A Great Set of LEDs! This is a fantastic product! For $11 I wasn’t expecting much, but these are great. They’re really bright, look great and come exactly as advertised. I would like to make a few notes for people who have never bought LEDs like this before, or are not experts at electronics. These will not just plug into the wall like a normal light would. Essentially at one end of the strip of LEDs there are 2 wires, a positive (red) and a negative (black), which will be hooked into a power supply. If you want to plug these into a wall outlet, you’re going to need a power converter.I have these hooked into my car amp and have them mounted under my seats and on the edge of my doors with a toggle switch. When the bass hits (really when my amp outputs power) they light up in tune with the bass. One issue with this is that these require a bit of power to first get them going, so I need to have the volume up a bit higher than I would like, but it’s fine. I’m not taking any points off from this, I’m just mentioning it just in case someone else considering this product had the same application in mind.The wires that this comes with are extremely thin and actually somewhat hard to strip. I only own one pair of wire strippers and they don’t handle this thin of wire. I ended up stripping them with a pocket knife because I didn’t want to spend a ton of time stripping them, but it’s worth noting. I’m assuming this wouldn’t have been an issue if I had the right set of tools.The adhesive backing is 3M brand and it holds well, but not as well as I would like. I live in an area when it gets cold in the Winter, and the cold seems to weaken the adhesive. I might go with some more heavy duty adhesive for this particular job, but I’m assuming the adhesive this came with wasn’t meant for this type of application, so I surely won’t take off any stars for me misusing the product.Interestingly these are able to be cut, and they have lines marking where they can be cut, but I don’t see this mentioned in the product description at all. I’m not sure if you can re-use the cut sections since I didn’t actually need to cut them (and, for the record, I am not an electronics expert by any means), but it would definitely take some work to do so, since you would have to add positive and negative wires coming out of the cut sections. I just think it’s worth mentioning (and other reviewers have actually mentioned it, but for the sake of completeness I will mention it again).One thing to note is that while these are indeed flexible, bending them into a circle or arch shape is troublesome, especially if you want one with a small radius. I had an extremely hard time bending these around the shape of my car and ended up folding them to finally get them into the shape I wanted. They still work though which was really surprising to me; they’re very tough. I bent, twisted, folded, and even stepped on these a few times and they still work just fine!As for the seller: I didn’t have any issues and received the product on-time. I ordered 2 of these at once and they were individually packaged but shipped in the same envelope which was really great; the less things I have to worry about carrying back from the post-office the better.Overall, this is a great product if you know what you’re doing with them. I originally ordered 2 and they both came in perfect working order and I am definitely considering buying more if I can find another project to use these with.

Fantastic and super bright Easy to install thanks to adhesive back layer.These things are soooooo bright. I did my double-entry door.Looks great with the icicle lights around the rest of the outside of the house.And 300 SMD LED for that price – can’t beat it!Highly recommend!Beware: You will need a 12V DC power supply with about 2 AMPS – not part of this.
