We just set up the lights and they look fantastic! Easy install. We got the additional brackets as well. My kids love the lights and the color options are so fun! Can’t wait to test it out in the Canadian winter months

This Govee pro is an amazing lighting system. It’s so easy to install and the instructions were simple and well laid out. I liked the fact that it comes with a wide variety of connectors and extensions to go from one level of roof area to another. I opted to spend a little more to make the job perfect so I bought 1/2” speaker wire channel (on Amazon) 17” long, to put between each light puck. A little more wrk and $$$ but well worth to make the job look professional. I used a peice of 2×4 to put each puck 3 1/2” from the back wall and the light reflection is absolutely perfect at that distance. I would recommend this lighting system to anyone looking to spruce up the looks of their home.

Thsea are such cool lights. I bought these last summer with the hope of installing them before Christmas. In the past I have always had to climb onto my roof to install Christmas lights. It was such a chore, and like medium dangerous. Well long story short I broke my leg in October (luckily not falling off of the roof) and did not get a chance to install these until earlier this year, and man I missed out last Christmas!
The installations process does take some time but is very straightforward as long as you plan ahead. The adhesive pads stick extremely well to our vinyl soffits and haven’t shown any signs of budging all summer… a very hot humid summer so far. I love that the kit came with splices and jumpers to make it easier to install segments in all sorts of roof configurations, granted we didn’t need any of that since we have a very simple ranch style house, but I could see it being invaluable for some.
The application to control the lights does have a bit of a learning curve, but it didn’t take me too long to figure out how to design custom scenes and schedules after a bit of fiddling around with it. You can literally go light by light if you want and set everything manually or there are a bunch of fun pre-installed scenes available as well.
Overall the whole kit feels extremely high quality and I expect it should last a very long time. Currently it has only been a few months, but I will definitely update this review in the future if necessary. Everyone loved our 4th of July red white and blue lights, but I can’t wait for Halloween and Christmas! All I know is I am probably going to be buying a lot more Govee products in the future.

The Govee Pro Lights are easy to install and look awesome. After installing, they look like professionally installed lighting. What I liked about the Pro Lighting is the wiring can be spliced and extended to extend length. The mounting tape is very sticky. I also ordered and added third party brackets to the lights to secure to the soffit guaranteeing they will not fall off. Once this was installed I did not want to go back up on a ladder to re-secure. It is stated that once the tape is secured they will stay up; but to me there is always that possibility they could because of weather conditions. Highly recommend!!!!

10/10 recommend. Easy to install, the light options are endless, and the app is so user friendly! This will be something I recommend to family and friends! You do need an additional piece for the power box to make sure it doesn’t get wreaked with weather but can pick it up from a hardware store! Love these lights

Lights came well packaged. I laid them all out in the house and tested and measured everything before mounting them. Quality seems good but I bought the extra warranty anyway. The kit had splicing ends and 3 good extensions that came in handy. Mounted them up at 10cm from the house (to the light body). This seems to be a good distance to get the effect on the wall. The kit could use more of the flat wire mounts. We ran short and bought some cable mounts from Home Depot. I really like the look and the effects. The app could use some fine tuning and the on/off timer is out to lunch.
Hey Govee, I saw on Etsy some guys 3D printing mounting brackets for the “Pro” lights. You guys should be selling your own version. I would buy them. I really am impressed with the end result and I might buy some more….
Update: 2 months of use. Some light colors are now dim. Working with Govee to fix. Communication is very difficult. Update: Feb 2025 – Govee sent me a new controller, no charge. The problem is fixed. Working good. I have asked them if I may purchase a spare controller……

