The PCWorld review (dated Jul 27, 2023) of the "Nanoleaf Essentials Matter Lightstrip Smarter Kit (2m)" corroborates identity and supplies the numeric specs — 2m base length, "21 LEDs per meter," "maximum brightness of 2,200 lumens," "2,700 Kelvin to 6,500K," Thread + Bluetooth, and "No music syncing" — plus the price "$49.99 for the 2-meter version."
