LE LED Strip Lights

Really bright and warming and of course is comes with the dimmer to make it cozy. If you can ignore the mess in my kitchen and look at the little light you can see how nice they are. Kind of remind me of nightclub steps lol.

Really easy to install and looks great. Very sticky and versatile as it can be cut to length. Bright and appears good quality. Fitted to the underside of some repurposed scaffold boards.

Warmer at lover light levels but the highs are more white they work really well and the adhesive on the back stuck well I put the clamps on as well but they aren’t really needed Overall, recommended and are as promised

Overview: Nice warm white lighting with no LEDs not working. Easy to use and a very worthwhile purchase. Disclaimer: I don’t know what I’m doing, I really don’t! I’m not a decorator or electrician. Hopefully if you don’t know what you’re doing either, then this review helps! Postage and Packaging: Its Prime, so delivery was quick as always. Packaged nicely and once opened out had all the required components to complete the job. Installation: As per the video, I wired this up to replace previous spotlights under the cupboards. This meant installing sockets first (I used this BG ELS134B 4-Gang Permaplug if you are doing something similar). Once the plugs are in, I extended the wiring down and then connected to the “tail-end” of the strip. You can apply power to either end, so this worked perfectly. Applying the strip was as simple as peeling away the backing and sticking down. The adhesive strip seems strong enough. Yes, the tape isn’t heavy and therefore shouldn’t fall off - but I’ve bought enough where it does so its always worth stating. Now its all applied its worth summing up the following: • Checked before installing and after. All LEDS remain lit. • Described as Warm White and it is - I’ve tried to get the photos to show a realistic reproduction. 4100K temperature gave the best result. • The tape was easy to cut, and easy to connect with the included connectors. • Using the connectors takes a little ..finesse. They are tight, which is good as the connection will last, but they are definitely tight! • The adhesive on the tape is easy to use, and has stayed so far. I have no reason to believe it will fail. • The tape is also flexible enough to fit into, and around, corners. • Lighting is nice and even. • There is no sound from the transformer plug, and no undue warmth. • Slight delay on start of one set of lights against the other. Longevity: I think that the lights will last. The biggest risk is that LEDs start failing. I can’t say how likely this is, but will be keeping a close eye out for this and will edit this review if it happens. Given how easy it is to attach connectors though, you can always cut out a strip and replace.

Great light quality with remote control Sticks well and doesn't peel

This is a brilliant product at a really good price. I have used almost the full 5 metres - one long piece to go around the top of a wardrobe and then 3 smaller pieces to go inside and light up when the doors are opened (you need the LED motion switches, which are sold separately, but make sure you get ones that are compatible with the 5050 series LED). It is easy to cut. If, like me, you cut it into a number of strips, then you will need some more connectors of the right type (5050 compatible, 5mm wide I think), but they are cheap and quickly delivered from Amazon. Make sure you watch the vid on YouTube so you understand how to fix the connectors to the strip correctly, otherwise the air will be blue and you will waste LED strip. You have to cut it in the right place, then cut through and STRIP AWAY THE PLASTIC TOP COATING TO EXPOSE THE CONTACTS then make sure you have the +ve side of the strip to the +ve side of the connector, then slide the strip into the connector, put the cap over and snap it in place - it works! This kit comes with a radio transmitter and in-line plug in receiver, so you can control the lights from anywhere in the room. There are different modes, although I only use the 100%, 75% and 25% switches. The flashing light modes will drive you crazy. You can power the (in my case 4) cut strips from the one transformer if you are useful with some simple cable connectors and a bit of 2-core cable from your local DIY. Cheap as chips. Works a treat. Really impressed and would recommend it for wardrobes - probably really good for kitchens too. I'm not so sure I would trust it to work outside as I suspect the connectors would not be waterproof. If you could keep the transformer dry and the connectors, chances are it could work outside - its only 12V outlet.

I orginally brought one lot to try under my kitchen cupboards to give the kitchen som under light on worktops. Wow, these really are a great buy, so much so i brought another 7, to go all round the kitchen, i had to buy seperate as my cupboards are spaced apart. Not only do these really make my kitchen look beautiful, they are also dimmers, so you can hae them at any brightness you want. Super easy to install, just peal back and stick (on clean dry surface) then i just stuck the dimmer switch to the wall. I can honestly say we dont need the big ceiling light on now. For me these were just what i wanted and am so pleased with them. It was also handly that they were in this lengh to , as i think if they had been longer it would have been to much, much better for the small areas. I would recommend deffaitnly. Wish i had got another one for my sons bedroom now.

These are quite thin. So just be mindful when you purchase. They have a sticky back but we didn't use this so can't comment on durability of the stickiness. We used these to light up our tent when we went camping, and they added a lovely glow. The bonus is that they dim, so you can turn them down when you want to dim the lights. But when on max they are very bright. Excellent value, and lovely warm white colour.
