2 year update on that bedroom setup?
For those asking about customisation of the light patterns and defaults, it can be done but it's not simple if the control unit doesn't support it already (I don't know whether or not it does because I haven't used one of these RGB LED strips). It's possible to program a microcontroller, such as those used in an Arduino, to send color-change commands to the LED strip. The main requirement is that the microcontroller must be able to run fast enough to send the short pulses which the RGB LED strips use as color-setting commands. Unfortunately, this method requires you to either learn how to program or to get someone else who knows how to program, to do the custom programming for you. (The control unit is just an infrared receiver and a microcontroller which does all the hard work)
Love your intro. It's slick and quick to the point. I can't tell you how many times I back out of tech videos or tutorials that have long + obnoxious intros.

I got the exact same RGB strip a few moths ago, almost same price! I used it on inside the lid of my aquarium and I must say: they are just perfect for it! I used the entire strip to make sure that I had everything well covered of course. The plants are growing wonderfully, no algae, healthy fish, etc. Which kinda surprised me to be honest since I've used other water resistant (NOT waterproof, there is a big difference!) RGB LED strips who have cost me a hell lot more who gave me a bunch of headaches after a while (failing lights, remote not connecting anymore, LED's giving up here and there and this after a very short period of time). Very happy with this one, and my fish too! Cheers.

I want to get some kind of LED/RGB lighting for my new gaming PC case that has a side panel window so I can show off all my components. Kind of sad I know but would look better then just having a plain old PC. Wondering what RGB/LED lights the KZreadrs use for their gaming PC's and was curious if this would do the trick if I plug it into my power supply instead of the wall. Many thanks in advance! :)

Do you find that the Placement of the LED strip helps or hinders when editing in over all lower room light? I’m in a situation where my apartment does not have over head lighting.

Only just saw this video but if I wanted to put different led lights in different spots of my room would I have to buy multiple receivers?
Is there a way to extend these lights? I bought one and I'm wanting to put half of it on a desk and the rest on a tv thats on a wall a foot away from the desk.
Irs great that the same remote would work for multiple receivers. Does someone know if we can buy additional receivers and if so which kind for these LEDs.
Could you connect these to something in a computer to power them and not have to use the power brick? Im upgrading my pc and I want some lighting in the new case so I am looking for some reasonably priced LED strips to put in.
is there a way to connect two strips together? i have a plan for lighting and i need 30 consecutive feet of led strip. if you can connect them, does it power it all with just one wall plug?
hello i have a question i got a led tape 2 meters.i put on desktop though should i put down wards of desktop looking floor or on up side of desktop looking on top?
What's the table you are using for your setup xD? looks really nice tbh...
can you use part of the LED strip for the back of your desk and another part of the strip for your PC or do you need 2 separate strips for that?
can these light up a completely dark average sized bedroom if mounted on the upper area of a wall. I want to get 2 16.4ft strips and put them on two walls. Are they bright enough for that?
If i have 2 night stands that I want to put LEDs behind them... what's an efficient way of doing it? If i buy this LED strip you're using it has tons of light stirp to work with, but once I cut it, the rest becomes useless - is there an adapter for the rest of the LED light strip I can buy?
Does it remember the setting if you disconnect the power? I'd like to plug the strip to the LED Driver inside the ceiling light and once I switch the light on I want the strip to light up warm white as default without using a remote. Then change the color if desired.
would these work with my motherboard? it has digital and analog led strip outputs.
I was thinking about getting some led's and after this video i went and bought the same ones from Amazon they work great, thanks for the tip 20 bucks is really a drop in the bucket for full computer desk lights.
if i have the rest of the cable , can i use it again for another desk, but in the box, they just give us 1 adapter. Pls help me
so I have like 6 rolls of the lights. but only one power supply, adaptor and remote. do you know where I can get more power supplies that are compatible with this brand of lights?
So, I just bought led strip and I don't have that wire thing which I need to connect if I cut the stripe. Is it still possible for me to cut the stripe?
How many would i need for a 60''W 60'' D desk to go behind the table and under?? Should just one wok fine? In case i need a 2nd one do i also need a new adapter what do I need? Thanks
Good video! Using the staple gun is a good tip. Just a heads up, the link to the LED strip in your description is down so you may wanna change that out.
