Customer reviews for 8 ft. LED RGB White Color Changing Tape Light
8 ft. LED RGB White Color Changing Tape Light
RibbonFlex Pro Custom Color RGB LED tape lighting transforms spaces like no other lighting can. Add creative color lighting to tray ceilings, coves, under cabinets, architectural elements and more. High performance RGB LEDs can produce an endless array of colors including shades of white making it exceptionally versatile for creative accent lighting. Use a color controller to select a static color and brightness level of your choice, or create color changing scenes and effects. Ultra thin and flexible (measuring just over 3/8 in. wide by 1/8 in. thick), it works where other lighting canât. Designed for custom installations, RGB LED lighting is highly configurable and can be cut to size every 4 in. or easily linked together to create longer lengths of lighting. 3M high-bond adhesive tape backing makes installation as easy as peel-and-stick. Requires an RGB LED controller and a 12 Volt DC power supply, each sold separately.

We had this product installed by an electrician and in any area over 6ft we have drastic color shift. I bought the colored LEDs versus the white to allow me to select the warmness of the lights. Instead my lighting is pinkish on one end and greenish on the other end. There were also a few bad spots in the center that had to be swapped out but nothing seems to correct the color shift. I wish I would have just installed the white. (They also flicker if on the lower dim settings).
Pros: Easy to Assemble, Well Made, Eco-Friendly, Very Bright
Cons: Appearance
No, I do not recommend this product.

I've read about and seen LED lighting for some time now and knew that's what I wanted in my new office. Searching the net I came across Armacost at HomeDepot and I quickly knew I found a winner. But I had no idea it would be that good! This lighting is so good I've been able to remove my separate task lights. Besides being able to dim the lights and change their color if installed per their recommendations these lights cast no shadows. The spread precision and quality is beyond my wildest dreams. I am a Photoshop user and not having any shadows anywhere in my work area is critical. Heck - I don't even need my back-lit keyboard anymore. Armacost you rock!
Pros: Easy to Assemble, Functional, Well Made, Unique, Fast / Speed, Lots of Features, Eco-Friendly, Looks Great, Stylish, Very Bright, Good Size & Weight, Nice Design
Yes, I recommend this product.

We bought the RGB LED tape for undercabinet lighting, as well as the warm bright white LED tape. We ended up using the GRB LED in our bar area of the kitchen cabinets, and it's perfect for that location!
As part of kitchen remodel, our electrician hard-wired this in. I liked the 'white' color in the "warm bright white" LED tape better because it was brighter, and the color was warmer than what can be achieved by setting the RGB LED to the white color option.
The best part of LED in general is that the light is very bright, there are no large, hot, bulky lights peeking from under the cabinet, and it's energy efficient. We will be buying more of these in our bathroom remodel!
Pros: Functional, Unique, Eco-Friendly, Looks Great, Stylish, Very Bright, Good Size & Weight, Nice Design

We installed these in our kitchen as over/under cabinet lighting. Originally while redoing our kitchen I planned to install puck lights and had even purchased them for my electrician. However, I started reading reviews online and it seemed like everyone had problems with them and in general disliked them.
I had heard about this type of LED tape lighting from my electrician, but had thought it would be too expensive or maybe not bright enough. I am in gratitude for the reviews on this site that helped me change my mind in the middle of the night, hours before the electrician arrived, and have him wire for installation of these lights instead.
THESE ARE SO AWESOME! First, they are thin strips of tape with teeny lights on them. I have no idea how so much light and so many different colors can come from these strips of tape. It's magic. I don't know.
You simply peel off the paper on the back of the tape, stick it to whereever you want it applied (which could be anywhere - cabinets like us, stairways, counters, bookshelves, I don't know... anywhere!) and hook them into the wires that your electrician will have sticking out of the walls for you. You can cut and reconnect the tape pieces together to make them longer or shorter, you can have them all plug into one power switch somewhere and turn them on and off easily...and I don't think I'm really good at explaining this... I just promise it's cool and you'll love it WAY better than puck lights (according to all the other people reviewing on this site).
So while regular LED tape lights are awesome (I assume), these particular ones are extra awesome because while they can be regular old white light, you can also change their color via remote control to be red, green, blue, yellow, purple, orange, turquoise, pink, etc, etc... Do you know how fun it is to change the lights in your kitchen to electric blue while watching a movie in the adjoining family room? Do you know how cool the neighbor kids will think your house is? You can also adjust modes with the controller we have to fade in and out between colors, adjust the the brightness/dim level, change how fast it rotates. I just can't wait to have a party now.
On top of all of this, the Armacost customer service (the people who make this product) is excellent. They have replied to me with detailed help by phone and through email with every question or concern I've had. (Just google their website, and contact them directly instead of Home Depot customer service, as that worked best for me.)They are way above and beyond. If you have any question about installing these or making them work right (as you or your electrician might, because it's sort of new), don't worry. They are a very good company and will help you out immediately.
So anyway, these are AWESOME. I LOVE THEM! Since everyone else's bad reviews of the puck lights and good reviews of the LED tape light led me to my happy multi colored cool kitchen, I wanted to give back and tell you to get them for your house as well. Also, I was so impressed with Armacost as a company, I think everyone should buy their stuff from them. Because seriously, most customer service super stinks. And these guys had a dude calling my cell phone the morning that I emailed for help, and walked my electrician through what to do. They also shipped to me days before the rest of my order from Home Depot came, even though I placed one big order all together. They are just fast and helpful.
Enjoy your super cool new lights! You're welcome!!!

I chose RGB not because I want a colorful bedroom. It's because I want more white light choices for different time of the day. This RGB indeed offers two white color choices - regular white and candlelight white. This product is easy to install, plus Armacost is super helpful answering my questions. I also recommend visiting their website as they have other cool stuff.

Found this product to be very easy to install and tech support was very helpful with specific questions. Go with the RGB LED tape - the colors are such fun! Am setting my kitchen up with three controllers, will do red-white-blue for the 4th of July, red-green-white for Christmas, pink-blue-green or yellow-pink-green for Spring, orange-red-yellow for Thanksgiving, plan to have some great fun with it all!

Lights are very bright, much brighter than most of the competing products I have tried. Note that you have to buy power supply and controller separately...driving the total price well above these other products.
Pros: Easy to Assemble, Very Bright
