Reviews of Flexible Color Changing RGB Ribbon Flexible LED Light Strip 12v (5m

Customer Ratings:

You may or may not get new product. I ordered and Amazon used two different vendors for my LEDs. In both cases the static packages were not sealed as new and the LEDs were defective which made me wonder if I bought someone else's return. Neither would display red and instead gave off a white with a very light tint of pink, one did a blue and the other did not as shown in the picture, it was once again white with an ever slight tint of blue. Orange did not display on one and was washed out on the other. Yellow was not near what the picture shows and you guessed it, it was mostly white. Green worked on one strand and was a washed out white/green on the other. I am still looking for two good 5M color runs to complete my project. To make a long story short, BEWARE of the fact that different companies are filling the orders and all are not sending sealed, new product. You need to check your product BEFORE installing it because you may get a surprise. Good Luck!

The lights rock. Incredibly bright. Gorgeous. I am uncertain of precise remote controller operation, nonetheless, these things generate an overwhelming glorious light effect I am using on my boat, and will also be installing in a dry area in outdoor entertaining area.

Had some problems with getting them to work initially. Customer service was fantastic. Proved to be operator error. Will shop here again, and recommend it to others.

I ordered these lights not really knowing how it would be wired because i have never used RGB strips before. They come with four wires that need to be connected instead of the two wires (positive and negative) that i am used to in my single color LED strips. My biggest problem was that i could not get them to work. i figured they needed the RGB controller to work, and i did not want to order the controller and wait for it to ship in. I asked a worker at a car specialty shop some questions and he explained to me how they work.

There are four wires from the strip. on mine, the colors are black, blue, red, and green. on other light strips it may have white instead of black, but im sure it works the same way. You connect the black (or white) wire to the POSITIVE end of the battery, and the color of your choice to the NEGATIVE, or ground, terminal. So if you want green, the black wire goes to the positive, and the green wire goes to the negative. if you want purple, you connect the black wire to the positive, and both the blue and red wires to the negative.

if you plan to cut the roll into multiple strips, you may find it difficult to solder on new wires to the strips. there are four points that need to be soldered (if you want all seven colors), which may prove to be tricky because the points are near each other, leaving little room for error.

The lights are nice and bright, as you would expect from an LED strip if you have previously owned any. The colors are red, blue, green, yellow, purple, teal, and white. i have not used a controller with these lights, but i can assume that with the controller you can get different shades of the colors. the red is not as bright as the rest of the colors, which is common for LEDs. Overall, i am highly satisfied with these lights and am really excited to have these installed in my car. for the price (around $30.00 or so) i would most DEFINITELY buy these again in the future for other applications.

WARNING this is the light strip only, you have to purchase the power adapter and control board seperately, other than that i enjoyed this, alot of people use these for parties but i used mine to write a message on the wall of my girldriends room and it just looked awesome in my opinion. little hard to make it work but wow does it light up.
