A flat 32 ft adhesive strip against Linkind's HP5 100, six strands over 100 ft with a bracket for wall and ceiling faces. Both sit in the same cost tier; the strip is rated IP65 against the HP5's IP67.
Govee
32 FT · 42 ZONES · 9 IN SPACING · IP65
The cheapest way to get a lit line on the house. A flat adhesive strip rather than a rope, so it wants a straight edge under an overhang; IP65 means splash and rain, not standing water.
Linkind
100 FT · 60 ZONES · 20 IN SPACING · IP67
Six 16.6 ft strands, 60 lights, 16 million colours plus 2700K to 6500K white, 85 scenes. The bracket is the feature: it takes a wall or a ceiling face, not just the underside of an overhang. Controlled through Aidot rather than a first-party app.
| What differs | Strip 33 | HP5 100 | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Budget band | Budget | Budget | Same tier. We print neither number; the buttons above open the live listings. |
| Length | 32 ft | 100 ft | Longer is only better if the roofline needs it. The calculator says which. |
| Lights, pitch | 42 at 9 in | 60 at 20 in | Closer pitch reads slightly more continuous from the street; wider reads as distinct points. |
| Addressable zones | 42 | 60 | A zone is the smallest thing the app can colour on its own. Alternating schemes need one per light. |
| Weather rating | IP65 | IP67 | The higher number survives more water. Anything under a gutter wants IP67 or better. |
Price tiers are our own rough budget bands, not live prices. Check the listing for today’s price.
Same front, same dusk, same camera. Side by side is the only comparison that survives the product photography.
