I just purchased the Govee permanent outdoor lights which brought me to your channel after looking up "install how to". I love the idea of combining all the lights together to give a better light show. If my install goes well, I may look into getting the curtain 2, to expand my Christmas light show.
The 3M adhesive is excellent… We put ours up in August of last year, so about 16 months ago and only used the 3M tape and we’re going to add the brackets later where needed but haven’t had to yet. We also have the strip lights so the entire length of the strip has adhesive on the back. They’re on their second summer and winter in Oregon and we’ve only had maybe 4 inches of the adhesive come loose on the east side of the house that gets all of the morning sun. We also just had our house resided and painted the month before we put them up so the surfaces were new and fresh and we cleaned it with rubbing alcohol before. Not sure if that made a difference, but we haven’t had any trouble except that small section come loose. We also put them up in the rain.
I do custom led Christmas light shows. Govee is definitely for the masses or "normal" people. It's much less expensive. I like your Christmas LightShow setup! Im looking to add projection maping and facades to my xLights show. I just ran out of time for this year. I tried but it was too cold and time was too short to properly map the house with my props on it. Twinkly I hear are really good also.
Looks great! The name of the vinyl piece you purchased to hang the curtain lights is J Bead. I purchased a similar one, but ended up switching to an aluminum J-bead because it was sturdier and will be easier to remove and hang elsewhere since I don't plan and keeping it there year-round.
Awesome video. Was googling Govee and your video popped up. The lights look amazing. I have some projects I would like to work on, your tips are time saving thanks for doing the work for us 😂 🎉
Installed the GOVEE permanent lights yesterday and find myself looking to expand. I'm thinking about the 100ft. dot strand for a outline effect. The curtains look interesting also.
I started with multiples, realized I messed up, then swapped them out for the 14’ version. Hence why I’m now giving away 3 individual curtain lights haha
Amazing Video!. I just set up my govee Permanent Lights 2 and they look amazing. I 3D printed all the brackets to mount them. It was too cold for the adhesive to properly bond and it saved me the trouble of getting on a ladder twice.
Great content as always. I have the permanent lights and the 2 things of the Christmas lights. I would love to get some curtains for the garage. Your house looks great!!
I just purchased the permanent outdoor lights and been looking on you tube how many people have their set up and it led me to this video and your channel 👍🏽
Just purchased govee pro 150ft string lights for down lighting on our home. After watching this video and two others. Unfortunately, do to an injury I'm not able to install them on my own. But I have great friends and family who I will be sending this video to watch before helping me. install.
So after watching your Christmas projection mapping video, I brought an Epson laser projector 16,000 lumens due to daylight savings and summer, needed the higher outputs
Yes I’ll follow your link to get the curtain… I already just installed the govee outdoor pro… But I’ve one issue. I have to be close to them to work it… otherwise im getting no connection 😮 I thought rye app could be controlled at a reasonable distance
Omg finally someone has the same curtain lights I have. Did your lights act as one curtain right off the bat or did you have to do something different. Mine is the same as yours but my curtain acts as 3 separate curtains. And I can’t get the images you have on yours.
Okay so if you have the curtain lights 2 you have to buy the 14' kit to get the scenes I was showing. If you buy 3 individual curtain light 2's they won't function the same. The 3 can be linked but won't function the same.
Look great. Definitely want those pro light around the house will make everything really nice and the curtains almost got some last year but Definitely want some this year since I moved into my own home a few weeks ago
i just bought the govee string lights v2, only a single set with the Robot stuff. but I will say 1 set doesnt look as good as the 3 you showed on the garage. Now i have to consider buying more of them. But I thought with the singles you can still link them via the software? I could be wrong.. but anyways thinking of buying a 2 pack or maybe the 3 pack for the living room and moving a single to a bedroom. As for the clips, only really needed for outdoors as indoors it sits nicely. We also have the Twinkly Tree with 500ish lights which we love and have had now for 3 years and still working great.
Unfortunately the curtain lights 2 can’t be joined in the software to give the effects I’ve shown. They sell a specific controller in the 3 pack set that acts differently.
The pros are slightly brighter and will give you a warmer white. The 2’s have more lights per string but cooler white. It comes down to personal preference. I want the warm white. If you’re mostly using the lights for colors then it won’t matter much.
Only the Pros will recognize that you cut off some lights. The regular ones will think you still have those lights and will try to light them, which will look weird when you are doing a run through all the lights.
Super nice video. Great explanation's. Where can I find an extra extension cord for the Govee Outdoor Pro? I can only find the one's with the lights? Does anyone sell just an extension cord?
OMG, these lights are amazing. It's a funny story... i was walking through the Rona in Canada 🇨🇦 and i saw these exact same lights, but they were expensive, so i was like, buy my daughter groceries or get the lights? I had to buy groceries, of course. Too bad im in tears as you will not be doing the giveaway to those of your subscribers in Canada. Awwww😂😢😅
I believe The Hook Up uses some version of permanent under eave lights (Eufy, Govee, etc) in conjunction with a pixel controller for Christmas shows. Could be a decent solution to get the best of both worlds.
Maybe me,.,,,, but what is missing is the ability to have more than 3 screens be occupied by one screen. I have 4 and I 'should' be have an animation start at screen 1 and then continue to screen 2,3,4 resulting in one long screen, but I don't see that working that way.
Did I just see a MAGA on the curtain lights 😂😂. Amazing! I love how these lights can also be normal accent lights the rest of the year. Never have to worry about taking Christmas lights up and down anymore! Also pumped for the led light giveaway!

