Nexillumi 30 m LED strip lights

These LED lights exceeded my expectations. They are very bright, the colors look vibrant, and the remote/app controls work smoothly. Installation was simple—the adhesive sticks well and the strip bends easily around corners. My favorite part is how many color and mode options there are; it really changes the mood of the room instantly. So far, they’ve stayed in place perfectly and haven’t overheated. If you want affordable LED lights that look great and are easy to use, this set is a solid choice.

At first I thought oh the lights are too far apart in comparison to my previous purchase and lights in my other rooms. However after installing they worked out nicely. I appreciate that new lights come with wall plug and dual connection for both rolls. The light strip is white and blend in with my white trims perfectly. I hope they they lastba long time. The qualihht, and brightness is perfect. For installation use tape to temporarily adjust where you want the lights and then permanently install when you have it right. This made installation perfect for me.

This was very easy and quick to set up underneath my workplace's countertop last year. The remote handles basic tasks well, though a couple of the LED light colors were not accurate to the colors of their corresponding remote buttons (mostly when both blue and green LEDs were being used simultaneously). The built-in microphone was barely used but was responsive when it did get used. For more advanced features, the manufacturer's app is needed. I was wary of installing it, as it's an app and developer I wasn't familiar with. I eventually did install the app, though it was on a separate device, and I only gave it the Bluetooth permissions needed to communicate with the LEDs. The app made the LED strips a lot more interesting, as I was able to more fully customize the light colors and sequences for events such as holidays. I'm not aware of any security issues with the app, but it doesn't hurt to be careful, so I reset my device after I uninstalled the app. There wasn't an UL certification that I could see, though I honestly wasn't expecting one on such an inexpensive item. While an UL certification isn't a guarantee that it won't burst into flames like one hears about with some LED devices (in general, not this brand specifically), it would've given me more peace of mind if I accidentally left it plugged in for a few days. Without such certification, I made doubly sure to unplug the device whenever no one would be at the counter, as I noticed some electricity is supplied to the LEDs even while "off" (putting pressure on some parts of the strips while plugged in would cause a barely-noticeable light to appear in the LEDs). While it was easy to set up, it's very difficult and time-consuming to remove whole if you want to reuse them elsewhere. There are a few points of soldering keeping the strips together, and the metal circuits don't stretch while their backing does. But these seem like problems common with most LED strips in general. Since I didn't care about keeping them whole after some impact damage happened to parts of the LED strips (they were recessed where installed but not inaccessible), tearing them out and throwing them away went pretty quickly. All in all, it worked out very well and was a hit with coworkers and clients alike. Having to throw them away didn't pain me as much as it might have with higher-priced LED strips. I may have been needlessly cautious, but it isn't really paranoia when "they" (including some app developers) really are out to get everyone they can.

Purchased for lighting a cross at church. Looks nice, but not sure will work long-term. Had difficulty outlining the corners. Going to upgrade to more expensive ones. Would recommend for kids' room - will flash with music. A fair price but not high quality. Had issues because we tried folding/creasing the strand. I'd buy it for my grandkids as a gift.

I just got mine so I'm going to update this review if something changes. Right now I'm pretty satisfied with my purchase. The lights were super easy to install, minus getting the piece of paper of the double sided sticky. Oh my god was that a pain 😂. Before you purchase the 100 foot know that it will come in two separate 50 foot strands that will be split at the box in which they plug in. I do not think you can actually combined them together for 100 feet. Honestly the 100 feet was overkill for my standard apartment ( there are 300 million apartments in America that are designed just like mine lol). I mean I liked how much Overkill it was, but I wasn't expecting so much. The lumens are good. You can get pretty dark with these and crank the lights pretty high. If I were to guess in lumens, probably between 800-1000 for the brightest. Maybe not even that bright, but definitely adequate. The colors themselves are very vibrant. The only thing I didn't like is there's no way to send like a color changing signal going down the strand, but that could be a DYI. The different settings really makes this cool. You can set it to music mode, or make your own mode. It comes with a controller, or you can use the QR code on the splitter box to get the app. App is alright I guess. Could be much better. But you can set a timer on the app. The one thing that these have going for them too us how easy it is to bend the tape. That make doing corners a lot easier. Overall so far, it's a good set of lights. We'll see how long they last now. If they last at least a year or two, I'll be really satisfied then.
