ALITOVE 16.4ft 5050 SMD Red LED Flexible Strip Ribbon Light 5M 300 LEDs Waterproof IP65 DC 12V for Home Garden Commercial Area Lighting

Loved the even illumination

Worked fantastic although I did get 3M tape double sided just to make sure everything stuck for a real long time haven’t had any problems with that for the last couple of months

Love the rich color, very bright & impressive in our red, white & blue display.

I 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.

I used this for my underhood accent lighting. I just installed, so I will update if anything changes. The double sided tape seemed strong. I used the plug end so I can disconnect if needed and I wired it to a hood pin switch I added so the light comes on when I open my hood. I have the remaining 9-10 I can use for something else with the hard wire ends so Im glad both ends had wiring connections. Day/night pictures attached

Well, Im bummed. I read some of the reviews about these lights and noticed the listing said that, due to complaints, they have upgraded the adhesive to 3M VHB Foam Back Tape instead of the red stuff you see in the images. Well, I ordered three of these for a project to light the interiors of some garage cabinets, got everything installed and working, and the next day opened up the cabinets to find them falling off everywhere. I keep a roll of super-sticky double-sided tape that I used to strategically place better adhesive on top of the products adhesive and now they are holding up. Lights work great otherwise. Just disappointed about the adhesive.

Purchased a roll of these lights to wrap a 4 ft fiberglass pole to make a whip light for my side by side. First roll I got was great... adhesive was strong and held the lights in place while I wrapped the pole. Got to the end and was able to get the heat shrink tubing over it and everything went without any problems. Light whip looks and functions great... nice and bright and I love the black PCB look. HOWEVER... THAT WAS THE EXCEPTION!!! Bought another roll to do another fiberglass pole and before I could wrap 2 feet of the pole I started hearing this faint popping sound. The silicone covering started to crack and peel in several areas. By the time I had 3 feet wrapped the silicone was flaking off... no way I was going to be able to make that work. Peeled it off the pole and sent it back and ordered a replacement. Third roll just arrived and I set to work on making the second light whip. Everything went great. Got the pole wrapped without any issues... same as the first. Then, as I began to work the shrink wrap over the lights and pole I began to hear that faint popping again. By the time I got the shrink wrap over the pole there were no less than 20 pieces of silicone flaking off the light strip. I went ahead and heated the wrap getting some of the silicone to re-seat on the led strip, but several either broke off inside the wrap or would not lay down agains the lights and so there are several bumps and divots all up the pole. Now the casual person will not see them, and you certainly wont know they are there at 50mph running through the desert. But I KNOW THEY ARE THERE, and I know the poor quality of this product. The description states Using flexible copper circuit board, you can gently bend it to an arc. Please NEVER rudely bend it to right or acute angle, otherwise the circuit board and silicone coating will crack. Well, I didnt rudely bend it to 90 or any acute angle... I wrapped to around a fiberglass rod and it cracked. Not happy with the end result... it still works so for now I will use it, but I think when I decide to re-build the light (and I will as I am very particular about my things) I will look at other brands of lights. Its too bad really... they looked like quality lights from their appearance. Oh yeah... one last thing. The picture shows them wound on the roll with the lights facing out, but when you get them, the lights are wound to the inside so the silicone coating is already set OPPOSITE to how you are going to mount the lights, so from the very start you are risking the silicone cracking because it is pre-conditioned to bend up... so no wonder when you flex them down around something they crack.

These lights are super bright and they’re a great color. However, they get super hot when left on for a while, and the adhesive on the back pooped out after 3 days. If you buy these lights, buy some aluminum led strip channels to go with them and keep them away from anything highly flammable. Good for $15 but if you’re looking for a premium product, keep looking!

There is no instructions or directions. There is loose wire and some adapter that I have no idea where or what to plug it into. Sending back.

Total garbage. Cheap Chinese junk. Seller states that they use high quality double sided tape. The tape is junk, doesnt have the 3M logo and the lights fell off. Returned for a refund. Tape on this product is not 3M VBH tape. The seller should be required to remove this statement from the items description! 【3M VHB Foam Back Tape】 Based on buyers’ feedback on adhesive issue, we upgraded the tape to 3M VHB heavy duty foam mounting tape. It is much more sticky and durable than blue or white tapes which is widely used by other brands. Never fall off. ( Heating the tape with heat gun or hair dryer will make it more sticky.)
