Eve Light Strip - Apple HomeKit Smart Home LED Lights Strip, Full Color Spectrum and White, 1800 Lumens

We could not be more impressed with the Eve Light Strip we purchased for our kitchen backsplash. It just works so seamlessly with all our Apple devices via Homekit. To set up the Eve we just plugged it in, opened the Homekit app on my iPhone and then scanned the QR code on the strip. That is it! We were up and running in seconds. We love that the light strip has a complete spectrum of colors programable through the app. Brightness can also be adjusted and is so easily programable for preset times of day or various life situations through Siri Shortcuts. Our Apple TV 4k can even be programmed to automatically control the lights. The color adjustment especially has been a delight to us. When we remodeled our kitchen, we were very disappointed that the new countertops were much more yellow of a white than our bright-white tiled backsplash. With the Eve Light Strip, we are able to dial in the exact warmth of light that results in the backsplash perfectly matching the color of the countertops (see photo). We couldn’t be happier. In the past we have toyed with several generic “smart home” devices that seem to just half work. This Eve is the opposite - it just works! Perfectly, seamlessly, quickly and reliably every time. The Eve is great for our under-cabinet lights in our kitchen. I am now trying to find reasons to buy some more light strips for use in other areas of our home :)

I have had the Eve Light Strip for a little over a week and I have been extremely satisfied with this product. I replaced a light strip I had on the back of my 65' TV with the Eve Light Strip. The light strip that I had been using was very inconvenient in that I had to plug it in and out of the outlet constantly. The Eve Light Strip lets me turn it on/off on my Iphone or by telling Siri. I really like the fact that I can find different light settings on the app then save that exact color to able able to switch back and forth whenever I want. The Eve app is very user friendly and it is very is to change the light strip to any color that you would like. The only complaint that I had about the product is when I first installed the Eve app it was being very glitchty and not responding to what I was changing on the light strip. It was an easy fix and I just unplugged the light strip and plugged it back in. The Eve Light Strip would be an ideal product for under cabinetry or for use in back lighting of a TV or entertainment center. I couldn't be more satisfied with this product!!

As with all things Eve, this is a very cool product that was easy to set up, has great setting options and easily connects to Apple HomeKit. I decided to finally pick up two of these kits to use underneath the kitchen cabinets in my house. Having the smart capability, I wanted a device that I could schedule and control remotely and this product works great for that. Installation was relatively easy, depending on how much of a DIY’er you are. The main issue I found was that the included double-sided tape on the light strip was quite weak overall. I literally had to run to my local hardware store to purchase a stronger double-sided tape to place on the light strip which impeded the installation time. Once I installed the heavy-duty double-sided tape, I had no issues installing these underneath our kitchen cabinets. Once of the cabinets was quite long so I had to use the extension light strip that you purchase separately. It was easy to connect and you cannot tell the connector exists by the lighting you see - it doesn’t create a dark spot in the flow of lighting - everything is even and unnoticeable. Overall smart set up was easy. Just scan the QR code and the light automatically adds itself to the Apple HomeKit. Upon first connecting, it checks for the latest firmware and installs it which takes about five minutes so smart set up is about 5-10 minutes total. The flexibility of lighting colors, shades, and auto-adaptability is awesome. You can basically set these lights up to do whatever you want, whenever you want. The lights can be set to adapt to the time of day so they automatically change from bright white to warm white throughout the day and they change brightness as well so you can’t really tell, but will have even light throughout the day. Besides the issue with the double-sided tape, I absolutely love these lights. They’ve brought a whole different feel to our kitchen space and allow us to have a nice nightlight that is inexpensive to run.

I bought the Eve Light Strip and the 2M extension to stretch across a 4M area above my front window (see the pics). Even in broad daylight, this light strip gives off a ton of light and the colors are quite vivid. At night, the strip is powerful enough to give the entire room a glow of any color. The purples give off an effect similar to a blacklight, which is exactly the kind of power I was looking for. Setup was incredible simple, and connecting the extension requires nothing other than plugging it into the end of the light strip. The unboxing and app setup couldn't have been easier, and within minutes of Amazon delivering this thing, I had it up and running. The back of the light strip has an adhesive strip that was very helpful in finding the right placement above my window treatment. The Eve app allows you to fine-tune the exact color that you want, which is pretty important to me. I chose the Eve Light Strip instead of the Philips Hue light strip simply because I didn't want to drop an addition $50 on the Hue 'Hub'. Seems silly that you need a separate piece of hardware just to get the light strip to communicate with the app. Luckly, Eve figured it out, and so far this light strip has been everything I hoped for.

Best purchase I made so far. I live in a small space where I don’t have room for a floor or table lamp in my living room. Originally I wanted to do what most do and that’s install this under the kitchen cabinets but my molding makes it difficult. So it’s either behind the TV or in the glass cabinet. The lighting is actually quite bright and you can adjust the colors and brightness. More on that later. Pairing with your iOS device. - like many apple friendly accessories you simply scan the QR code within the Home App (already in your iPhone or tablet) or you can download the Eve App if you wish. - once it gets recognized you can assign it to a room etc. And your done. Works with Siri - no more looking at your phone to change colors, turn it on or off, or adjust brightness. I mean you can if you want to but just say “hey Siri” and tell her what you want. - for example I can say, hey Siri: - turn on my living room lights. - turn my living room lights to red - turn my lights down by 50% Installing - the strip can be adjusted to the length you desire. - you can cut along the scissor mark (see pic) if you need a shorter length. - if you need a longer length you can buy an extension kit and connect it to the female end (see pic) The strip is very flexible and has adhesive tape built in. - connect the power adapter to the end of the module (white block that says “elgato” it should say “eve” but probably designed before the company changed names. Tips: Make sure you plan out where you want to install it. The adhesive is strong so be sure! This only works if you have an apple device. iPhone or iPad. Do not buy if you or whoever you’re buying it for doesn’t have an apple device.

Se conecta con el ecosistema apple de casa inteligente (Homekit), por lo que se puede gestionar desde el iPhone aun estando a kilómetros de distancia. Tiene buena iluminación y se ve de buena calidad. Lo recomiendo

Everything is good and high quality: from light itself to the controller to the power adapter and even packaging.

Me gusto que es fácil de conectar y lo único malo es el pegamento de la tira

I bought this because I focus on HomeKit but didn’t want to buy a Mini to get Thread. I’m satisfied with the colour and the response time is great. Adaptive lighting throughout the day is a joy. I had some with the adhesive sticking the the metal supports on my desk but it could be user error. I do wish there was a black cord option, but I imagine most will prefer white.
