Customer Review

Video at Amazon.com View LED lighting strips of this type are in local hardware stores very big bestseller, which I rather panicked run at the prevailing price arrangements in the opposite direction. The price / performance ratio of this initial set of EC Technology at least I like seeing that much better, so the theme "Support your local hardware store" can be placed ad`acta quickly.

For me the strips as Philips Ambilight replacement behind the TV is because on `NEN really good TV wants you only wg. an integrated and patented illumination then also not do without.

Supplied with apparently all utensils for immediate use included. The LED strip itself - very practical - delivered on a small plastic role and can be as knick - delayed, and wrinkle-free. A power supply incl. IR controller, additional connecting elements and the remote control round off the good impression.

The LED strip as the main actor is white and thus, at least on wall panels virtually invisible install. Pleasantly surprised the really high-quality processing, even the intermediate pieces - and plugs are securely attached and clean. The material is not completely odorless, but the smell dissipates after a few hours of fresh air. Honestly - I have here, especially in Asian goods, significantly poorer quality feared. Verso on the LED band is an adhesive tape from 3M attached - again quite so solid and useful value work. But beware - the actual tape is transparent, the carrier film extremely thin. So tear down not too much!

After a little glue - and installation work and the cobbling together of the individual components (dyes) like games begin, however, require a little tweaking. The operation via remote control requires some acclimatization period, especially a guide - well - is virtually absent. Red / Green / Blue / white are the basic colors that are additionally mixed in RGB color levels. May sound complicated at, as it is in practice finally. The effect of LED lights on the other hand is - if desired - quite bombastic, ranging from "simply times the Christmas tree in romantic white dive" up to "a la Hamburg Reeperbahn red light".

Ingenuity are no limits here practically set, especially the LED strip can be cut even at intervals of three elements / extended. No specific reason I renounce even though so far unnecessary Schnipselei at the fairy lights.

Small drawback: the effects of certain basic settings and reproducibly with dimmed brightness, the power supply is a soft humming sound. A fact that stands out in the immediate and quiet environment, even at a few meters away but no longer falls interfere.

Conclusion: For hobbyists and trailers of indirect lighting a useful, convenient and suitable for everyday use basic equipment, their areas of application - only a function of an ultimate outlet - is endless. Buy recommendation!
