your attention, but they add a very nice glow that kicks viewing up a notch.The remote requires a traditional 2032 round battery and is super easy to access/change (not that we've had to change it yet, but we inspected the remote so we'd know what we'd need to do when the time comes!)In terms of application...it's a no-brainer. You just peel and stick. Done. If you make a mistake, you can reposition (as long as you don't wait too long) and the adhesive won't ruin your television. Of course, these stick to the back, so does it really matter?The picture in the product description doesn't do these justice...I'll just say that. You really can't go wrong on them, so just buy a set (or two) and light up your world.

What I DON’T like:It came with corner connectors so you can cut it on the dotted lines where needed and add corners, but the directions said not to cut it. I believe it said “NEVER cut.” Soooo we ended up with funky corners (pictured). I would have cut it and used the connectors it came with, but the directions said not to and I didn’t want to ruin it and be out the money for it. It’s also not as bright as I’d like. In these pictures (one with the overhead light off, one with the overhead light on), the brightness is all the way up. That’s as bright as it gets. The brightness is very underwhelming, but the color covers enough space I guess. It barely covers outside the perimeter of the TV, but it works. With the LED lights around the walls, these are almost unnoticeable. It was also hard to install without cutting, because I had to figure out how to get it all the way around without blocking the HDMI ports. I ended up just doing three sides of the TV instead, because I couldn’t even use the corner connectors to make some corners to go around the HDMI ports. Instructions were also very lazy and unclear. There’s pictures, but virtually no words. It does, however, list the warnings…. Like don’t cut the lights.What I DO like:It is very sticky. I unstuck and restuck several times during installation and it still stuck great. I like that it changes colors, you can pick the colors, and the remote seems to work very well. MAKE SURE you leave the receptor hanging towards the bottom though, because the remote does not work unless it is pointing directly at the receptor. If you have the receptor behind the TV, it will not work.For my seven-year-old’s room, it works. He’s thrilled to have it. But if it were for my room, I’d go with a different brand honestly. I like them, but there are way more cons than I’d like.
