It has been just over a year and a half that I have this strip lighting and for now the battery of the remote control is always good and I served every day because the LEDs are placed behind a screen ambilight projection style and remains on for at least 5 hours a day, by the adhesive tape against is not very top it does not stick very well for me but no worries because I put on the bottom of the screen and on both sides, there is more problematic because forced to put some chatertone. Otherwise certain colors for 4 months on 30cm band are no longer identical to the suit but they are not the most important .Voilà nothing dramatic I do not regret my purchase.
