The LED Strip itself sticks quite well to the substrate (as opposed to the other assertion), its not specified Amazon brightness (about 90Lm / m) is not enough as a working light. This leaves only the use as an effect lighting (behind the TV or in the living room wall unit). Nevertheless, the thing consumes a current of 2A at full brightness, these are 24W. From the much-cited energy savings with LED therefore is not much left. In the kitchen, I use a different, single-color LED strips of 600lm / m brightness delivers and does not need more power. There is no color Spielerein but for a really bright work light. The control unit with the remote control buttons rich is very playful. Initially quite funny, later the hectic flickering nerves yes only. It would have been better to provide more brightness gradations available. The included switching power supply makes a good impression. Aware only 3 points.