For now, my review is limited to the install. I will update my review once I have been able to use them for a period of time. Initially, I was frustrated with the lack of information. I wanted to order everything needed to do the install so I wasn’t in a position where I started and then had to order more stuff to complete the job. I had a few areas where I expected to splice, and it wasn’t clear as to what is in the box.
The box includes the lights (9 strands), the power adapter, the controller, 3 connector kids, 2 short extension cables, 2 longer extension cables, extra adhesive pads, and plastic cable clips with screws. I thought I would need to purchase a connector kit (which was not available for purchase). Fortunately, there are some in the box.
A few things to point out. The plastic clips with screws are not good. First, there are not enough. The included screws are completely useless. It comes with several pouches, each with 7 or 8 sets. With each pouch, 2 or 3 screws would be bad. They do not screw into the soffit easily. The screws are so cheap that the strip. Several of them had the head break off the screw when installing. Lastly, these are not likely something you want to use as a permanent solution, as they will likely rust after a few months. If you are looking for a ‘permanent’ solution, I would get better stainless steel screws.
The power adapter is clearly labeled as indoor use only. I have seen this from other reviewers as well. I expect that if you install this outdoors, it will fail. The controller, which installs between the power adapter and the first strand, is not labeled as indoor/outdoor. I’m going to assume it’s indoor-only as well.
The lights come with adhesive on each light. I have read reviews where folks have paid installers and were disappointed the lights started to fall after a short time. They then had to pay the installer a second/third time to do the install. Well duh! I would not expect to use adhesive outdoors.
I was able to splice my lights a few times successfully – it was a painless process. Be sure to have the right tools.
The lights are bright and look great. You can connect to Apple Home, but functionality is limited. You can turn on/off and select a color. However, 95% of the features are going to be controlled via the Govee app. My goal is to control the on/off scheduling via Apple automations. I prefer to keep my scheduling all in one place. I will update my review later with the results.

AMAZING LIGHTS!!! Super easy to install, only thing I recommend is getting wire screw holders to screw into the house because the stickers don’t hold up with the heat or snow, it’s better to secure the lights with a screw attachment. They sell them at Home Depot in the electrical aisle. Other than that they are amazing, thousands of choices of designs and colors that will last a lifetime! Remote controlled by an app on your phone, connects easily to your wife. Funnest lights on the whole block!

The Govee Permanent Outdoor Lights Pro (200ft) have been a fantastic addition to our home. They look amazing and completely changed the feel of the exterior, both day and night. We loved them so much that we ended up buying more Govee lights—the café lights for our pool patio and even the Christmas tree lights. Everything works great together, and the quality has been consistent across all of them. The app is easy to use, the lighting options are fun and customizable, and the lights really make our home stand out for everyday use and holidays. Once they were up, they instantly became one of our favorite upgrades. If you’re on the fence, these are absolutely worth it. We’re officially a Govee household now.

I absolutely love my Govee Permanent Outdoor Lights Pro! I had the 200ft set professionally installed (there is no way I could have installed these myself), and my electrician friend did an amazing job. Ever since they went up, I’ve received so many compliments from neighbors. These lights really elevate the look of the house — bright, clean, and customizable with tons of fun settings.
I bought them during Black Friday when they were 50% off, and honestly, that made the purchase even sweeter. Definitely wait for a sale if you can — they’re worth it at full price, but the discount made it an easy yes.
The RGBIC lighting effects are gorgeous, the app is simple to use, and the 75 scene modes give you endless options for holidays, everyday lighting, and accent colors. They give the house such a polished, modern look both during the day and at night.
I also purchased the Amazon warranty just in case the lights don’t hold up long-term, but so far everything has been perfect. I’m extremely happy with this purchase and would recommend these lights to anyone wanting a clean, permanent solution for outdoor lighting.
They look fantastic, and I couldn’t be happier!

