BEST way to stick an LED Light Strip behind a TV
Вставка

- With support for advanced multi-colour light effects like "Rainbow", Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant... Oh, and did I mention these are USB-powered! This is probably the most impressive LED light strip I've shown off on this channel.
Note: I bought the "15.5 x 12.5 mm" clips for Cololight's LED light strips

Big thank you to Cololights for letting me be one of the first to test their newly released LED Light Strips for the last few months. These are seriously impressive and a one of a kind product for sure! It's hard to find an LED Light Strip that ticks so many boxes: USB Powered, Cut to desired size design, WiFi, Addressable-RGB LEDs (multiple colours simultaneously "Rainbow effect"), Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Music Mode, in-line controls and so much more!
There are a few features that I didn't cover in this video, like the fact that you can cut these to your desired size, the fancy reactive music modes and how much the Cololight app can do. I'm planning on making another video that'll be more in the form of a review, where I'll go more in-depth on all the features.

Thx for the input on the cable clips. I tried using the adhesive and they just fell off after a few days and then got dirty due to the dust. Will give those clips a try
That's lit man 🔥🔥 Keep it up👍
Was going to get my room renovated and this gives a perfect idea on how to go about.❤️
They do make specialized kits for mounting on the back of the TV. You may find that your LEDs begin to degrade or break with the bends in them. The special kits have extenders that make for easier cornering. We just revied a kit by Pangton Villa that had them and have a kit by Govee we still have to film. Keep up the good work sir! Would love to collab with you on an LED product! Cheers!
I made a loop at each corner to avoid stress at the corners
Doesn't the cable clip has also adhesive on it? Melting the same way as the LED strips?
Depends on the adhesive type I had my M3 tape of my LIFX stay on for a year and a half it only got weaker, when I took it down because I wanted to get a longer strip and then when you remove it it doesn't stick anymore. But with something like this it's much easier to stick it, straighten it, instead of a wobbling LED STICK and then just slide it in without using the full stick on the strip.
I came straight to the comments hoping someone was thinking the same as me.. and I was disappointed.. until I saw your comment. Great minds think alike
I've seen similar cable clips (bought them) at Dollar Tree for $1 - for about 10 of them. They have stayed well on the back of my monitor for over a year already and show no signs of coming loose.
Ok
@@jb6644 Ok
This is a good video because he's explain more about the LED lights being put on a hot surface and coming off when something gets hot
eeek thanks for the video tech block keep up the great vids I really like them
Does any of these led strips show colors from the screen by any chance?
This is a great tip, thank you. Decided to use the clip method myself. Works perfectly. 👍
Packing tape works great too for the back of a TV.
Thanks for the cable clip tip. Haven't been able to get adhesive on any brand I have tried to stay on.
How is no one noticing the fact that the cable clips have adhesive backing as well..
Thank you So much for these clips !!!! Its just what I need .. my strongest double side sticking tapes doesnt even hold up my LEDS. Cheers mate you're a life saver
I hope it works out for you!
I have installed Strip Lights. To help stick them to my display shelf, I have used a little sellotape on some places. Is that ok or will my strip lights short out or overheat when covered by the sellotape?
techblock out here living lavish i see 👀👀
I'm at school atm but I'm still gonna watch this.
where did you get that dope tv stand?
So your telling me a 7$ cable clips adhesive will stick to the back of a tv when it gets hot but the adhesive on 98$ LED strips won’t? Got it 📝😅
Exactly what I was thinking lol
damn, that looks sick
i love your videos
Good idea about the plastic claps.... Simple enough video. Thanks 😊
Looking nice and slick
Dang, I never knew that… thanks for the info
I just came home and the first thing i see on yt is this video 🥰
❤️
Next up the racing sim
Does the clip fit on curved monitors?
TECH BLOCK POSTED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can it also be put on one colour? Like only blue or somthing
My tv has build in, thank you phillips Ambilight. But tge vid was great! Looking lit (literally)
Tnx for d tip
I have a question what will happen if I use clear tape will it burn the led or is it safe?
Hey em you have a really good gaming setup but I think it could use a mini fridge and u can make it rgb u can pick up some Motion censored rgb lights they take battery's love the videos man
Thx for the info. I have double sided tape so I’ll try that.
Best of luck!
Sup em, just wondering if there would be a techblock discord server coming anytime soon? I shot u an email a couple months back regarding one. Would love to assist in the development of one!
What monitors do you use
Were you able to get one kit to wrap around your TV or did you have to splice the strip?
This should be good for my BX OLED? I’m scream to put anything in the top part of the TV bc of how thin it is
When he introduced his plant... I was sure it was going to light up. I braced myself for an RGB plant.
Imagine 😂
Now he has an rgb plant of sorts in its place
@@TechBlock nice video mate. looking good. how many cable clips do i need with my lg cx 65 inch tv? and youre light strip set dont have a power adapter? must be connected with usb? and how you connect the strip?
@@dvgemerden28 the clips come in a 100 pack, so you will have plenty left over.
Great Setup. But where are the Cololights? New Product perhaps?
Behind the TV :)
How much will u charge I need my whole room done ASAP 😩😍
Amazing....we want a rgb house ....plzzzz
