PhanteksNEON Digital-RGB LED Strip M1 (PH-NELEDKT_M1) – 1x 1-Meter Smooth Lighting Strip, Full-Color Range, Flexible mounting

I saw these online and immediately knew I needed to try em' out. I read all of the reviews and decided that making them stick would not be a problem per se and I have lots of sticky and magnety stuff lying around.Be warned... out of the box these are a tad difficult as the design has them very tall (.5 Inches tall) and they are super flexible along that axis which is why they are perfect for a run. The difficulty is that they kind of want to do their own thing and are definitely not prone to wanting to be ruler straight or stick with the included adhesives. Also, the black portion is rubber so it is a TOTAL lint and dust magnet... but, very simply I have solved both of these problems ;)I had some Clear Report Covers with Black Binding (the ones you used in 6th grade for your book reports to get that Calvin and Hobbs A+ professional look) that I had ordered for another computer related RGB issue and I thought why not see if those would wrap around the Phanteks Neon Strip and to my surprise they fit perfectly around the Neon Strip and can be cut perfectly to size very easily (see second and third pics)... so ruler straight and no longer a rubberized dust magnet!These work fabulously with Corsair iCue software as long as you make/order an RGB to JST-SM Addressable RGB Adapter (got mine on eBay... just search for "Corsair RGB to JST-SM Addressable RGB Adapter" made by Pirate Dog Tech... an excellent and reputable seller... I bought two separately and shipping was very fast), also with Corsair iCue the colors are spot on with my Corsair branded products although these Phanteks Neon Strips are very bright you can bring them down in iCue. You just want to keep in mind that for a Corsair Node Pro or Commander Pro channel you can only have 60 leds powered so anything above that and you risk blowing the fuse in the Node Pro or Commander Pro device. In the example above I have thee RGB Strips assigned to the channel running the Phanteks Neon Strip.Other than that... the Book Cover Binding Bars allowed me to very easily super glue very small round magnets to the bottom and that puppy is staying put... I used two on each bend and four on the long run and two each on the small runs.I am super pleased with this product and it really does add flair to your RGB setup which is not easy to do but this does it.

For those who are on the fence of purchasing due to the lack of reviews, here you go!Purchasing these Phanteks neon RGB strips has to be a well spent investment if I do say so myself. The way the strips are completely connected and don’t have the spacing that traditional RGB strips have, it gives off a lovely aesthetic for your PC.Connecting it to my Aorus Z390 PRO WIFI motherboard via 5v rgb/led pin connector (VD_G for those with Gigabyte motherboard) & using the RGB 2.0 Software that Gigabyte has immediately acknowledged the strips and I was able to customise the lighting pattern to the different option within the software.For the price, Phanteks has outdone themselves once again and I will definitely recommend this to others if they want some nice RGB strips.

Pros.These look amazing. I wish more companies released lights like these designed for pc cases. The glow is nice and diluted and the colors are vivd and true. I had no issues connecting both of them to the 5v header on x570 mobo. I was able to chain both of these together and they both light up full brightness and take in all the effects on Mystic light with the only issue being rainbow mode for some reason. It comes with all the adapters you need. With any complaints I have, I will use these again due to their look.Cons.The adhesive it comes with is absolute garbage. Based on the screw cut outs, these were designed for their line of cases and to actually mount into the case with a screw using the adhesive to keep the direction while putting the screw in. The adhesive won't stick. Don't waste your time here, and go buy some high quality 3m double sided adhesive. I had some around the house so that wasn't an issue.The adapter has a strip connector half way through it. It doesn't work. I've read other complaints that share the same thoughts. The second strip won't light up and the first strip won't light up the proper color this way. Just chain them.Not enough straight brackets. Not near enough. Imo you should be placing a bracket every 3.5-4 inches to ensure all your light lines are straight. I had to cut up some different angle mounts it came with and create some straight brackets. I need to go back in and create a couple more but after a hour I'm satisfied with what I setup.

Bought these strips because I was told they are the best. Overall, The light strips are amazing. For 20 bucks not bad at all. My main issue with this purchase is the crappy mounting brackets and adhesive strips that are sent with the lights. The sticky does not stick well at all. I found at times that no matter how well the surface was prepped they would sick for about 15 minutes and fall. My PC sits right around 50 Celsius so I know its not a matter of being too hot in my case. This was super disappointing because I was not able to mount them the way I intended.Overall, I would recommend these lights due to the fact that they are so bright and easy to customize ( I use the Aura Sync APP) Something else to be mindful of with these lights, they are more meant to be seen directly. If you are looking to illuminate your case, go with the standard LED kit and not the Neon. The reason I gave 3 stars is simply due to the fact that the brackets are not great at all making installation not as easy as it should have been.

Best rgb lights ever! Had them work with Corsair ICue software.
