Don't know how to go about this one . I had to get 2 sets of lights for the 1st and 2nd floor of my home . One set of lights were perfect . The 2nd set nothing but problems. Took a week of going back and forth with the help desk to figure it out they sent me the new part asap so let's see who it goes

Shipped quick. Good packaging. Lights and wire well made - should hold up in the elements. Instructions for install good. Hooked up to BT and Wifi first try. Very capable software - would nice to have good descriptions of each feature and menu setting. Might exist but I didn't find it. Experimented with it for some time and figured it out. Looks great on house. Glad I bought it.

Only a few days in but really like it so far. Had 1 3m sticky that came loose and replaced it and all good for the first 4 days. Even customized the bulb color and that was easy too. However, 100 lights took about 3 hours to install so a bit time consuming, plan accordingly. I also did not realize it had a power brick that cannot get wet and was not prepared, make sure you have a way to keep that up and dry.

200 ft took me about 3 hours to put up, and another 3 hours to clean up, conceal wires, install adhesive clips, etc... I would suggest not installing the wire support clips until you have run the show for a few days. You may want to adjust the position of the lights, and this will help woth that. Also, you can cut the wires, and make short extensions no problem. This is useful for small jumps in the eaves if the roof line changes to gBle end or something. I just drilled a hole in the eave, and tucked my extension connections into the eave to keep it dry and weatherproof. Then come back with cauking and seal the hole.

I have these lights on a couple of my houses. The lights work great and the app is easy to use. The only downside is how to mount them. I've had two sets fail with the tape so far in less than a month. One set is on plastic soffit and the other is on smooth wood painted beams. Had to use the clips and screws. Problem with the is that on the beams, you can only get one side of the light screwed down due to the beam only being 1.5" wide. Wish the light pod itself had a reinforced screw hole to hold them flat against the surface.

If you have read a bad review, then something must be wrong! These lights are more than wonderful; they server as holiday lights and downlighting any other time. Sticking the lights to vinyl soffits has worked perfectly as long as you clean the surface with alcohol. Items do not stick to dirt!! You cannot go wrong with these lights and for that matter, Govee.

While the lights look fantastic, and seem to be great built quality. The issue I see is that there is an absolute lack of quality and thoughtfulness for the installer. Can't cut the lights, but they also can't provide extensions beyond the 1 in the package. This makes different eves of the roofline very hard to make look professional because you have to cover up a rogue light since there is no way to setup an extension.

The 3M tape worked for about 24 hours in 75 degree weather. Directions show to hold for 5 seconds and I held it for 15 seconds and it still fell off. I pressure washed the day before and wiped off each spot like the directions show. I had to get 3D printed brackets for each light and now they are staying up great. I wouldn't count on the 3M tape sticking permanently.

Installed these outdoor “permanent"lights and they worked great for 2 months. After that they flickered randomly (not part of any setting or pattern). After contacting Govee to help with the issue they would not help unless I had a receipt (this was a gift and I am unable to get the receipt). I usually like Govee products, but I would consider other offerings.

Having these lights on our house is so much fun. We have really enjoyed having them for the past three weeks. There was not any presets for American Independence Day but using the app I was easily able to create a great-looking red, white, and blue scrolling scheme. Now that the holiday is over, I have set my lights to display a pale yellow to accent my home. My neighbors have commented on how much they enjoy seeing them. I am looking forward to Halloween and using some of the preset schemes. The installation of the lights was tricky mostly because the eaves of my house are high so there was a lot of up and down the ladder. My process I would first spray down the eave with rubbing alcohol and then wipe it down with a rag. Then I took my 2' level which was 2"wide and held it up against my siding and I drew a straight line where I wanted the lights making sure to only draw it in the area I had already cleaned. I found it much easier to install the clips and then go back and attach the 2-sided tape. I would usually do about 4 lights for every clip. Having the pencil line was also very helpful to keep the lights straight. I saw some videos online of other installs and the lights were not straight and I wanted to make sure that mine were. If there was anything I found lacking, it was the supplied clips. I like that they are mounted with 2-sided tape and a screw, but the screw was very small and difficult to work with over my head and on a ladder. I ended up purchasing some other cable clips that had a larger screw and the install was much easier. Also, if you have a lot of ups, downs, and turns you will probably need more clips than what is included. In conclusion, the install was done in about 8 hours total over two Saturday mornings. The lights look great, and we are really enjoying them. I am now looking at other products from Govee to see what else I want to use.
