Review: I bought two light strips (one for bedroom, one for living room) and two extensions. They work beautifully! Works well on HomeKit, just add the accessory and put it ‘in’ the correct room, you can ask Siri (on phone, iPad, Mac or HomePod) to turn on/off/up/down the lights. If it’s a HomePod it knows which light is in the same room so only affects that one unless you say ‘turn off all lights’ or ‘turn on bedroom lights’. On phone it’ll ask which room you’re referring to. In the eve all you can change the speed the lights change - the default is an instant change but you can set it to be quick or moderate which is a bit less jarring. Set up scenes in the Home app and you can have them come ion or go off automatically. Handy if you’re away or, like me, you want to use them as an alarm clock system - mine come on very low (5%) and my HomePods start playing music at a low level. One note - if you put them around a mirror or below a shelf, put them right back against the wall. I stupidly ran them down the middle of the frame instead of the back and it affects how the light bounces off the wall. It’s very tricky to peel up the sticky tape without removing it from the light strips too. All in all I highly recommend. I mostly use these rather than the led spotlights in my flat now, they only go on if I need even more light when cleaning etc.
