Lightstrip Color Zones, Wi-Fi Smart LED Light Strip, Full Color with Polychrome Technology™, No Bridge Required, Works with Alexa, Hey Google, HomeKit and Siri, 80" Kit

Bought it in March 2022 and exactly 2 years later now (March 2024) it’s broken. Suddenly started flashing multiple colours and stopped syncing. What’s mad is that it wasn’t just one unit but two at the same time even though one was under my tv stand another was behind my computer screen.

It is very difficult to find any information on the packaging about the product model number, serial, etc. This becomes particularly frustrating once you have an issue and start discussing it with Lifx support. All my other wireless devices connected just fine, Lifx worked on and off from the beginning. Then the connection could not be established and that was that. No matter what I tried the lights don't work as intended. For the price asked and all the hype it is not living up to the bare minimum expectations.

Non UK plug

UPDATE: Last week (10/30/2022) there was a firmware update for the LIFX Lightstrip. I am happy to say that after installing this update, and several days of use, the lightstrip is working flawlessly. It is remaining fully connected at all times. It is responsive not just in the app, but also through HomeKit and Alexa. As this is working superbly, I have changed my rating from 2 stars to 5. I recently got this light strip to use as bias lighting in my home office. Set up was easy, and they connected well with both HomeKit and Alexa. After a couple of days, they stopped staying connected to my wifi. They are in the same room as the router. In order to use the lights, I need to reset them to reconnect them every single time I want to turn them on or off. I was very disappointed considering the price point and the quality of the strip itself. The lights are bright, and the colors are vibrant. Since I have this installed already, I may get a smart plug just to turn it on and off since the plug is in an odd place. Overall, mostly disappointed with what could be a great device.

Really really good lights

La verdad LIFX me había gustado porque no requieres puente como con Phillips Hue y he comprado dos paquetes de tira de luces y AMBOS SE DESCOMPUSIERON. Los quiero para decoración de mi cuarto para cuando hago streams y unas semanas todo fue jijijí jajajá hasta que un día se la tira partió en dos zonas de colores. Intenté resetearlo mil veces desde el propio aparato, luego desde la app y sin éxito. Escribí directo al software de LIFX y según ellos era elegible para un reemplazo que enviaron pero nunca llegó. NO COMPREN LAS TIRAS LED. Luego constantemente hay que resetear la conexión con la PC porque se desconecta y en fin. Es un show. Una youtube (les debo el nombre jeje pero escribanme y les paso el video) confirmó igual que LIFX solo le trajeron problemas y pues usa Hue aunque carísimo pero SIEMPRE funciona. A ver qué tal.

The product is great however.......... It is not a UK version and does not come with a UK mains plug. This comes with a European plug. A Travel adapter was included but there is no mention of this in the description. It makes the power plugs / adapters big and bulky so not impressed at all. I have another Lifx light strip I purchased a few years back and that has a UK power supply so they are available.
