ALITOVE WS2811 12V Addressable RGB LED Strip Light 16.4ft 150 LEDs Dream Color Programmable Digital LED Flexible Pixel Lights Waterproof IP65 with 3M VHB Heavy Duty Self-Adhesive Back for DIY Project

Bought 10 of these (50 meters total) to add to my Christmas pixel display using 12V controllers (Falcon and Baldrick). Works flawlessly after wiring up XConnect connectors. These are going to be amazing for lining driveway edges, sidewalks, roofline, etc. Connecting 2 5M strips together on a single port is a thing of beauty. 10 meters of uninterrupted light that looks like a laser beam. Zero hot spots. Look like neon. I've got some great props and a lot of lights in my display, but I have a feeling these long runs of laser beams are going to be a highlight. There is a tradeoff, however. Because there are 6 lights per node you can't be super precise (think window corners, etc.) but for long runs of awesome lights, these are spectacular. Also, the color order on these is not RGB like standard bullet or seed pixels (the ones I received are BRG), so if you use Xlights you'll have to manually change the color order every time you move these around your show (to a different port, controller, etc.). These are cuttable, but there's no way to be precise as you can't see individual lights and there is light bleed from one node to another, so no clearly defined line from one node to the next. If you manually adjust the node count by 1 in XLights you'll get an idea of where you can safely cut (use tape to mark the before/after). These are well worth it in my book! I'm a big fan.

Works well. Simplistic. Like that!

I've been waiting for the price of addressable LED strip lights (Dreamcolor) to become affordable. When I first started looking, all I could find was strips that were priced over $50 and still needed a power supply and controller added. Those could easily double the price.The cheap kits, I discovered, could not be cut to length, something that's important to me. This one allowed me to cut the strip every 3 beads, which is clearly marked. That's good enough for my use and a lot less expensive.So, when I saw this kit which included the power supply plus a Bluetooth controller at a decent price, I jumped on it.The big difference between a strip light like this and the older ones is that the old style LED strips can change color but the entire strip can only be one color at a time. It's not even possible to turn each bead on and off separately, so you could have a chase light or marquee type effect.This one gives you a lot more control. There are actually 3 different ways to do it. You can select from a variety of patterns by pushing the buttons on the controller itself. You can use the RF remote control to do the same (note that you don't have to point the remote control at the controller, which can be hidden behind something or inside a cabinet. The 3rd way is by downloading an app from Google Play or the iPhone app store and linking by Bluetooth.One thing to note about the app is that the description photos look like the app allows you to adjust the color of each led bead individually. The manual even shows that function. I couldn't find it anywhere in the Android app I was instructed to download. There also is no obvious way to program the presets in the app or the remote. Maybe the iPhone app can do this but not the app I have on Android.For me, the app is not a deal breaker. Eventually, I'll get a better controller or maybe the vendor will send me one (hint-hint).As things are right now, I'm happy with the kit. It is more than bright enough. The power supply doesn't overheat. The adhesive on the back of the strip is the 3m high adhesion kind. And, the presets in the remote look pretty cool, plus there's an automatic mode which alternates them.One other thing is that the manual talks about a music mode that uses a microphone in the controller to sync the lights with the music. I couldn't figure out how to access it, but that's not what I bought this for so I admit I didn't put any time into searching for it.