This light set is absolutely outstanding . If you want to or are as OCD as I am & go out of your way to hide (fish)the extension wires & splices , your install will be well worth it . A bigger plus , installing wire molding between the lights to hide the wires not only looks professional but also helps to keep the HOA police off your A$$ . Part of the fun of controlling these lights is experimenting with the app & setting up your own programs . The App itself is easy to use & there are a few YouTube videos online to aid you setting up programs .
After playing with different lighting effects for XMas & shutting them down 14 days after the holiday (HOA) rules , I fired them up for a couple of days around St Patrick’s Day & they are still as great as the day/days it took me to install them . The colors are crisp , clean & as bright as you might dare to make them . As previously mentioned I went way overboard installing them by fishing the wires through soffits , walls & siding . The wire mold install in the soffits & front porch ceiling was easy but time consuming & I did use screws to attach the molding instead of the adhesive . Our soffits are perforated vinyl . A note & lesson to the future installing public is to basically set every light up on the ground & attach extension cables where basically needed . Making sure the system as laid out works before it’s installed . On the 150′ & 200′ boxes don’t be afraid to order after market wire because my project worked just fine with multiple jumpers . Also they claimed not to exceed I believe 12′ jumpers & longer ones worked . If you can set the system up without cutting & splicing you’ll have done a better job then I did . Also if you need to work on a metal roof like I needed to , use a safety line . The bottom line is this product is freaking amazing & you don’t need to enjoy it from a hospital bed .

I absolutely love these lights. They’ve been installed for about five months now, and I haven’t had a single issue. I debated for a long time between the standard version and the Pro version. I’m glad I chose the Pros because I can extend and splice the lights without voiding the warranty, which made the installation much more flexible. Installation was straightforward but definitely time‑consuming. I recommend planning for two good‑weather days. You can finish in one day depending on your roof and ladder setup, but it’s worth taking your time. Make sure every light is secured with a clamp and screw—especially in high‑wind areas. I added an extra clamp before and after each light in those spots. Splicing was easy thanks to the included connectors. They made it simple to extend the line or jump gaps where needed. Just be sure to splice in the middle between two lights, since the connectors need a few inches of wire to work with. Once everything was installed, the results were incredible. My neighbors constantly comment on how great the lights look. I live in a rural area with no streetlights, and even at 25% brightness they’re plenty bright. At full brightness, my entire lawn lights up. The app takes a little time to get used to, but setting schedules is quick and easy. There are tons of pre‑made lighting options—just tap one and the lights instantly change. My favorite feature is the Shared Space, where other users upload their custom sequences with video previews. It’s perfect if you’re still learning how to design your own. Overall, these lights have been fantastic, and I’d absolutely buy them again.

These are high quality permanent multi-color, bright and programable decorative lights. They were easy to install considering I was up and down a ladder for nearly 5 hours, but following the instructions made installation a cinch. The 3M adhesive pads made placing the individual lights a snap, but be careful if the temperature gets too cool or the humidity too high. The last dozen or so lights had trouble sticking as it got dark and cooler. Applying each light with the adhesive pads required keeping pressure on it for about 30 seconds. Then the longer they’re attached, the stronger the adhesive bond becomes. Our lights have been up for 5 days now. Other great features in this kit were that several splice kits and extension wiresbwere included. I wish I would have known that before purchasing though. If you’re not good at stripping wires for splicing, a wire stripper tool would be helpful. Look for one for this type and size of wire. Once installed controlling and operation is really cool using the smartphone app. We’ve been having fun and keeping our neighbors guessing by changing the light colors and patterns daily. These Govee lights are not cheap, but the quality makes them worth the price, and the Pro series lights allow you to cut, splice, and extend and arrange them better. Definitely plan and measure your installation before ordering.

I bought these after my neighbour had them on his house for the last couple of years and he was telling me how pleased he was with them. They took some effort to put up, as I bought some light brackets (also from Amazon) and screwed each light into the soffit. I just used a short piece of 2×4 to measure how far to place them away from the outside walls. They look discreet when they’re off during the day and they look great at night. We’ll see just how “permanent” these light are, and I’m a little worried about support for the app should anything ever happen to the company in the future, as that’s the only way to control the light colours/patterns. For now, I’m glad to not have to get onto the roof to put up and take down Christmas lights every year.

