100FT Led lights Wifi

Second update 10-20-2022: Daybetter just sent a second set of lights and these seem to work as they should. Easy to setup Wi-Fi and light scenes now work. The scheduler works like a charm and is nice to automate. Daybetter seems to stand by its products and they seemed concerned that I was a happy camper and had resolved in 3 Days. Thanks Daybetter! Update 10-17-2022: DayBetter just got with me and are sending out a new set. I will update my experience with the new set after I get setup again. I was really impressed that DayBetter contacted so quickly, maybe I should have just emailed the seller but Amazon said item could not be returned. I was really excited to get these and try out. We just purchased a new home and now have a man cave to decorate. Setup was easy and the adhesion was good. The bad thing about these lights is that they have no way to add another roll easy without splicing with a kit sold separately, and they should have a 4 prong female plug on each side with a 2 sided male to connect and should come with a 6 foot white extension cord so dont have to run lit lights up corner of wall. It took one roll to go half way around room, then I purchased a link kit and the other roll lit up ok. For a couple days! After a week the red started looking like pink a foot from where power connected then they started turning different colors even though I selected red. When selecting blue I got green, Blue and yellow which was strange. Another week went by and now they dont work at all. maybe the set was a bad one, I dont know but sucks to only have working for 2 weeks for 30 bucks and 10 bucks for link kit. I was expecting more as they looked better than most light sets. Live and learn while companies get rich off of defective toys...!

Edit: seller reached out within 24hrs of my post. They offered a full refund or replacement. Since I’ve seen other great posts, and my daughter living the lights, I requested a replacement. It was the easiest and fastest process I’ve ever dealt with for any kind of replacement. The replacement was in the mail the very next day. So far so good. Bought these lights as Christmas present for my daughter in 2022. She had a few issues with parts of the light strip turning different colors, but didn’t feel it was a huge deal. It’s now October 2023 and the lights don’t even work. At first we thought it was the remote so we downloaded the app. We realized it wasn’t the remote after all. You can see the lights are very dim in the dark. I’ve tried everything and it appears they are just broken. I would have given this a 5 star when we first got them. Very easy to install and use. I give 1 star because we did enjoy them while they lasted, but they didn’t even last a full year.

I bought these LED light strips to add some ambient lighting to my room, and overall they’ve been a good purchase. Setup was quick since they come with adhesive backing, and I had them up in a few minutes. The color options are great, and the remote makes it easy to switch between settings. The brightness is decent, though not as strong as I expected in larger spaces. The adhesive also started to loosen in a couple of spots after a while, so I had to reinforce it. For the price, they do what I needed!

These lights look very nice, they stick pretty well on a clean smooth surface. They have a lot of colors, but no chasing or twinking scenes. We really like that there are three ways to control them - the remote, the phone app, and with Alexa or Google Home. We have Alexa, and it was a bit iffy at first. They need to be setup first in the Tuya app, and then linked to the Alexa app. It was bit tricky, the first time I linked them Alexa saw the lights but would not control them. Had to delete them, re-add them to our 2.4 Ghz only network, and then they linked and Alexa was able to control them. One small glitch, they don't work inside a group. Mine are in the Alexa group 'Mood lights' and the other devices work, but these don't. They only work with their own name, which I called 'Night lights', and they work fine that way. But these Night lights are in the 'Mood lights' group and they will not turn on/off with the rest of the lights in that group. Not a show stopper by any means, the lights overall look great and that they work with Alexa at this price point is a good deal.

Customers should know that pairing mode can be quite tricky... The easiest way, is DO NOT use the remote. Plug them into a surge protector that has an on off button. Start with the lights OFF. Then follow the On-Off-On-Off directions. The only issue I found is it can be difficult to maintain a stable/constant WiFi connection if your router is in "Smart WiFi". The way to disable this is to go into your router settings, and turn "Smart WiFi" OFF. Then set your 2.4GHz & 5GHz to separate SSIDs. Once that is done, you'll have no issues with disconnections. It makes it fun, they're easy to put up due to the 3M adhesion power. The only time they flicker for me, is during pairing mode. I highly recommend, Just try to get an idea of what you're doing before you buy them. 👍
