Anyone giving these 1 star are only mad because they couldn't get their hands on them, not because they don't actually like the product. I did manage to get my hands on these - kept an eye on the in-stock dates for months and got them on my second attempt to buy (the first time, Govee mistakenly launched them an hour earlier than what they said the in-stock time would be). These were shipped extremely fast and delivered to me in well under a week. I will say, I'm rounding up with the 5-star rating because I have to; in truth, I deduct half a star for the very minimal hardware included to affix the lights in any real permanent way. Each 16.4ft strand comes with six 10mm LED light clips that you can screw in; one for every 4 lights. Aside from that, each light has a 3M adhesive backing that I guess they expect to do the job of holding the vast majority of lights up year-round - except, the reason I bought these is because adhesive hooks weren't doing the job for my traditional holiday lights and definitely would still not do the job with these. So, I went on Amazon and bought 100 more of the type of screw-in clips that came with these (search “Hysmigor transparent Strip Light Clips"and thank me later). We put one on each side of each light (in addition to using the 3M adhesive backing), which was time consuming, but now we know beyond the shadow of a doubt that these lights aren't going anywhere. And all that was totally worth it! I just love them. So easy to set-up with the Govee app and manage alongside your other Govee lights (I'm not employed by Govee, I swear, but these outdoor lights are a new addition to my existing collection of TV strip lights, gym floor lights, and interior car lights from Govee. I wouldn't have so many if they weren't extremely easy to set up/use, and weren't truly adding value and joy to my life). The fact that I can not only leave these up year round and never have to hang Christmas lights again, but also change the color scheme for each holiday and gathering, makes these worth every penny and hour spent hanging them up. We are even using them as neutral flood lights outside in between holidays, as our yard is otherwise very dark. Photo attached for reference on how we affixed them under our eave using the screw-in clips and 3M backing.

We just love and are so impressed with the Govee RGBIC LED Outdoor lights. The functionality & diversity of changing what you want on the App is incredible and so impressive. Most importantly I did not know how to use the App & had some questions on the product itself and so I reached out to Govee and they immediately responded to my needs & I was completely impressed by the service that I received. So impressed I bought another set and probably leaning to purchasing a third. LOVE IT !!!!

I've only installed 4/6 of the sets cause of a heavy downpour. Being 20 feet off the ground would have been a workout for a 65 year old with a ladder, so I rented a three level scaffolding unit. The hardest part was cleaning under the eaves. The installation was very fast and easy. Next set I'm having to clean and install off the ladder due to shrubbery but the final set I need to disassemble and reassemble scaffolding on the opposite side of my home. As I said before, I couldn't wait to do the full install. I had to try them out to see what it looked like. Absolutely awesome! I'm sure there's a way to control the app with two phones but I just haven't had the time to view the website instructions. Off to finish the install with the ladder!!!

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.

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.

Did receive the lights and installed them, had a slight issue that once I received them they went on sale. Govee was very gracious in refunding me the amount in the difference. So far they have been very reasonable and easy to work with. No issues so far and would recommend them to anyone

Followed the instructions for all 150 feet, and as a precautionary measure, we installed even more of the wire clips than they suggested. A new light falls every single day - it's insane. At this point, I assume every light will need a screwed-in clip next to it in order to stick. Of course, Govee does not provide those additional clips. For the money, It's not worth the hassle these lights have given us. Cool concept; terrible execution.

Had bought the 100 ft "Permanent Outdoor Lights Elite" version (Costco/Sam's Club Exclusive) but ended up a little short. The 16.4 ft "Outdoor Lights 2" extension is identical to the Elites and only requires adjusting "Numbers of Segments" in the Govee app to work.

I was not sure if this purchase would come as advertised. But sure enough I did receive the lights we installed them and are so happy with the lights and what I can do with them. I currently have them on xmas theme can't wait to play around withe the other seasons.

Awesome lights. But pricey but worth it, especially if they last as long as advertised and don't have to replace every few years. All my neighbors who comment say how beautiful they look and ask for details as they wanna buy the same. May be a little overwhelming to learn the options on the app, only because it provides many various options. A++++
