You should open up your fireplace and put some leds in there too... I did it on mine and I love it. I actually have a demo on my page... 😊 I actually used the diffusers you recommended when I installed mine
Great minds think alike! That was next on my to do list! I just watched your video and it looks incredible! For sure adds to the setup. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
Hi great post, looks amazing. I've just bought the Fancy LED's 2.1 with 3 HDMI, setting it up over the weekend connected to the Samsung S95C 77". I did have the Govee with the camera, which did a job but the Fancy LED's are going to take it to a whole new level. I am thinking about purchasing the Fancy Neon, can you advise if the Neon Strip can be twisted/bent at a 90 degree angle to fit around the corner of a TV stand.
Love the video! The lighting is amazing! I have a 120 in screen for a UST projector what do you recommend for ambilight solution for this situation? Thank you so much.
You could use this setup and use their led strips to build it out! I also did more of a diy option with my 120" ust setup that you should check out: ua-cam.com/video/oJSHDFETdV8/v-deo.html
Looks like they are almost there, if it could connect directly to the box and you could configure the strips location better it would be perfect. That said I don't have a fancy living room cabinet like that so would be straight lines for me, just that 2.4ghz wifi works horribly in my area.
Thanks! Definitely going to try it at some point! I did already go the diy route using signal RGB. Not quite the same as Hyperion but a similar concept.
I have an 85 inch Sony TV. the dimensions are 74 x 43 inches which will be 19.5 feet of led's which is more than the 5 meters. What's the led strip type I would need to buy to extend it? I will probably need power injection for that many led's. Can I use a separate power supply to do the power injection? Would I need to connect the ground of the separate power supply to the ground from the Syncbox power for that to work? Thank you for any help or suggestions.
Thanks for watching. Their sync box includes lights to put behind your TV. The 75 to 95 inch kit included more than 5 meters and will be enough to go around your 85 inch Sony TV.
Hello I have fancy leds but i must say , Dolby vision have issue with oversaturate color, Medium and high setup is almost the same... you have the same issue?
It's a close call. Hoping to do a head to head comparison video at some point since I now have both installed to really get a good idea of how they stack up against each other.
Thanks! I'm doing good other than a nasty cold that has destroyed my voice! I'm starting to feel better but my voice is still pretty gone. Thanks for asking!
Hello Chris, I'm putting WLED lights in a tray ceiling. They will reflect off of the ceiling no direct viewing. I'm I put WS 2815 LED strips on a prior project and they work fine but in my trey ceiling I wanted to have a dedicated white channel, Looking at BTF lights 5050 have RGB plus a cool white and cold and only half the price of WS 2815 I'm curious as to why the 5050 which has their own dedicated white channel are cheaper than the WS 2815 Anyone have any answers for me Is there any downside to putting in the 5050 RGBW?
I’ve been debating the Bravia 8 VS the C4 myself. I’ve watched many reviews, but they never mention the speakers as a selling point for the Bravia 8. Would you consider a video about how you came to your purchasing decision?
Lol I have a long answer but the short answer is i think the Sony a95l is the gold standard for OLED TVs and the difference between the a95l and the Bravia 8 is noticeable, but not by much. The c4 also looks good but I trust Sonys software more than lg in terms of upscaling and motion smoothing technology.
Because of your review I replaced my Govee systems that uses a camera with FancyLeds. I am mostly satisfied however, my leds don’t turn off when parts of the screen goes black, and just shows a dimmed color which everyone talks about and doesn’t like. My theory is that it depends on the tv and if your TV’s dimming zones and how it’s executed. It’s dependent on how a tv shows true black. Anyway that’s my theory and I hope there is a fix for it. If anyone has input or ideas please comment.
Thanks for watching! Tons of people like diy stuff and tons of people like plug n play products. This might be more your speed if you like diy stuff. ua-cam.com/video/oJSHDFETdV8/v-deo.html
Thanks for the forecast! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
Is it possible to run this as a service and ambient reactive lighting for Tv and game setup do you recommend? I enjoyed your custom that you personally setup better but if fancy lights gives the same affect and I’m just gullible then so be it then lmao.
This works great for gaming and TV. But not for internal tv apps. You have to have an HDMI device. If your a PC gamer you could run your HDMI out to this and then to the TV or monitor. Hopefully they will make a display port version at some point!
The voice ia in the video translates the voice of the song at the end of the video and it is very annoying to hear a robotic voice covering the original song. Great video indeed.
Thanks for watching and glad your enjoyed the video! Lol yeah I think that's a feature UA-cam is trying where it automatically dubs the video into different languages.
That's because everybody is overdoing it to make it look shinier for UA-cam. Just the TV and maybe the bottom one and it really adds to the experience without being to distracting. :D
Not even gonna watch it all. Too expencive for the regular person in today economy. We can't all have them sent to us for free or significantly discounted.
Don’t be rude just because he’s doing a review of a product you can’t afford. This is for people who really want the tv ambiance with an easy setup. Ease = Pricey, always has always will
I bought a fancyleds 2.1 sync box and it has blackout issues whenever gaming at all unfortunately and their support team refunded me but left me in limbo on whether or not they will send me another box or if i should purchase again.

