Good news! There is a way to make your Black Friday purchase of the Monster IlluminEssence LED Strip worthwhile!
plughitz.live/howto
For those who purchased the Monster IlluminEssence LED Strip on Black Friday from Walmart, you probably got left with a defective unit. Over the past month, we have been trying to come up with a solution, working with both Monster and the factory that produces the products to identify and solve the issue. However, it's Christmas and we're tired of waiting, and we're sure you are, as well. The good news is that there is a solution!
A new batch of product has been produced and shipped to Walmart stores across the country. We've tested quite a few of the new units and they have all been a success. If you have not installed your strip, simply swap them out at your local store. If you have already installed the strip, purchase a new one at your local store, swap the control units, and return the defective one. The key is that you need to look at the bottom of the box for the new batch number (1929A) and on the control unit for the new batch number (1906).
Good luck and Happy Holidays!

this brand is a rip off. i’ve bought 2 different sets by the same brand and i can never get the controller to work. it’s ridiculous!! $30 for something that doesn’t even work.

Jasmine Rose That is a perfectly reasonable reaction. We would feel the same way as well if we hadn't been exposed to the product before the defect. The company is producing a new line, manufactured by a different company right now. We had the opportunity to speak with the team this week and see the new products. They are a far cry from this unfortunate disaster, and the new manufacturer is fully aware of the problems you and so many others have experienced.

Hello, I have a newer version of this called 1932A. I got it at Walmart like 2 days ago. At fIrst the remote was working fine then after a few days it stopped. I tried pairing it multiple times with the high speed button and it still won’t work. Is there any suggestions on how to fix it?

I went back to look for a replacement and they had a small space led kit that came with the strip, remote, and an LED dimmable bulb which only cost like $14.88 instead of 12.88 for just the single strip so I got that instead cuz I figured for $2 more why not.

Can someone help me please. I literally bought the LED strips yesterday and one strip wont respond to the remote. Like everything else responds to the remote besides this. and if it does its super delayed. i moved it around in different areas and still nothing. Is there a way to fix this so both the strips can respond at the same time?

That is a common problem, unfortuantely. There is a big defect with the product. There have been people who say it works if you go through the pairing process, remove the batteries from the remote, and put them back. Others have suggested that holding the remote to the control unit while pairing works. Our recommendation is to try the new SKU instead: bit.ly/MonsterLedStripS

I have 1906 and only been using it for a couple days and I cannot control my led strip. It turns on but I cannot use the remote. I get red ring for each button I press. It would not re-pair. I just popped batteries out and back in. Did the re-pair dance and it works.. no battery change just out and back in. Very odd. We do have a 2.4ghz 5ghz router nearby. Is it possible there is interference as well?

I bought the 6.5ft x 3 LED strips in the US last week. I’m back home in Canada trying to set them up, i have tried multiple different sets of batteries and the remote still won’t work. There is no red dot in the middle, which means i obviously can’t pair it. I can’t return this product and i also can’t get a hold of monster to explain what is going on. Seems now like a huge waste of money. Any solution?

looking at this video and comments i thought my lights were defected..when they only reset back to blue when i turn my tv off (since their connected to my tvs usb) and i was thinking i got some bad ones but i’m guessing they just reset back when they turn off. unless there’s a way to “lock” a certain color. but honestly if mine aren’t defected i don’t really mind at all setting my preferred color each time though it does get a bit annoying with the pad trying to get the exact color.

Yes. They ALWAYS power on to the default white (sometimes looks blue to people because it's a really cold white). Besides the defect, it is the most commented on issue with the design. The replacements power back on to the last color state.

After a while, the remote stops working and the light in the center of the ring doesn't activate anymore? That's usually an indication of a bad battery. Ours did that earlier in the year when it was time to change the battery.

That is everyone's problem, unfortuantely. There is a big defect with the product. There have been people who say it works if you go through the pairing process, remove the batteries from the remote, and put them back. Others have suggested that holding the remote to the control unit while pairing works. Our recommendation is to try the new SKU instead: bit.ly/MonsterLedStripS

Yo-_-Sway So, when you press a button, like the power button, on the remote, the red light in the center of the ring doesn't activate? If that's the case, and your batteries are guaranteed good, that would indicate an issue with the remote itself.
