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

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.

Ive been buying these for a few years for various uses. These ones are way dimmer than they used to be. Continued cheapification of popular products on Amazon.

Decent brightness, nice color temperature. This one did not come with the 3M sticky backing and as you can see from the photo the black sticky stuff can come off the less while you are pulling the red plastic off. The description or a review said they switched to 3m, but that is not what got sent to me. I got some deep orange as well and that did come with 3m adhesive. Be prepared to use your own adhesive. I will use a little silicone in spots or everywhere if gravity pulls it down.

Very fragile. Had to buy a new one because if pulled to hard it will rip apart and can not extend once broken

I have bought and installed more than my fair share of LED strips. In boats, RVs, trucks, ATVs, houses, you name it. From multiple different suppliers including eBay, direct sellers, etc. I’m impressed with the quality of these out of the package. Thick, sturdy, good wiring, color is consistent and bright as you’d expect for 5050s. The 3m tape backing always seems to be the weak link with a good install. It just doesn’t last. We’ll see how these do. I’ll buy again though - much better than waiting a month to get a package from overseas.

Purchased for my pontoon boat exterior lighting. Great effect. It was exactly as I had hoped and then some. Well priced, packaged, fast delivery and cut to exact measurements. Very easy to install and looks great.

Simple installation- pull back tape, stick it on, connect two wires and your done

Very brights does get a little hot near the plug in

Using these for an LED sign very bright and work great

The other blue LEDs on white tape are less expensive, but the black tape is more elegant if you are going to see it. The LEDs look like a cluster of dots, so it may be less bright. The thicker mounting tape may stick better - as they claim. But I have not tested that, nor the amount of light
