$5 RGB LED Strip - Five Below Review - Budget Buys Ep. 15

Today I take a look at an RGB color changing LED strip from Five Below. I've been contacted by Amazon sellers in the past to take a look at something like this, but the catch was that I had to pretty much follow a script for the video. Now I can review one of these without having to do anything sketchy. :D

I gotta admit this brand is awesome. I had the vibe led light bulb for 6 months or so and it still works perfectly. Yesterday, I got this led light strip and it’s amazing!

1: really short
2: adhesive sucks

I bought these for my kids bunk beds. I Love them works great for the money. I lost the remote. I took it and hid it from the kids so they wouldnt lose it. And j forgot where I hid it. I may have to buy another set, the remote works for all of them.

Ive had this thing for like 3 months, note the adhesive SUCKS on this thing, so I got some masking tape and slapped it on the non-light areas behind my table it it works like a dream. The lights are fairly bright also. i'd rate it a 9/10