This Govee pro is an amazing lighting system. It’s so easy to install and the instructions were simple and well laid out. I liked the fact that it comes with a wide variety of connectors and extensions to go from one level of roof area to another.
I opted to spend a little more to make the job perfect so I bought 1/2” speaker wire channel (on Amazon) 17” long, to put between each light puck. A little more wrk and $$$ but well worth to make the job look professional. I used a peice of 2×4 to put each puck 3 1/2” from the back wall and the light reflection is absolutely perfect at that distance. I would recommend this lighting system to anyone looking to spruce up the looks of their home.

The Govee Permanent Outdoor Lights Pro (200ft) have been a fantastic addition to our home. They look amazing and completely changed the feel of the exterior, both day and night.
We loved them so much that we ended up buying more Govee lights—the café lights for our pool patio and even the Christmas tree lights. Everything works great together, and the quality has been consistent across all of them.
The app is easy to use, the lighting options are fun and customizable, and the lights really make our home stand out for everyday use and holidays. Once they were up, they instantly became one of our favorite upgrades.
If you’re on the fence, these are absolutely worth it. We’re officially a Govee household now.

Lights came well packaged. I laid them all out in the house and tested and measured everything before mounting them. Quality seems good but I bought the extra warranty anyway. The kit had splicing ends and 3 good extensions that came in handy. Mounted them up at 10cm from the house (to the light body). This seems to be a good distance to get the effect on the wall.
The kit could use more of the flat wire mounts. We ran short and bought some cable mounts from Home Depot.
I really like the look and the effects. The app could use some fine tuning and the on/off timer is out to lunch.
Hey Govee, I saw on Etsy some guys 3D printing mounting brackets for the “Pro” lights. You guys should be selling your own version. I would buy them.
I really am impressed with the end result and I might buy some more….
Update: 2 months of use. Some light colors are now dim. Working with Govee to fix. Communication is very difficult.
Update: Feb 2025 – Govee sent me a new controller, no charge. The problem is fixed. Working good.
I have asked them if I may purchase a spare controller……

Love our Govee lights !!! After purchasing, installing ,removing and returning (6 hours later) a cheap knock off – we bit the bullet and splurged on Govee – the term you get what you pay for is true for this item.
Govee was easy to install, app is very user friendly , zero connection issues. Our home is stunning !! Love this product

I absolutely love my Govee Permanent Outdoor Lights Pro! I had the 200ft set professionally installed (there is no way I could have installed these myself), and my electrician friend did an amazing job. Ever since they went up, I’ve received so many compliments from neighbors. These lights really elevate the look of the house — bright, clean, and customizable with tons of fun settings.
I bought them during Black Friday when they were 50% off, and honestly, that made the purchase even sweeter. Definitely wait for a sale if you can — they’re worth it at full price, but the discount made it an easy yes.
The RGBIC lighting effects are gorgeous, the app is simple to use, and the 75 scene modes give you endless options for holidays, everyday lighting, and accent colors. They give the house such a polished, modern look both during the day and at night.
I also purchased the Amazon warranty just in case the lights don’t hold up long-term, but so far everything has been perfect. I’m extremely happy with this purchase and would recommend these lights to anyone wanting a clean, permanent solution for outdoor lighting.
They look fantastic, and I couldn’t be happier!

