I have seen permanent outdoor led lights you can mount once, and manually change which color patterns there are based on the season.
However I'm skeptical of amazon reviews and skeptical that anything outdoor can last more than a year or two. Has anyone had success with something similar? I like the idea of mounting once, using it a couple times a year and leaving it up for a purpose and not to be tacky.

Govee seems to be the best off-the-shelf option for this as nobody else has really pursued this mostly hobbist market outside of custom installers like you mentioned.

I also think they should last quite a while since they'll be mounted up in the soffit outside of any direct sun or rain exposure which is what's bad for electronics.
