Here we go again....

For the folks not understanding why this is a good deal - This is an RGBIC strip. This means RGB, (I)ndependent (C)ontrol.

So it can have multiple zones of color and brightness at the same time and not merely a run-of-the-mill RGB strip that is only one solid color/brightness across the entire length.

So... for 17 bucks plus whatever extra materials you can do stuff like this:

That was about $35 to build.

TL : DR, This is a basic Arduino and RGBIC strip combo. With a nice simple physical control module as well as software control via the app. Its a great price for what you get. Want to DIY? Great, no need to TD this.

Edit: In case you missed it in OPs post, these cannot be cut like a standard RGB strip so make sure you can utilize or hide the portion you don't need and be careful about that 32 foot length version.
