Pros

The led strip is easy to install and works seamlessly once set up. It plugs right into my led controller with zero issues. Comes with two plugs (one male, one female) pre-attached for easy connections. Wishes more support clips were included as this i...  Read More

Color temp is spot on 2700 k and i like the warm tone. Best suited for mood/accent lighting in an environment that you want to be relaxing. The 6000k color is what i would expect from something called daylight white.

The strip is constructed with a thick rubbery coating concealing all the leds and other components. The adhesive is fine but make sure you are just removing the super thin blue layer. This is a thicker strip and unless you are attaching this to a very...  Read More

The quality of the light is noticeably cleaner than your lower tier strips. It's not perfect, but it's lightyear's better than a walmart strip.

Staring at it closely when it's running at full power gives you powerful afterimages that make it difficult to see what you're typing. I have a very dark shower area in my bathroom that needed brightening. It's more noticeable at full brightness; it's...  Read More



Cons

There is also an issue with the male power connector supplied as it needs to be a female and there is a missing cap that will make the female end water tight. Don't try to power them with anything less than a 6 amp power supply. This strip generates a...  Read More

Quality


The quality of the light is good with no dead spots.


The quality of the light is just fantastic too.


This cob light is nearly seamless, as it's made of many smaller lights and a diffusion material.


These 12v cob style light strips would be perfect for any application that requires edge lighting, or even for under counter li...  Read More

Price


All that said, i think this represents a decent value at its current price.


It's a cost-effective and stylish lighting solution that has elevated the look of my indoor spaces.


I wonder if this value is actually measured by the manufacturer for a 1 meter length, not for the average of a 1 meter section ...  Read More


This is a decent, very reasonably priced spool of tape light.

Shipping


Came fast and was easy to install.


I was waiting for them to arrive before making a decision.


It did need a bit of time in the sun to relax the coil memory, but that's not unusual for products like this shipped on a reel.

Packaging/appearance


This btf cob strip arrived in excellent condition.


It does not come with any sticky tape.

Competitiveness


This is very well made and on par in terms of build quality and materials used with it's competitors.


Ive used btf brand lighting from amazon in many projects.


For comparison, an iphone 15 has an ip rating of 68.


I got two different strip light brands (for two spots) to test out, so a lot of this review is a comparison with another brand.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    First off of the two brands this brand was not as bright


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Though i would point out that the sticky backing probably doesnt have the best hold on sheetrock or wood which is often what you want to install it on


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One lesson i learned in this process was that the new strip lights seem like they are mostly 24v where my old ones were only 12v


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I thought i would be able to reuse my old power adapter and i couldnt


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I also discovered that the ends on the power adapters arent standard
