This $40 smart light strip is half the price of the Philips Hue version

If you’re in the market for a smart light strip, you’re going to shell out a fair amount of cash. After all, light strips from the likes of Philips Hue and LIFX may have a ton to offer in terms of compatibility, features, and ease of use, but that’s all reflected in the price. I would know – I’ve reviewed a ton of them in our buying guide here. Thankfully, those aren’t your only options. There are more affordable smart light strips, like the Koogeek LS1.
