Bellevue, Wash. – September 10, 2026 -- Govee has launched the Permanent Outdoor Lights 2 Pro, a fixed outdoor lighting system that lets homeowners run two independently controlled color layers on a single light strip. The 100-foot version costs $499.99, while the 200-foot version is priced at $799.99, both available now through Govee.com and Amazon.
A single strip now runs two separate color zones at once
The system is built around Govee's proprietary ColorZone Solution, which controls color zones independently within one light unit. Where earlier permanent outdoor lighting only displayed a single layer of color, this version lets users layer distinct tones simultaneously, producing gradients, wall-washing effects, and highlighted architectural details across eaves, facades, and decks.
An AI tool designs the lighting from a text description
Govee's LuminBlend+ Color Management System handles color transitions from soft pastels to saturated shades. The AI Lighting Bot 2.0 lets users type a description of the look they want, and the system generates a matching dual-layer lighting design for different sections of a home's exterior. The lights also include eight preset "Iconic Wonders" effects modeled on natural landscapes.
New Y connectors let split strings run different effects
Independent-control Y connectors allow a single light string to branch into separate sections, each running its own lighting effect. Govee says this makes it easier to customize installations across irregular home layouts and complex exterior designs.
The strips carry an IP68 rating for year-round outdoor use
The light strings are rated IP68 for waterproofing, built to handle rain, snow, and extreme temperatures for continuous outdoor use. The system also works with Matter and integrates with Alexa and Google Home.
Govee CEO Eric Wu said the company built on years of R&D, from earlier cuttable light designs to multi-zone optics, to give users a bigger creative canvas for personalizing their homes. According to Euromonitor International, Govee ranked as the top-selling brand for household permanent outdoor lights in the U.S. across retail channels in 2025, based on research completed in June 2026.
