JOYLIT 24V LED Strip Lights White 6000-6500K 16.4ft/5M 5050 SMD 300LEDs IP65 Waterproof, Dimmable Self-Adhesive LED Tape Lighting for Kitchen Cabinets, Book Shelf, TV Bias Lighting Decoration

I had to use the wire side to connect. They work great, I have one small section that doesn't want to stay adhered, but that was probably my fault prepping. The rest of the strip is holding nicely.

I have these in a heated enclosure. The glue does not hold up to constant warm temperatures, but I made some clips to hold the lights in place and they are working great. This was a little tricky to peel the plastic material off the reach the contacts for connecting multiple strips, but once I got the hang of it, everything worked fine.

The adhesive they use is junk. I had to take it off and use 3m foam tape. Otherwise thee work great for me. They are bright and easy to solder to without the solder pads lifting.

I used it for my 3D printer enclosure to hardwire it to my power supply. Works very well. The adhesive is pretty good too, I’ve had a lot of light strips like this lose their stick over time, but this one’s been great.

Update on June 11 2021: Like other commenters indicated, the ropes have started to yellow significantly after consistent usage (8 hrs a day in my case since my purchase in late April/early May 2021). It's happening on the segments closest to the electrical input, and ropes farther away are still bright white. In my case I'm still happy with the product because I thought 6500k was a little *too* white for my tastes, but others may find this disappointing.---- Original review followsI bought 2 of these ropes because the waterproofing looks OK and the diodes are very bright. It's been just a week since I set them up and the #1 problem I had is, the snap-on connectors these are meant to go with after you cut the rope to length just do. not. work. The clamps don't hold them tightly enough and the slightest movement of the rope means it loses contact, and then it's about figuring out which end of the connector is faulty. Just get yourself a soldering iron and connect those permanently...Second gripe is with the adhesive. Like most other reviewers state, this adhesive melts right off with the heat of the rope. Completely useless. Plus, that blue sticker tends to come off and get stuck to the backing layer of the adhesive, so if you don't rip it off correctly, the adhesive layer wants to come with it!Peel the backing off, apply some Loctite control gel and get some peace of mind there.Thankfully these were cheap and seem bright enough to justify the extra hassle.

Rope was thicker than expected. Much thicker than on previous led strips I have purchased. I think that contributed to the number 1 problem on these lights. They run HOT. I mean crazy hot. I've never seen LEDs get that hot. They were super bright, though, and after some initial troubles with the adhesion, they worked fairly well. One month of use, however, before they burned out is terrible. Not worth it. Do not buy.Photo shows what they looked like before and after 3 weeks of use.

Used these with a 3d printed shroud on my Ender 3 3d printer as it used a 24v power supply and I didn't want a voltage regulator added. Works as it should. Adhesive isn't great, but still sticking for the most part.

All was fine when I cut and installed, other than the delivered packaging, no flexing of the line. After about two weeks, a flicker was seen very infrequently on one of my segments, over time became regular and loss of light. Closer observation, the 6 solder pads seem to have bad contacts. Each LED element has 3 LEDs in the package. Attached pics show some that have had all 3 with open circuit. Tested to make sure not over voltage and burning out near power supply, but voltage is solid 23.>5 through the line. Hard to return as I've soldered plugs to the line.Maybe shipped bad batch? I'll be buying higher quality and more lumen density next purchase
