I worked hard to put up these permanent lights and unfortunately they way my soffits are I can only use the sticky part to install them. I cleaned with alcohol first and let dry then I installed on an 80 degree day and I pressed each light hard for about 30 seconds so they would stick. Now I have about 5 that have come loose in different areas and I dread getting the ladder back out to try and make them stick again. The lights are beautiful and would be perfect if they had other options where you didn't have to rely on only the 3m tape to hold them up.

I installed 150' of permanent outdoor lights plus the 16' non-lit extension on the eaves of my house. Installation was super easy and took roughly an hour and a half. I also installed 6 food lights to match. The lights work perfectly and look even better than I imagined they would. They're just plain awesome! I made a custom lighting profile for Memorial Day, which got many positive comments and reactions from my friends and neighbors. We use the white lights as our day to day, dimming them to 40% for beautiful ambient lighting. Being easily able to make changes at any given time through the app is very convenient and just makes these lights that much more worth installing. I highly recommend these lights and any other Govee lights.

Love the lights so far. Not too difficult to install but bought additional clips to secure each light as some adhesive did not want to stick to vinyl soffit. Would have rated 5 star except for the apparent app glitches. On Halloween, it appears everyone had the same issue of not being able to change scenes. Then I was traveling after Halloween and tried to change to a DIY scene but could not connect. It said I needed to be closer to my device. What is the purpose of wi-fi connection if you can't control it remotely like any other smart light app. I can't turn the lights on or off remotely (for some reason the permanent lights don't work on Google home either). I hope Govee fixes their app issues.

While the lights and app work great, reality is that these lights defeat the whole purpose and best feature of permanent lights of being able to "set it and forget it". We followed all the installation instructions and unfortunately a few days after installation the lights began to fall. Initially it was no nig deal a light here and there, but little by little the lights keep falling. By now we have probably re-attached all 150 feet with the spare adhesive provided and some of the lights still fall. This is not acceptable and will be requesting a refund .

They work great and look great. The only issue is the white cords. I wish they had color options for the cords like brown, black, white and bronze. Those are the typical house colors. The way my house is. I can't hide the lights under anything. So I have to put it on the stucco. And the white shows badly.

The lights are great and bright. Install is fairly easy as well. I wish the app would allow you to build your own customized shows / program lights on your own, with other Govee products. The pre-programmed routines are good, but more customizable on the app would be better

We have put the lights back onto the house 3 times because the 3M tape is awful! It doesn't stick to the paint on most of the lights, even after cleaning thoroughly with alcohol. The few that did remain stuck, peeled off the lights themselves. We have now replaced ALL the 3M tape with gorilla double sided mounting tape and have had no issues. Positives...the lights are beautiful and bright. The app is incredibly easy to use to customize your display. We love the pre-programmed holiday shows. I will buy more products, but I will replace any 3M tape with Gorilla products.

The family and I love our govee lights. Easy to install and the color options are phenomenal. The kids love to choose a different color almost every night. I bought 2 of these kits for my house along with many other govee lights for inside the house.

I originally bought 2 100' boxes. After installing, I realized I could use an additional 50' section to complete my house. I cannot tell you enough how much I love these lights. They have been exactly what I have been looking for in an everyday light, holiday light, party light, etc. I bought the original Permanent Lights, not the Pros. These lights are so simple to use and install. I am not a fan of heights so I worked up enough courage to get on a ladder and walk across my roof. After installing, the app is so much fun to play with. It was a little difficult for me to understand but I am learning with the help from others in the Govee Facebook groups. This has been one of the best investments I have ever made.

We absolutely love the outdoor lights on our house. They were easy to install and we love being able to change the colors! The only thing we have not been able to figure out is how to save light designs on the app for multiple strands linked together with different power boxes. Other than that, best investment on lights.
