HitLights LED Strip Lights, 16.4ft WiFi APP Control Smart LED Strip Lights, Music Sync 16 Million Colors RGB Tape Lights for Room Home Kitchen TV Party Halloween, Christmas

The first box that came, the remote didn't work and the lights wouldn't stop flashing green. Asked for a replacement and got it the next day. When I opened the box there was a major difference from the first, like, an instruction booklet, the inside was out htogether differently (correctly) than the first. The lights were also taped to the reel, which is want in the first. Truly believe I got a return as my first shipment but the second box worked! The lights are closer together then my other led lights so it's much brighter than the others. Can't tell in the pic though but I'm happy. You can also control it through an app but I haven't tried that yetEDIT** App doesn't work on 5g network. And after only one day, they don't work.

I do a lot of semi interesting things with electronics, but I've never used an LED light strip. Not sure why...anyway, I'm rebuilding an old arcade cabinet, and rather than simply use an 18 inch fluorescent tube to light up the marquis I decided to use these LED lights, as it offered a couple of advantages - not including any possible power savings. The first is space - I can use these in the marquis and still use the large space in the marquis for audio equipment and reach it easily without remove anything. The second advantage is the dimmer - depending on where the cabinet is placed (as in how bright the room is) and what type of marquis you need to illuminate, the dimmer is a big advantage.This dimmer switch seems solid enough and doesn't seem to introduce any noise to the audio or video. It has a nice knob that allows for discrete placement - you don't have to see it to use it - you just need to be able to touch it (so under the game controls it works fine, even though you can't see it).The lights appear visually correct for my needs in terms of color and the dimmer really lets me dial in the brightness so the marquis isn't over exposed.I've read another complaint that the driver power supply is always hot if you turn them off by the dimmer, but in my use case the dimmer isn't really used as an on/off switch, it's just a dimmer. I turn them off by cutting the master power to the cabinet. If I was installing these in my kitchen, for instance, they'd be connected to a wall switch/Sonoff combo for on/off and the dimmer switch would be for dimming only. And even leaving the driver power supply energized doesn't strike me as a huge problem, even in the odd circumstance where that might occur, so I wouldn't be too concerned about that issue.The packaging, instructions, accessories and online documentation really struck me as nice - not your average pile of random electronics in a padded envelope that looked like they had a rough transcontinental voyage. I don't know that all vendors provide that sort of experience, so I'm impressed by Hitlight - I imagine that would be my preferred choice should I order more of these. Speaking of ordering more...As I mentioned, I've not used LED light strips before, even though I've installed half of my house's lighting and wall switches and all of the networking, automation, and camera equipment. But after using these and seeing how well they work, honestly I'm sort of looking for an excuse to install some of these elsewhere along with some motion sensors.

These lights would not connect to wi-fi after many attempts, moving it closer to router, resetting router, and unplugging/replugging lights. The remote did not work as the battery was dead. I'm sending it back.

Great value! I have 4 separate sections of upper cabinet, each only 2 to 4 feet in width. All other LED strip lights I found come in long rolls that are fairly priced, but the transformers, plugs and connectors are exorbitantly high in price, especially when you multiply by 4. For $19.99 each, I paid $80 for all for sets of cabinets to have their own undercabinet light. This is an entire kit - no soldering or wire nuts needed - just cut the tape to length (on the orange markings - occurs every 3 lights, or about every 1.5 inch), stick it up where you want the light, and plug it in. It also comes with a dimmer switch that I put on my electrical scrap pile, along with the excess 14 feet of tape. Even with all this waste, this was way cheaper than buying 4 separate adaptors and plug sets. Also, because I planned ahead, I had already installed a light switch and individual plugs in each upper cabinet during the remodel, so that made install a lot easier. They stick quite well. Makes a nice warm,soft white glow, not too cool or bright. The strip is very thin, probably 1/4 inch which makes it easier to conceal and less conspicuous. The leftover tape has soldering nodes every 10 lights or so, which means you could in theory use it for later projects, but once again, you'd have to buy those expensive transformers and plug assemblies.A couple considerations that don't bother me, but might bother you:1. Every so often (approx. every 10 lights or so on the strip), you get a yellowish tint to a few of the LED nodes. Each of my under cabinets has at least 20 nodes shining down, and the strip itself is concealed by the cabinet carcass, so I don't mind - the yellow light just washes in with the other 19 lights and it makes a soft white light overall. But if you use this in an application where the strip will be visible, the occasional yellow tinted light might bother you.2. The overall light output is not as high as more expensive strips I have used in the past. To make a strong light, you will have to double back with the strip to adhere 2 strips side by side, doubling the output. I only put one strip under each cabinet. At night, with all other lights off, it makes a soft back glow on the backsplash, lighting up the kitchen enough that you can see everything and walk around safely, but not enough that you could do actual work on the countertops.

Lights, install and remote work great. Connecting to Alexa or using an app to setup WiFi is kind of a pain, but we did manage to get it set up. Adhesion sucks but is easily fixed by using 3m tape.
