BTF-LIGHTING RGBW RGB+Natural White SK6812 (Similar WS2812B) 16.4ft 5m 60LEDs/Pixels/m Individually Addressable Flexible 4 Colors in 1 LED Dream Color LED Strip White PCB IP30 Non-Waterproof DC5V

These are pretty cheap strips, but because they're RGBW, the brightness and colour accuracy is surprisingly good. Because they're the 5v variants, they're ideal to use as 1m lengths and run quite cool. Heck, you can drive a 1m length directly from an ESP32 without external power, even at full brightness- this makes them ideal for WLED fun and games. If you look around on Amazon, you can find aluminium ducting with diffuser strips too, which you can slide these into, which makes it a lot easier to mount them discretely out of the way for "magic" lighting. With WLED on ESP32 driving these and talking to Home Assistant, you can easily have centrally controlled lighting with all sorts of interesting effects- for a fraction of the cost of various poorly-supported off the shelf options. It's a lot easier than you'd expect, for the casual tinkerer. TL;DR- these are good strips with well-supported chipsets. They're easy to drive and have reasonable colour accuracy and brightness. At this price, they're well worth having to play with.

Great product, used with WLED Quin Dig-Uno controller, separated and soldered. Although soldered with thick wires (1.5mm2) was difficult and break but due to length of cable, but I don't advise to use the thin DC cables if have 1m supply DC cable Strip has weatherproof silicon cover, so it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor application. Highly recommended for DIY fans!

I used these to customise some old plaster wall lights and bring them back to life. Connected to an ESP32 development board running WLED these LED strips are easy to program and have an excellent colour consistency. From warm white to cold white, and mixed with the RGB LEDs the output is stunning. Add in some WLED effects and they have created a really unique feature light in our home.

Bought these lights for a DIY Ambilight project. Originally bought WS2812b strip from the same company, but wasn’t entirely happy with the whites from the basic RGB strip. Definitely happy with the upgrade. This RGBW (cool) strip really does a great job across all aspects. Adheres well, LED’s are nice and bright. Strip comes with connectors already attached at both ends. All in all. Decent quality LED strip.

Been using BTF as a source of good value LED lights for many years, either from other suppliers and now a few times from amazon, as they're mostly in stock and UK dispatched. The quality of the LEDS are of good value/price. They're certaintly not the best or but definately not the worst, all dependson your application, environment and how you run them. Using clean power supplies, not running them hard and cooling helps a lot. Case in point, I've got a set of BTF WS281b strips (8m), housed in aluminium profiles, installed outside, controlled via wled and pir sensors. They've been running for nearly 2 years without problems. Of course this is timed and sensed illumination, not constantly on but have have endured all weathers and done well. I'm doing a slight upgrade using the SK6812 for better white light colour, with its dedicated white led. Hopefully these last a few years too.

We had some issues with the product, however the seller was great and communicated with us easily! Thank you for sorting the issue out!

Coupled to a Wled controller, this is a good LED strip for RGB addressing. The pitch is quiet wide but still provides a difused light when mounted behind a TV for example.

I have bought about 20 strips (SK6812 RGBWW) from BTF over a few years, all from AliExpress and have been excellent. I needed one urgently for an installation so paid double here on Amazon for next day delivery. I soldered it up and installed to aluminium strips, fed cables through the wall, and fixed the aluminium strip to screw clips. However when I powered up, I get a couple of pixels that are solid blue and red. I paid £48.99 - very expensive but I trusted the brand BTF Lighting so didn’t mind as I needed this to be reliable- but this is not what I got! A lot of wasted time and it was very expensive as well!

These are very good RGBW LEDs. The value of the embedded white LED cannot be overstated as it vastly improves the light quality when set to a white. They are individually adressable making them very attractive, although they are very power hungry. Would recomend for anyone wanting good quality LEDs.

Los colores se ven muy bien incluso se puede usar xon otros controladores y funciona muy bien!

Ich habe den SK6812 LED-Stripe in Kombination mit dem WLED Controller von cod.m und meinem Loxone-System im Einsatz und bin insgesamt sehr zufrieden mit dem Produkt. Der Stripe macht einen hochwertigen Eindruck und lässt sich problemlos in ein bestehendes Loxone Smart-Home-System integrieren. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich die Flexibilität bei der Programmierung. Mit dem WLED Controller kann man mühelos Effekte wie Lauflichter und andere dynamische Lichtspiele realisieren. In meinem konkreten Anwendungsfall habe ich den Stripe so konfiguriert, dass er bei Bewegung und Torsteuerung verschiedene Signale gibt: Ein rotes Lauflicht zeigt an, wenn das Tor fährt, nach Beendigung der Fahrt wechselt das Licht kurzzeitig auf grün, und bei längerer Endposition und Bewegungserkennung sorgen weiße Lichtspots für zusätzliche Beleuchtung. Diese Visualisierungen sind nicht nur praktisch, sondern auch ein echter Hingucker. Darüber hinaus sind die Möglichkeiten mit dem Stripe nahezu unbegrenzt. Von statischen Farben bis hin zu komplexen Lichtshows ist alles möglich. Die Farben sind kräftig und gleichmäßig verteilt, und auch die Helligkeit überzeugt. Dank der einfachen Ansteuerung über den WLED Controller in Verbindung mit Loxone ist die Konfiguration schnell und unkompliziert. Insgesamt kann ich den SK6812 LED-Stripe uneingeschränkt empfehlen, insbesondere wenn man Wert auf eine hochwertige Verarbeitung und flexible Einsatzmöglichkeiten legt. Ich würde ihn jederzeit wieder kaufen und empfehle ihn gerne weiter, wenn jemand nach einem zuverlässigen LED-Stripe fragt.

I've been purchasing the BTF-LIGHTING RGBW SK6812 LED strips for various projects and I must say, they never disappoint. The pixel density is fantastic, allowing for detailed color displays, and the brightness level of the strip is just stellar. Over the time, I've bought at least 50 of these strips, and the consistency in quality keeps me coming back for more. What stands out is the quality of LEDs. They have proved to be reliable and defect-free, which is crucial for the lighting projects I work on. The individual addressability of the LEDs is a feature that I appreciate a lot, it allows for a myriad of color combinations and animations, making my projects look lively and captivating. The energy efficiency when lighting up a single pure white light is a thoughtful feature, especially in scenarios where I want to manage power consumption while maintaining bright illumination. The chainable design is convenient for extending or customizing the length of the strip to fit specific project requirements. This LED strip has become a go-to for me, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone in need of high-quality, reliable, and vibrant lighting solutions.

Bin sehr zufrieden mit der LED strip
