To make things easier for new or returning users, Govee has upgraded the bend clips and rope material to simplify the shape design and installation process. The improved bend clips can be easily shaped in advance, for a more a hassle-free setup. Moreover, the company claims the softer rope material offers 14% increased flexibility compared to the previous generation, making it easier to achieve the desired shape. Additionally, the rope is 14% lighter, further increasing the chances of an easier installation.

The Neon Rope Light 2 also introduces a new Shape Mapping function in the Govee Home app, allowing users to adjust light shapes effortlessly by capturing them with a camera. Additionally, the light can be controlled in segments, offering various DIY lighting effect options.