Where did you get the tv stand
I have a 43’ Sony tv. How many led light strips will I need to put around my tv
Neat work
So why are the clips more adhesive? You are trying to sell these.
You should have done a LED word counter 😂😂😂
I’m more of a Govee guy myself
Unless you have an iPhone
@@TechBlock i own govee led strips my self, and i also use an iphone as my main phone, and to be honest, it works perfect together 👌🏽
@@MrCrazyhollander Q0+0
Please give ideas about the flood lighr to light up room
I would 100% do this but my TV has one built in that is great. I managed to get a 50” 4K Phillips Smart TV for only £345!!!! What a steal! And it’s awesome!! It was £799 RRP! Probably because of the Pandemic.
So u use adhesive to fix hot adhesive
TV stand from?
Where’s the tv stand from
Where is the link
Thank you, Danke aus München/Bavarian / 12.08.23 - I like Temu and Aliexpress 🙂
I connected one led lights last night and it’s worked perfectly, I turned it off and disconnected it to sleep cause the conector has a light and I sleep in a dark room. So! When I woke up and connected it back and tried to turned it on the lights make like a flash 📸, turn on but right away just turn off , and it’s not working. Idk why or what I did wrong but everything it’s connected correctly.
Duct or electric tape is good too. I upgraded my LED strip. The electric tape was still sticky after 5 years
Gorilla tape!!! will fix anything trust me!!! When u remove the tape part of your tv will go with it lol
do they make any light kits that match the colors on the tv as it plays? or does that tech not exist as of yet? i would love to see something that auto matches with the colors naturally being displayed while watching tv.....
ANYBODY KNOW OF SUCH A KIT? thanks sooo much all!!!
Check out Philips Hue Gradient LED light strips and a Hue Play HDMI Sync Box
are there not tvs that alredy have rgb built in and they change color to the same clours as the screen
I got a 65 in tv.. how.long do I need the strip to be in total?
2-3m should be enough I reckon
2-3m for 65” TV ?? 😂
What do you do when you have those clips and they still fall off the back of the tv?
Did yours fall off?
@@TechBlock ya. They fall down about once a week. I ha a 55" and I have 7 or 8 clips on top and bottome and like 5 on the sides. They fall after a few days
Where do you purchase these clips in UK?
Hey, these are the ones I bought on Amazon: geni.us/4oEfP3D
Nice
Wait so when the tv gets hot it won’t make them fall as well?
Lol same thing I was wondering
I need it
Where are they plugged in and what can I do as mine don't have USB
If you don’t have usb plug on back of your tv you’ll have to
A) install an outlet with usb ports
B) use a plug in usb adapter like a phone brick plug that into wall then plug your usb into brick’
Yo can u hook me up with those SICK! led lights
This is how many times he said "TV"
👇... Perfect vid 🔥🔥
Bruh all i did is stick some clear tape of it lol
So one starter kit and on expansion kit?
I used two starter kits for my setup
@@TechBlock I see some type of black tape or something were they meet in the back what’s that?
I have this heavy ass one that can’t be held by tape lol
Myne comes with the clips
Cool
Try using transparent tape
No way I’d buy these LED lights I’m not crazy, mine are have Bluetooth connection as well as can be just be in disco mode meaning they are pulsating to the surrounding sound in the room or to my TV which I use and I payed 14.99 for it and not 120$ plus
What's the biggest PC You ever built
Chewing gum works great for sticking
Then the clips are gonna come off are t they? It won’t work
Chatting from Nigeria
Hi tech block me and you could be friends your an Awesome person on you tube I enjoy your rgb gaming setups and they are so nice your my friend tech block
I'm paranoid that putting the lights directly on the back of my OLED will bounce heat back and burn in or something so I'm considering putting them around the box behind the screen🤔🤔
Your not paranoid, do not put them on the back of an oled especially a CX, GX C1 G1 C2 or G2 because its so thin and it will put more heat onto the back of the screen and ruin it, that's why LG tell people to pull off the plastic dust protector that it comes with on the back of the screen part as people that have left it on have had heat build up and it's ruined their tv. Will be OK on the speaker part at the bottom or just buy an rgb bar or those lamps you can put by the side of the tv that have the same (well actually a better) effect.
@@mattg768 I've put it around the square with all the components on the Sony a80J. So far everything seems good, the TV never gets warm either though🤷♂️
Does anyone else have a problem with the LED strip coming on by themselves while hooked up to your 5V dc USB PORT on the back of your TV??
Who finna pay $100 for some lights? 🤣
Clean the area with rubbing alcohol first and they will stick
Yeah that’s always good to do
So wait.. if the light strips will fall off because of the hot tv melting the adhesive, wouldn't it melt off the cable clips too because those are adhesive as well??! Uhh 😅😅 😂
Just use heavy duty double sided tape
U can easily use a cello tape to stick it😂😂😂
Hi tech block it’s almost my birthday November 21st
I have 4 hrs of sleep
0.40 it happened to me:(
LMFAO
Can I get a heart
YEET
Fuck that I’m using duck tape
This clips are...self adhesive as well and according to yourself is going to fail on a hot surface...why bother?
The LEDs I bought for 5.99 at Walmart have stuck to the back of my TV for the past 3 years no problems.
By any chance are they the monster basics? I got those last year at Walmart for $5 and they’ve never let me down 🥰
@@gissellec.3277 lol yeah
I just used tape lol
Haha that works too
Anyone think these lights over time could damege the screen the pixels are sumink
I have 2$ strip 😑😒
But realy
didn't help at all NEXT
Sorry but they don’t work. They have fallen off twice and I have had to bin them. Totally useless!
Could you have done a less, I couldn’t give a fuck, job?!