This light set is absolutely outstanding . If you want to or are as OCD as I am & go out of your way to hide (fish)the extension wires & splices , your install will be well worth it . A bigger plus , installing wire molding between the lights to hide the wires not only looks professional but also helps to keep the HOA police off your A$$ .
Part of the fun of controlling these lights is experimenting with the app & setting up your own programs . The App itself is easy to use & there are a few YouTube videos online to aid you setting up programs .
After playing with different lighting effects for XMas & shutting them down 14 days after the holiday (HOA) rules , I fired them up for a couple of days around St Patrick’s Day & they are still as great as the day/days it took me to install them . The colors are crisp , clean & as bright as you might dare to make them .
As previously mentioned I went way overboard installing them by fishing the wires through soffits , walls & siding . The wire mold install in the soffits & front porch ceiling was easy but time consuming & I did use screws to attach the molding instead of the adhesive . Our soffits are perforated vinyl .
A note & lesson to the future installing public is to basically set every light up on the ground & attach extension cables where basically needed . Making sure the system as laid out works before it’s installed .
On the 150′ & 200′ boxes don’t be afraid to order after market wire because my project worked just fine with multiple jumpers . Also they claimed not to exceed I believe 12′ jumpers & longer ones worked . If you can set the system up without cutting & splicing you’ll have done a better job then I did .
Also if you need to work on a metal roof like I needed to , use a safety line . The bottom line is this product is freaking amazing & you don’t need to enjoy it from a hospital bed .

Awesome product. Had to purchase additional Govee extension wire and few Y splitter cables to split the lights into several different sections but end result turned out great! Love the app and presets that come with it ! Easy to use and plenty of options. Worked like magic…

I absolutely love these lights. They’ve been installed for about five months now, and I haven’t had a single issue.
I debated for a long time between the standard version and the Pro version. I’m glad I chose the Pros because I can extend and splice the lights without voiding the warranty, which made the installation much more flexible.
Installation was straightforward but definitely time‑consuming. I recommend planning for two good‑weather days. You can finish in one day depending on your roof and ladder setup, but it’s worth taking your time. Make sure every light is secured with a clamp and screw—especially in high‑wind areas. I added an extra clamp before and after each light in those spots.
Splicing was easy thanks to the included connectors. They made it simple to extend the line or jump gaps where needed. Just be sure to splice in the middle between two lights, since the connectors need a few inches of wire to work with.
Once everything was installed, the results were incredible. My neighbors constantly comment on how great the lights look. I live in a rural area with no streetlights, and even at 25% brightness they’re plenty bright. At full brightness, my entire lawn lights up.
The app takes a little time to get used to, but setting schedules is quick and easy. There are tons of pre‑made lighting options—just tap one and the lights instantly change. My favorite feature is the Shared Space, where other users upload their custom sequences with video previews. It’s perfect if you’re still learning how to design your own.
Overall, these lights have been fantastic, and I’d absolutely buy them again.

These are high quality permanent multi-color, bright and programable decorative lights. They were easy to install considering I was up and down a ladder for nearly 5 hours, but following the instructions made installation a cinch. The 3M adhesive pads made placing the individual lights a snap, but be careful if the temperature gets too cool or the humidity too high. The last dozen or so lights had trouble sticking as it got dark and cooler. Applying each light with the adhesive pads required keeping pressure on it for about 30 seconds. Then the longer they’re attached, the stronger the adhesive bond becomes. Our lights have been up for 5 days now. Other great features in this kit were that several splice kits and extension wiresbwere included. I wish I would have known that before purchasing though. If you’re not good at stripping wires for splicing, a wire stripper tool would be helpful. Look for one for this type and size of wire. Once installed controlling and operation is really cool using the smartphone app. We’ve been having fun and keeping our neighbors guessing by changing the light colors and patterns daily. These Govee lights are not cheap, but the quality makes them worth the price, and the Pro series lights allow you to cut, splice, and extend and arrange them better. Definitely plan and measure your installation before ordering.

I bought these after my neighbour had them on his house for the last couple of years and he was telling me how pleased he was with them. They took some effort to put up, as I bought some light brackets (also from Amazon) and screwed each light into the soffit. I just used a short piece of 2×4 to measure how far to place them away from the outside walls. They look discreet when they’re off during the day and they look great at night. We’ll see just how “permanent” these light are, and I’m a little worried about support for the app should anything ever happen to the company in the future, as that’s the only way to control the light colours/patterns. For now, I’m glad to not have to get onto the roof to put up and take down Christmas lights every year.
