Who each one is for
The Govee Pro 100 is for a house that wants Govee’s app and ecosystem, with the Matter listing and a 2700K warm white. It has 60 lights at 20 in.
The Enbrighten Vibe Eternity 100 is for a buyer who prefers not to buy Govee. It is made by Jasco and sold under the Enbrighten name. It has 72 lights at 17 in over the same 100 ft. Here the real differences are brand, pitch, and how much the listing tells you.
The differences that matter
- Brand and support. Govee against Jasco. Check the warranty terms on each listing before buying; we do not list warranty lengths.
- Pitch and count. 60 lights at 20 in on the Pro, 72 lights at 17 in on the Eternity. The Eternity reads slightly more continuous.
- White. Both have a dedicated white channel rather than a white mixed from colour LEDs. The Pro states 2700K to 6500K; the Eternity listing gives an adjustable white without stating that range.
- Brightness. The Pro is listed at up to 50 lm per light. The Eternity listing does not state lumens in our data.
- Weather rating. The Pro lists IP67 lights and an IP65 control box. The Eternity lists weatherproof, -4F to 131F, ETL and NEC compliance, and no IP rating at all.
- Cutting and length. Both are cuttable. The Eternity comes as six 16.5 ft strands and links up to 200 ft; the Pro goes past 150 ft only with Govee’s driver module.
- Mounting. The Eternity box includes brackets, 3M VHB tape, screws, cord clips, a power supply and an extension cable. The Pro uses supplied VHB glue and clips.
- Control. The Eternity uses a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi app with schedules and automations, plus Alexa and Google Home. The Pro lists the Govee Home app with Matter, Alexa and Google Assistant, and 75 scenes.
Which to buy
- Matter, or the strongest white range stated on paper: the Pro 100.
- You want a non-Govee brand with a manufacturer behind it: the Eternity.
- You want an IP number to hold the manufacturer to: the Pro, because the Eternity prints none.
- Hardware in the box: the Eternity includes a wider set of mounting parts, which helps on a mixed wall.
When to pick neither
If the eave has no lip to hide a channel and you want a bracket that fits wall or ceiling, look at the Linkind HP5. If you like the Eternity’s 17 in pitch but want a Govee app with a stated IP rating, compare it with the Lights 2 100. Read the installing guide before ordering any of them.
