A 10 m multicolour Wi-Fi strip for under £30, which is hard to beat on price per metre. It is a plain RGB strip rather than an addressable one, so you get single colours along the whole run, not gradients. Home Assistant lists the L900-10 on its TP-Link integration, so local control works after account-based setup.
What can Home Assistant control on the TP-Link Tapo L900-10?
Requires TP-Link account credentials during setup; discovery fails across subnets, so add by IP if Home Assistant is on a different VLAN.