What’s the best way to get in touch with you @ChrisMaherDYI?
Got my fancyleds sync box last month, absolutely love it. Thanks for the video, Chris. Might need to pick these up aswell.
This is super impressive. Thanks for the info and the black friday links.
I got the Govee SyncBox and a couple floor lights. I love the vibe.
Congrats on the new house, all the lighting looks fantastic 👍
Thanks for watching! We really love it!
Just discovered your channel while researching the Hbada E3 Pro. LOVING your content! Subbed!
Thanks so much for the kind words! Glad you're enjoying the videos and thanks for the sub!
I’d love to see a comparison between these and the Govee HDMI Sync Box.
I'm hoping to do a comparison video at some point! It will be an epic battle!
@@ChrisMaherDIY AND Philips Hue Gradient play strips!
And the new sync box of Philips hue
You should open up your fireplace and put some leds in there too... I did it on mine and I love it. I actually have a demo on my page... 😊
I actually used the diffusers you recommended when I installed mine
Great minds think alike! That was next on my to do list! I just watched your video and it looks incredible! For sure adds to the setup. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
Happy Black Friday Chris.
Earlier this year you did a video where you talked about a wireless HDMI device. Can you tell me what device you recommended or what video it was?
Good memory! Here is the video: ua-cam.com/video/oJSHDFETdV8/v-deo.html and here is the wireless hdmi device I used: Wireless HDMI: amzn.to/44t7Ms1

Does the SyncBox take into account colored walls? I want to make sure accurate color is depicted.
Looks like they are almost there, if it could connect directly to the box and you could configure the strips location better it would be perfect.
That said I don't have a fancy living room cabinet like that so would be straight lines for me, just that 2.4ghz wifi works horribly in my area.
Yeah having the option to connect to the box would be great! Good Internet definitely helps with products like this. Thanks for watching!
Which do you recommend more? The Lytmi fantasy 3 or this??
bro wled with hyperion would be a great option
you can even use 144 Led per meter
and also you can sync it how ever you want to
Thanks! Definitely going to try it at some point! I did already go the diy route using signal RGB. Not quite the same as Hyperion but a similar concept.

@@ChrisMaherDIY Thank you! Your channel is awesome.
Maybe a sudpid question. But how do you power up the other 2 strips?
It works only with devices that connected to the syncbox, right? It's not gonna work with native smart tv apps
Hello I have fancy leds but i must say , Dolby vision have issue with oversaturate color, Medium and high setup is almost the same... you have the same issue?
Chris, what do you use to cut your diffusers?
I've used a miter saw before but in this video I just used some aluminum cutters. amzn.to/49lz5Hd
Is this something you would have turned if you were watching 'regular' TV like the evening news or a program like Chicago Fire?
Will you make a video on the Govee AI Sync Box 2?
what about the new GoVee 2.1 box?
I'm hoping to do a comparison video at some point down the road since I now have both! It would be a fun video to do!
Do you prefer this or govee so sync box 2
It's a close call. Hoping to do a head to head comparison video at some point since I now have both installed to really get a good idea of how they stack up against each other.
Hi chris , I'm a big fan of your content! I've noticed some variations in your tone lately. Is all well?
Thanks! I'm doing good other than a nasty cold that has destroyed my voice! I'm starting to feel better but my voice is still pretty gone. Thanks for asking!
Take care
Can the Hue Sync app be used? I think it currently looks a bit too intense since all the light transitions are instant
No it won't work with hue. You can turn the transitions down on the sync box so it's less sudden. Definitely a personal preference.

Why is your fireplace not synced yet?!?! lol
Lol it's been on my mind! It would actually be amazing if I could do it. We shall see!
Would you please tell what the song is at the end of the video that is playing as you demo the unit
Sick!
Waiting for year when these will work with android tv builts in apps

Assuming these aren’t compatible with HA? Sure I asked this in the last video about these so I apologise!
Thanks for watching! I have not tried using this with HA so I'm not sure. It is comparable with Alexa and Google home.

These look great, it's a shame they are so expensive tho
Thanks for watching! It's definitely not cheap but it is half the price of what Philips charges for theirb ambilight setup
looks like lytmi

I'll never be a fan of those ambilight sync setups. Incredibly distracting, but the tech itself is nice.
True, the lights take too much space in the room. Espacially with small displays
Ikr, never been a fan of it, only would turn it on if it was background content
Thanks for watching! Have you seen something like this in person? I know it's for sure not everyone's style.
That's because everybody is overdoing it to make it look shinier for UA-cam. Just the TV and maybe the bottom one and it really adds to the experience without being to distracting. :D
@@CrazyPat3000 nah, the standard Philips ambilight which is only the TV is already driving me crazy if it isn't a really chill program