Twinkly I hear are really good also.
I hear you. I have the opposite problem where it's too muggy and too many mosquitos to map haha
Excited to get my light up today. Ill be the only one with Govee lights in my neighborhood.
This looks like it would be so simple to set up an amazing light show!
It really is!

Would you happen to have a link to the aluminum bead that you used to hang the curtain?
Used the Govee Curtain Lights 2 and the Govee Icicles for the first time and we love the look and programing options.
They're excellent! The icicles add so much.
How did you handle the Garage door Opening and closing? The power cord for the garage door, etc?
I just bought my first Govee light sets. Love them. Would be glad to add to them with your giveaway. Thanks for doing it!
When I saw your video, i just ordered my curtain lights. Excited to get them installed right before Christmas. Happy Holidays!!
Awesome video. Was googling Govee and your video popped up. The lights look amazing. I have some projects I would like to work on, your tips are time saving thanks for doing the work for us 😂 🎉
That’s what I’m here for!
Installed the GOVEE permanent lights yesterday and find myself looking to expand. I'm thinking about the 100ft. dot strand for a outline effect. The curtains look interesting also.
For the garage Curtin lights.. did you use multiple or just the 14ft version?
I started with multiples, realized I messed up, then swapped them out for the 14’ version. Hence why I’m now giving away 3 individual curtain lights haha
Nice!! I'm working on my 3 sets of curtain lights this week!
Amazing Video!. I just set up my govee Permanent Lights 2 and they look amazing. I 3D printed all the brackets to mount them. It was too cold for the adhesive to properly bond and it saved me the trouble of getting on a ladder twice.
Did putting each 3D printed bracket up take a while? I’m dreading having to go back and do it haha
@@BreakItYourself It didnt take much longer than putting up a single light. The mount I made used only 2 screws per led.
Love the curtain lights! Wondering how they hold up to opening and closing the garage door when only attached at the top.
They're working great! I need to make a short form video showing the opening and closing, but so far, no issues, even when it was super windy.
are you able to do multiple scenes automatically or only manually?
Great content as always. I have the permanent lights and the 2 things of the Christmas lights. I would love to get some curtains for the garage. Your house looks great!!

Are you able to open the garage with the curtain on?
Yep, as long as you don't attach the bottom to the garage door it should be fine.
Hi simple one can you cut and extend?
Thank you I did the exact install for the curtain lights.
So if i want to put outside my garage i have to buy 3 same one
for the curtain lights 2 they make a 15' kit for garage doors. Don't buy three curtain lights 2 kits individually. it's not the same.
Can’t wait to get some of these!
Do you have a link to the corner bead you used?
So after watching your Christmas projection mapping video, I brought an Epson laser projector 16,000 lumens due to daylight savings and summer, needed the higher outputs

@ yes I have the 14 foot kit and it operates like 3 separate curtains. 1 controller 1 power supply
Look great. Definitely want those pro light around the house will make everything really nice and the curtains almost got some last year but Definitely want some this year since I moved into my own home a few weeks ago
I have a little bit of govve products and is looking around to get more so your video really helped me see what I wanted!!

@@BreakItYourself thats to bad.. i was hoping i could have the effect cross over 3 different windows.
With the curtain lights can you use your garage. I have a metal 4 panel roll up and need to use it all the time.
In this application the garage door is still fully functional!
What do the permanent pros do over the non pros 2
The pros are slightly brighter and will give you a warmer white. The 2’s have more lights per string but cooler white. It comes down to personal preference. I want the warm white. If you’re mostly using the lights for colors then it won’t matter much.
What did you use for waterproof cases for the power adapters?
Looks great, I just got some curtain lights!
Nice! Welcome to the club!
Hi, I love the Govee outdoor curtain you have… I’d like that on my side wall which is 5ft wide… could you guide me to where I can get it… thank you 🙏
Use the link in the description to snag a set from Amazon
Started with pathway lights….now I’m going pro! Love Govee products.
Love it!! I’m turning into a garage door curtain lights stan 😂 for $300 it’s such an awesome addition. Put it on your list!
What model of Eufy lights did you use on your back fence
Only the Pros will recognize that you cut off some lights. The regular ones will think you still have those lights and will try to light them, which will look weird when you are doing a run through all the lights.
Great - another toy for my husband to drool over.
Super nice video. Great explanation's. Where can I find an extra extension cord for the Govee Outdoor Pro? I can only find the one's with the lights? Does anyone sell just an extension cord?
I wanna put this on the side of my house which is a two-story house and probably 30 feet across. Am I able to do this like the garage lights?
The permanent ones look great
OMG, these lights are amazing. It's a funny story... i was walking through the Rona in Canada 🇨🇦 and i saw these exact same lights, but they were expensive, so i was like, buy my daughter groceries or get the lights?

enter anyway... we'll see what we can do if you win haha
I like your setup.Govee lights are the way to go. I like the app interface
Been doing a lot of research on LED lights and cant decide what to do next year. GOVEE or Pixel controllers
I believe The Hook Up uses some version of permanent under eave lights (Eufy, Govee, etc) in conjunction with a pixel controller for Christmas shows. Could be a decent solution to get the best of both worlds.

Thanks for the detailed information. Im looking to install permanent lights on my home. Your giveaway would give me a good start. 👍
Looks awesome. Govee makes great products
not a govee ad, could be a 3M ad though
Awesome video. Love your idea with the corner bead drywall. Love to win!
Your house looks fabulous
