LED Strip Lights

LED strip lights are thin, flexible strips of LEDs that mount out of sight, behind a headboard or TV, under a shelf or around a desk, so you see an even glow rather than the bulbs. This collection covers RGB, RGBIC and neon-style strips for bedrooms and living spaces.

• RGB or RGBIC: an RGB strip shows one colour at a time along its whole length; an RGBIC strip can show several colours along the strip at once for flowing effects.
• Controls: compare remote, app and Bluetooth control, and whether the listing names a music or sound-reactive mode.
• Length and power: check the stated length, whether the strip can be cut or extended, and whether it runs from USB or a plug-in adapter.
• Mounting: most strips use adhesive backing, so stick them to a clean, dry surface. Neon-style flexible strips give a smoother line without visible dots.

For evenings, many people choose a warm white or dim amber setting where the strip offers one. For a smooth, flowing line, the Glowribbon RGBIC neon light strip is listed as flexible and dimmable with app and remote control. For behind a screen, the Viewglow RGB strip is specified for TV backgrounds and is dimmable.
