   Bright. Dimmable. So hot they melted them plastic roll when I wasn’t paying attention. Would not recommend putting these near anything remotely flammable or that could melt.

   Used for under cabinet lighting in my kitchen. They have been installed for a few weeks now and I really like them. I have them hooked up to a kasa dimmer and (so far, knock on wood) it works flawlessly. Can’t comment on longevity yet but I’m hopeful. The transformer does get hotter then expected but the location I chose is open air so I don’t foresee any issues but will keep an eye on it. I saw some reviews that said they weren’t bright enough but these are actually way brighter then I was expecting which I was happy about. I like having more light then I need and dimming it down. I run these on 60% most of the time and it’s perfect. I wiped the area I was installing them with rubbing alcohol and then wiped that area again with a clean paper towel and made sure the area was totally dried. They stuck very well. Even had to reposition a section and it’s still sticking well. I did turn them on for a few minutes prior to installing so the glue would soften up some and promote adhesion. Then once installed I left them on for an hour or 2 and went back every so often and applied pressure everywhere to help set the glue. Highly recommend for the price. The transformer power cord comes installed but is easily removed and trimmed to length which I appreciated.

   I’ve had this tape light installed under my kitchen counters for 3 years now and they’re still working perfectly fine. Even the one right next to the stove that sees heat and steam from cooking daily is still going strong. I keep them on pretty much all day every day so they definitely last a long time. They also dim very nicely just using a standard led rated dimmer. The 3000k color temperature is great for food prep. Overall I’m very happy with this kit.

   Installed these under my kitchen cabinets. Adhesive holds very good. I installed it without a dimmer switch so it’s extremely bright. Install was easy for me as I’m also an electrician. Works great. Quality product. Will recommend.

   I bought these to use as under cabinet lighting in my kitchen. Unfortunately, they don’t really fit my needs. The strip really doesn’t provide enough light for my purpose. This is specially true because I feel I need to use a diffuser because the LEDs are so widely spaced. You end up with many small bright reflections on the countertop, instead of a the spread out glow like the florescents they are replacing. The diffuser dims them a bit, though, so I’d end up with needing 3-4 strips and diffusers under each cabinet. That’s a pain.

   A few really good features, though: the light controller remembers its settings if you turn off its power. In my case, this is great, because I want to hook it up to the wall switch that controlled the florescent lights. Another great feature is that they do a color-tunable light with only two power pins. That makes finding connectors easy. I used a screw-terminal type block to connect these things, and had no issues whatsoever getting them to work. I switched to another COB-style tunable LED strip which is brigther and doesn’t need a diffuser. That has three pins, and that has given me nothing but problems trying to find connectors that work reliably. Finally, you can directly wire the

   So, these would be perfect f they were COB-style or were a lot brighter (maybe 2x the LED density). I think the manufacturer’s web site advertises a denser strip, but it seems out of stock.
