First time ever trying a Monster Multi-Color USB LED Light Strip with Remote. I love it so much that I just had to buy another one, because my kids who didn't want one changed their minds as soon as I turned on the strip light. What I like most is that it doesn't run on batteries.  I plug up the USB right by my bed; as I have it around my head board. It also has a very light weight remote with several functions. It's totally awesome and the small remote does not take up alot of space. It makes my bedroom look so pretty. The strip isn't big and wide nor heavy, yet gives enough light. Its a good quality and a pretty good reasonable value compared to other brands.
