    Best use case: I put an LED strip along the staircase and connect it to the motion sensor above and below the staircase, so it lights up the whole staircase when people walk up or down the stairs. My mom cannot see very well in the dark and had a few injuries from walking down the stairs at night. She is very happy with the installation and felt much safer walking on the stair at night now being able to see each step she makes!

    Just for those who are going to use this review... Opard ones are great the first couple weeks of so but over time they are really poor. Keep losing connection and they just keep failing. If you try to use the strips around your bed or tv the connections keep breaking. Just avoid them at all cost!

    the best use is going around where the ceiling meets the wall, to light up a room in an interesting way.

    I would use them to do up my little brothers bedroom who has just finished his chemo therapy for cancer and he was so brave so I would really love to give him something to be happy about after months of sadness and terrifying hospital visits

    I'd use them with ittt for notifs and other information. Throw a diffusing bit of frosted acrylic over them and have their brightness set to 0 during the night, and higher when I'm awake. What's the allergen level like? from red to green it'd tell me when i wake up. how hot is it going to be? same deal. Traffic? rinse and repeat. just have little squares with a tasteful label and housing for each one, and I could still set them to flash pink when a rideshare arrives, the mail comes, when the doorbell rings, or when a timer I set goes off.

    I would use the strips in my kitchen as I only have spotlights which are always so bright and I just want something more subtle to put across the top of the cupboards
