I got this thinking that it would be fun to add some color to our house. 16 feet turns out to be shorter than one might expect, so it took a little time to figure out where I could get the most impact. I ended up installing the Monster 5M Outdoor Strip around our front door, which gives us the opportunity to change the colors through out the year and celebrate any holiday or mood with a click of the button. I do wish that the remote had a better range, as we must actually go outside and point the remote at the receiver. It's not enough to simply point it through the exterior wall from the inside. All and all, we're having great fun as a family with our outdoor light strip.
