I tried their outdoor lights before and they leaked. They quickly sent me a replacement which also went bad on the next rain. Third time the same thing. Fourth try we just accepted a full refund. The customer service was responsive but the products were just not what they promised.

So I should not use these around the rim of a pool...got it.
I haven't found a full comparison, but they seem to not be the same range of white (although still better range than the non pros) and have less splice kits in them.
I'm interested in this style of lighting and can justify the cost but not if they're prone to failure - changing out 150ft of lights 2 stories in the air is a bit different than low voltage path lighting.

FWIW…They come in short sections (~16 ft each) so technically you would only need to change out the section that went bad.
I've been researching these Elites after I bought a couple packages on impulse. One major difference is Govee switched the connections around on the Elites vs the Pro/non-pro so they are not interchangeable.
Still not sure I should install these or just return and wait for a deal on the pros.
My big concern is having to replace (or add another) power supply. Govee doesn't sell parts for these on their site so I'm worried about long term compatibility and parts availability.

Hoping you have some answers.
On the Govee website, they list "Driver Module" as a purchase option.
Does this mean I can buy 150' and an extra diver module and wire them up separately (splitting the 150').
I have a detached garage that needs about 50', then my house needs about 100'. The Pros are offered in 50' section.
