As we get older, we don't want to have to climb up a ladder every year to install our lights, and so we were happy to find these permanent light solution at an affordable cost. The only downside is that I had to split one of my sets, and in order to do that I had to get a new controller box but they don't sell that separately. so when you order, make sure you order the right amount and don't plan on splitting the set up.

I love the idea of the permanent Christmas lights. We bought a 150' string and a 50' string. The installation was a bit harder than I thought. I think it would be easier if the lights themselves had an area for a screw or clip to go through rather than having to install that separately. Also, I would like to see some additional lights per string so they are a bit closer together. Also more color options. White and now black with the Pro is a good start, but how about tan and brown too? My house is tan and the white stick out like a sore thumb. I do love the colors though and the pre-sets in the app are great! I'd like to see Apple Homekit available with the light strings. I have an iPhone and bought the non-pro (the Pro were not in stock and I didn't even see them on your website until after mine were up). Why not make the non-pro work with Apple Homekit too?

The lights are really nice however, I can’t believe that you can’t buy an additional extension cord for them. Now my house has an area without lights and I am stuck with a strand of lights that I’ll never use. Keep this in mind before purchasing them.

I was first looking at these last year when the original non-pro version was available. However, they were impossible to get and I didn't really like the white color. I'm glad I waited because not only does the pro version come in black, but they have dedicated white LEDs and each kit comes with 3 extensions (one 12 ft., two 4 ft.) and some very nice weatherproof splices if you need to cut/extend the lights. We don't have a solid surface under the eaves , so I had to create something. I got some 2" furring strips and painted them and screwed them in under the eaves. That gave a nice straight surface for mounting the lights. We have sort of a complex roof line in the front, so the installation took about 5 days or so for everything (About ~200 ft. worth of lights) including painting/mounting the furring strips. One important thing I will say about install is make sure you mount these about 2-3 inches from the wall! A lot of the people on Youtube that have videos installing/reviewing these lights install them way too far from the wall, closer to the gutter. This causes you to lose that curved glow that shines down the wall. The 3M adhesive on each light is ok, but it needs reinforcement IMO. The lights come with some nice screw in clips, but they only come with about 30 of them per lighting kit. This is enough for 1 clip approximately every other light. Not a huge deal, but it would be nice if Govee included enough clips to have one on each side of each light to really secure them. I ended up using zip ties on the side of each light which actually worked even better in my scenario. I also mounted the power supplies/controllers in the garage and ran the cables up and out one of the soffits in the back. Overall, I'm fairly impressed with everything and the Govee app has a lot of options if you really want to get creative and put time into it.

Visited a friends home during the holidays and was very impressed with his new govee lights. The ability to control color and scenes from Alexa or your phone is fantastic. I appreciate that the light string itself is not visible from the street. I love the only put them up once but not look like the neighbor that never takes their Christmas lights down. The newest Pro series allows you to control each individual light and you can make them white for year round lighting for your home. Can't comment on longevity because i have just received my Govee lights but the quality feels good.

My wife has wanted Christmas lights on a house since she was a little girl. I wouldn't do it because of not wanting to spend a whole weekend every year climbing up and down a ladder. Permanent outdoor lighting is making my wife's dreams come true. And the install took less than half a day so it made my dreams come true too! Outstanding!!!

Sorry to say, but bought these lights for my mom. The app was super simple and easy for her to understand. However, the rest of the family liked them so much, they are looking into getting some as well! They were easy to install and the preset patterns are beautiful.

Finally took the plunge this year and bought a couple sets of Govee LED permanent lights. After a little prep work, the installation was a breeze. We have the house lights on 2 different timers. Christmas theme on the house until 11:00pm and then plain whites at 50% until sunrise. Along with the curtain lights, our house is again the talk of the neighborhood!

Easy to put up. Sticky tape works well. App is confusing, but fun to use the preprogrammed scenes. Lights are bright and durable. Been recommending to everyone we see. Cool to be the first one in the neighborhood to have them, I'm sure it won't be long before everyone has them! Thanks govee!!

I had been designing our light package for awhile now and finally decided on a 150' section, a 100' section, and a 50' section. While the mounting clips that came with the packages were somewhat ok, they left a lot to be desired. I ended up 3D printing a file for more secure clips, especially for use up in the higher parts that I really don't want to have to go back to. All said and done I'm really happy with the setup. Take your time, plan your routes, establish your dedicated electrical, and use different clips.
