Bigger is not always better! 5050 are brighter than 3528, but in most applications 3528 are the prime choice. If your running these indoors they are all you need, enclosed areas, gazebos, saunas, hot tub areas. They are rubber/epoxy coated and are very cool white closer to 8500k temperature and produce a very clean white color. If you cut these you can seal the ends with an aquarium safe silicone.

Ordered 2 strips. No power cable included which was a surprise. Sent one with right specs. Second is a blinker. Hope to get that resolved.

First of all, this is the first time I've bought any lighting or things of that nature from Amazon, and I have to say I'm very impressed. Secondly, $10.00??? I admit I was skeptical of the quality at first but once I got them wired in I was blown away. Extremely bright, no burnt out sections, no faults of any kind. I wired them to the trailer plug in my 2010 Toyota Tacoma for bed lights and they work great! No issues with the wiring at all. Overall a fantastic product for what you pay and even if they do burn out or have any issues, they were only $10.00 so you can just buy another set.

I ordered this LED Strip light on Feb. 15/2014, thinking I would get the 12 volt battery as indicated in the introduction. But I was wrong, I received the strip light, with NO instructions or a battery. I inquired as to the why there was no battery. I got an answer that the shipper made a mistake. I was told I would get a battery shipped out and that was a month ago. Who can you trust with these purchases? Not a happy camper!!

This is exactly what I was looking for. I used to buy smaller ones but with this I can cut to length with no issues. Arrived perfectly and on time.

I set up a couple of strips at the hunting camp to see if it would do the job on gel cells; wow the amount of light ;so I ordered 10 more strips to add to the camp. Some people may not like the direct light as it is hot white not like daylight. It would also be good as task lighting for under or over cabinets or even as deck or under step lighting.

There were groups of 3 lights that didnt work, and the tabs for making connection are so small and thin its too easy to burn them off. I was unable to complete my project and they wouldnt send a replacement. I suggest.. Dont Buy

They seem to be very good so far

Works as described.

Arrived inside the projected time frame. The lights themselves are nice and bright. The tape on the back could be stickier. I ended up adding weatherstrip adhesive to some sections to help it stick better. Not a huge deal, but would have been nice to have it stay on it's own. Realatively good buy for the price. Would probably buy them again knowing what I'm getting.
