Monster Smart Illuminessence Neon LED Light Strip - 5m (16.4 ft.)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these lights a few weeks ago and love them. They are very well made. They are meant for indoor and outdoor use. Light in weight, durable, flexible and is an easy set up. My only complaint is I wish they were longer. It comes in a 16.4 ft. strip, but the great thing is the price is good so I can just buy more in addition. Also there website has a lot of other cool options for your indoor or outdoor needs. There’s different options for use. You have a button on the power wire that allows you to turn them on and select your colors. It even has an option you can use with your phone which has even more features to use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in the process of remodeling/setting up my home office, and wanted a light strip to go around the room, as well as my desk. This is exactly what I wanted! It’s 16.5 feet long! It was incredibly easy to install and start using. With others I have used in the past I always had trouble getting them to work, but with my Monster Smart Indoor/Outdoor Multi Color LED Light Strip I am able to control it all easily using the remote that it came with! I love that I can customize the light setting and speed, and adjust the brightness with the click of a button! I definitely recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The only included way to mount this light strip is using screws. I wanted to install this in my kitchen under my cabinets but have a backsplash so can’t screw into the wall and couldn’t screw into the cabinets because there was not enough wood, so I had to find another way to install it. The strip is rubbery (maybe silicone) and smooth, so it was difficult to get things to stick to it properly. We tried standard foam mounted double sided tape but that didn’t stick to the strip. We tried to stick the tape to the included clips, and it didn’t stick well to those either. We then tried to super glue the tape to the clip and that didn’t hold. Then we used sandpaper to rough up one side of the clip and used super glue to attach a heavy-duty foam mounted double sided tape and that finally held. We also added some additional tape in between the clips for added support. I was able to use only one strip and it fits perfectly in my kitchen. The directions say that you can cut it if it is too long. The app allows a ton of personalization to the colors, speed, and fade effect of the light. You can schedule what time you want it to come on or how long you want it to stay on. You can set preset colors schemes for different events. Each color scheme can include up to 8 colors. You can set the brightness and saturation to get exactly what you want. You can set the way the light changes colors and how quickly that happens. What I don’t like about the app is that it is integrated through the wifi in your home. You have to give the app your wifi password and set it up on the lower wifi available on your device. I have 5G wifi in my house and had to connect my phone to the 2G option in order to use the app which sacrifices internet speeds on my phone. It does provide a decent amount of light. My kids were watching a movie in the dark and I was working in the kitchen, but they complained that the kitchen light was on, I was able to turn this light on and the kitchen lights off and still see everything I was doing without the light disturbing them. I have even dimmed the light at night to keep cleaning up the kitchen after the kids go to bed, so the light doesn’t keep them up. I really like the versatility this light provides.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was super excited about getting this LED light strip because I already knew where I wanted to use them. I love the outdoors and I love lights so couldn't wait to display them. Everything I needed was included in the kit. I would have given this 5 stars but unfortunately I was very frustrated over all with having to place the screws inside the clips just right which is hard when they are super small and the fact that I was not able to hang the light strip where I originally wanted because it is a one direction hang. I ended up wrapping it around the bottom of our hot tub which I love just as much! This light strip is super neat with all its different color and preset options. It can be controlled by using the app, which was very easy to set up and also by using Google or Alexa. The lights are so awesome to see in the dark, the kids love it too! I love that I am able to use it outdoors due to it being waterproof (besides the power adapter). Definitely worth getting if you love cool looking lights!
