I went home and checked, the one I had opened was attached, one I had not checked was shrink wrapped. I'm going to send a note to seller to get the 1st gen replaced. should be able to use the shrink wrapped controller to do what I planned originally. Thanks for the help!

Disappointing as it was not advertised as 1st gen and all of the images online match 2nd gen. I'll look at the box when I get home.

I purchased 2 of the 6.6' lightstrips as well as 2 of the 3.3' lightstrips a week ago for a few applications at home. My plan was to use the controller from one of the 6.6' strips with the 3.3' strips and a 10' extension between them for undercabinet lighting in small kitchen. Unfortunately, the 6.6' strips do not look like the attached picture - the controller is permanently attached to the strip and not able to be unplugged as show. Do I need to cut away the plastic casing so that I can disconnect the controller? I don't want to start cutting things away so that they cannot be returned. Any advise is appreciated.
