Its soft glow, used as a backlight to create wild romance, is very relaxing for the eyes in a dimly lit room or at night. It's also light and lovely for bedrooms, mirrors, kitchens, cabinets, shelves, patios, and computer decor. With 8 different modes and speeds to choose from, you can dim/brighten the battery-powered LED strip—perfect as a night light to meet all your needs! It also has a memory function, so you don't have to continuously change the settings every night. You can set the 'Timer' by pressing the 'TIMER' button on the remote; our LED strip light will be on for 6 hours and off for 18 hours automatically each day, so you don't need to switch them on and off—they're just there for you to enjoy. The adhesive backing on the strip is sticky enough to adhere to a clean surface. Very easy to install; just peel off the blue layer (not the white rubber) and stick it where you want. The light strip is flexible, very small, and thin, so no one will notice it. Battery-powered LED lights can be cut to a suitable length. Each individual LED on the strip can literally just be cut off along the line, but only the part connected to the battery pack will continue to function. Enjoy!
