> 3 dayThe LEDs can even be seen during the day altho not super bright you cant complain and at night they are easily visible from several hundred feet. Ours is a 12v version and works just fine and doesnt require insane amounts of power.

> 3 dayBe careful. The adhesive backing came off with the protective tape covering if you move too fast and make sure you are ready to place it. Once the adhesive touches the surface, even lightly, the adhesive will pull off from the light strip. Once on and wired, the lights are bright.

> 3 dayThese lights are pure junk like others have said. I had the lights wired into a junction box and off that junction box mater switch it powered a smaller rocker switch which turned on/off the leds. The lights worked fine for a day or two then just stopped working. When the junction box main switch is flipped the DC voltage was reading 13.2 V (voltage gauge is in box cluster panel) when the lights were turned on the voltage i believe dropped to 12.7V. So voltage /everything should not have been an issue . When the lights were working they were very hot /warm which was a concern to how long they should be used for. After i finished wiring them in i switched off the led strip switch but kept the panel on the next day went to flip the switch to the leds and they were dead. I boutht 2 of these strips .that was 2 too many. never again

Greater than one weekSo I ordered both the white and blue versions of these and it started burning out. I had them not as well ventilated and the power supply was reading 12.5V so I improved ventilation and reduced voltage to 11.5V (I had a power supply with a pot for minor voltage adjustments). They worked fine for a couple weeks so I went to see if it was just the ventilation and put the power supply back to 12.5V. They started burning out again in the next day. These strips are way too sensitive to voltage with 0.5Volt above normal operating being enough to burn them out. If you run them lower then 12Volts you might be okay, but make sure you check voltage before connecting.

> 3 dayThese LEDs are great and just what I wanted. I installed 5 rolls under my 40 5th Wheel for some under-glow lighting and they look awesome. The adhesive seems to be holding up really well, I installed these in April and have pulled the camper about 500 miles since then without issue. Cleaned the frame with brake cleaner before installing. Having wires at both ends is great for short runs where you need two pieces. I will let the pics speak for the product.

> 3 dayPros: Easy to cut and reattach with separately sold LED strip connectors and wire. Bright lights. Dont get too warm with the proper power adapters. Cons: Adhesive is pretty bad. I have had to use 3Ms double sided tape to hold them up in most areas and that still required quite a bit of that. Overall they get the job done at a cheap price point. If you want to make them Alexa enabled, just get an outlet or powerstrip that is compatible with Alexa.

> 3 dayI received this LED light strip on June 6, installed under my kitchen cabinets June 10, today is June 20 and the LEDs are burnt out in 3 places! Also extremely hot to touch. My other LED light strips (different brand) are warm but not hot. I guess you get what you pay for! I do not recommend this product.

> 3 dayI bought the blue LED strip that could hook up to a car/boat battery. Very simple. A Pos lead and a Neg lead. I unrolled the strip and hooked them up to a toggle switch in my 16 fishing boat. I stuck the strips up underneath the gunwales. I just finished installing them and they look great. Very use to install and the strips felt very sticky/tacky. I hope that they stick for a long time on aluminum. Great shipping, but Im fearing that they will lose their tackiness and fall out of place. If they last more than a season or two, Ill update this review to a 5 star. In hind sight... I should probably put a fuse on the Pos lead .... but that will be a project for another day.
