Govee H61951A1 Alexa LED Strip Lights
DESCRIPTION
The LED strip lights are compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing you to control the lights more intelligently. Using simple voice commands, you can turn on/off the lights, adjust the brightness, and change the colors (5G Wi-Fi not supported). 2 rolls of 32.8ft strip lights are sufficient to illuminate large areas. Color-changing lights will energize your bedroom, living room, cupboard, bar, Christmas tree, or balcony. (Note: 4-pin connectors are not included). Use the Govee Home app, IR remote, or control box to control your lights. Our app has 16 million colors, several Scene Modes, a Timer function, and much more! With the remote and control box, you’ll have more direct control.
The LED strip lights have a built-in high-sensitivity microphone and sync to ambient sounds. The Dynamic and Mild modes are intended for various types of music. Select Mild for a soft piano piece or Dynamic for an indoor party. LEDs of high quality provide excellent brightness and have a 50,000-hour life span. Because of the UL-certified power adapter and low voltage, the lights are safe to use and provide a consistent lighting experience.

How long is each roll of strip light?

How do I install it?
Please check our user manual for installation instructions.
Can (2) of these 65.5 ft. sets be connected together using the same power supply to make the run longer?
If you’re going to connect long runs of LED strips, it would be better to get your own power supply. DO Not do as one answered hear just double the output voltage, the LEDs will burn out in no time.
I only need about 48ft long for my project. can I cut strip short? should I cut 18ft off one strip or 9ft off each?
It’s possible for you to cut RGB strip light along the golden mark.
Is there a public api for either the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection, such that a raspberry pi could control these lights?
You can contact us for an API after buying this Alexa led light strip.
If I use a Wi-Fi power outlet to connect the adaptor when the strip is back how long can it store its last setting?
This 65.6ft Alexa strip light will remain your last setting before you turn off the light via the Wi-Fi outlet unless reset it.
If I buy a 65.6ft kit (2×32.8ft), and a 32.8ft kit (2×16.4ft), can I swap their contents to make each a 49.2ft kit (1×32.8ft plus 1×16.4ft)?
If you get too many lights on one power adapter, they’ll turn off and on and flash random colors. You have to have the right power adapter for the amount of lights you’re using. One would probably work, because you’ve essentially just shortened one circuit. The power adapter for a 32ft kit probably won’t support 49 feet of lights though.
is there a list of lighting modes? it says 64 modes but what are they?
Solid colors, fast and slow changing of colors for certain holidays/moods, brightness.
Where to cut on strip
There should be markings along the strip about every 2 or 3 inches. It should look like 4 copper ovals with a line through them.
Can I splice this so I can use with a wall switch? Will it still have the remote-control capability?
Yes, you can control the light by wall switch (3 buttons on), remote, and the Govee Home app.
Can you move them after you place the strip. Say if you’re moving houses?
It is possible, but a very delicate process. These lights are taped with adhesive to the surfaces. To remove them, you would need to be very delicate not to break them.
How many times can u cut them??
You can cut them as many times as you want, as long as you have a power source for each strip you cut.
