I’ve been on a fascinating journey transforming my home with Govee smart lighting, and I’d love to share my experiences and tips with you all. 
Starting with the Govee Allure Smart Ground Lights (H7050) and LED Bulb String Lights (H7002), I’ve completely revamped my pool and patio area. These lights weren’t just about aesthetics; they’ve become a focal point during gatherings, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The ability to customize colors and scenes through the Govee app has been a game-changer, especially for special occasions like holidays or family get-togethers. 
One of the challenges I faced was figuring out the best way to mount these lights without damaging my rental property’s stucco exterior. After some research, I discovered that hanging them from the angled roof eaves was the perfect solution! It added a unique DIY touch and kept the installation reversible. 
I also wanted to share a fun DIY project I undertook with my ADT door sensors. By repurposing the sensors, I’ve been able to integrate them into my SmartThings setup for monitoring my backup sump pump. This was a great way to reuse affordable sensors and add functionality to my smart home system. 
For those looking to enhance their outdoor lighting further, I’d recommend exploring Govee’s RGBWW strips. They offer a versatility that’s hard to beat, and while I wish they had smaller curable sections, the overall quality and performance make them a worthwhile investment. 
I’m excited to continue exploring more Govee products and seeing how they can further enhance my home. Whether it’s through creative installations or innovative uses, Govee has truly become my go-to for smart lighting solutions.
