Two 26.5ft runs of silicone-coated RGB+IC strip on one waterproof controller, built to chase rainbows along a gutter, a railing or a pool wall, and to join up with more sets for a synced show round the house.
Cedarine's outdoor kit is two 26.5ft strips fed by one waterproof controller, 53ft in all. The strips are RGB+IC, which means a chip controls each short segment on its own. Instead of the whole run glowing one colour, the gutter can carry a rainbow, a ripple of red chasing green, or a white comet running from corner to corner.
That segment control opens up 209 modes, many of which a plain RGB strip cannot do at all:
Silicone coats both the strip surface and the inside of the control box, the cables are waterproof, and the whole kit carries an IP67 rating. It runs at 24V from a UL-certified waterproof adapter, a low voltage that suits long outdoor runs and keeps the strip safe to handle.
The result is a strip that can live along a roofline, a balcony railing or the edge of a pool deck and still behave like a party light. On a quiet evening, a slow colour flow looks like a sunset moving across the house. On Halloween, orange and purple chasing each other round the porch sets the tone before anyone knocks.
Colour, speed and rate of change all adjust from the app or the remote, which matters more outside than in. A fast chase that looks thrilling at a party can feel restless on a weeknight, so slow it right down for everyday use.

Outdoors, movement catches the eye from the street in a way a single colour cannot. Cedarine's chases give a house the feel of a light show without extra hardware: every effect comes from the same two strips and one controller.
Places and nights where the strip earns its keep:
Music sync in duoCo Strip turns the porch into part of the party. The strip changes with the playlist, so a backyard birthday gets lights that move with the songs. The app also offers DIY colour buttons for saving favourite shades, a timer for dusk-to-bedtime schedules, and group control for running several sets together.
Honest limits help pick the right spot. The strip fixes with 24 buckles, which suit railings and fascia boards but are not the same as a permanent channel system. The IP67 rating handles rain and splashes, yet the power adapter should still sit off the ground and away from standing water. And if the plan is one calm white every night, an RGB+IC strip is more light show than the job needs.
Cedarine designed the 53ft kit as a building block. Up to ten sets can connect in a continuous run of 530ft, and Cedarine says the full length keeps even brightness and plays every chase, flicker and colour jump in sync. Start with the front of the house, then add sets for the sides and back when you are ready.
A sensible first install:
The link is made inside duoCo Strip, and the phone's Bluetooth menu stays untouched. Every light in the ELK-BLEDOM family works that way, and the pairing guide explains the fixes when the controller hides. The app guide covers timers, music sync and DIY colours in more depth.
Cedarine's spec sheet lists a 12-month warranty. Treat the control box kindly anyway: tuck it under the eave or behind a post where it stays out of direct sun and pooled rain, and the silicone coating inside has an easier life.
Outdoor ELK-BLEDOM lights split into two camps: long runs that glow one colour at a time, and chasing RGB+IC strips like Cedarine. Four of them, side by side, on the points that decide the purchase.
| Light | Length | Weather rating | Colour style | App |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cedarine RGB+IC strip | 53ft, links to 530ft | IP67 | Multi-colour chase | duoCo Strip |
| LITSOUL permanent eave lights | 400ft | IP65 | RGB plus tunable white | Lotus Lantern |
| httpsmp RGB+IC USB strip | 16.4ft | IP68 | Multi-colour chase | Magic Lantern |
| FBZ outdoor strip | 100ft | IP65 | RGB | Lotus Lantern |
The LITSOUL eave lights cover a whole roofline in one go and add a proper white for everyday use. The httpsmp strip brings the same chasing idea to a USB-powered 16.4ft run for balconies and camping. The FBZ 100ft strip suits long single-colour runs fixed with screw clips.
Cedarine falls midway through the group. It is long enough to trace the front of a typical house with one set, it grows in 53ft steps when the project does, and its chasing effects give it more personality than a plain RGB run. It suits the person who wants the house to move at Halloween and Christmas, yet still look tidy with a slow colour flow on an ordinary Friday. Its 2.4G remote is a practical extra for anyone who has stood in the rain pointing an infrared remote at a gutter.
Before buying Cedarine, check:
A chip controls each short segment separately, so one strip shows several colours at once and can run chases, blooms and rainbows that a plain RGB strip cannot.
Yes. Up to ten 53ft sets connect into a 530ft run that plays the same effects in sync; the manual shows the connection method.
It is rated IP67, with silicone over the strip and inside the control box, waterproof cables and a waterproof 24V adapter.
