    Hey Chris I really love the work that you do I think decorating with lights is very important it creates moods almost cinematic, in San Diego many years ago, we had a great lounge called airport lounge and that’s where I determined how important was to paint with light, except it was too expensive more than decade, now it’s affordable and have many options.I think your videos and work you do it very tastefully. I’ve seen a lot of guys doing it and they overdo it. There’s one thing I wanted to ask you maybe something that you could do a video. Have you seen those vertical light lamps. Like the Noxu design? Is this something you can make a tutorial about it? Maybe HomeKit compatible?

    I dig these big time. Did you have a chance to check out the Govee triangles? I am guessing they are thew same specs, have same patterns but just a different shape. Or do you know if one product seems to look better?. I have not seen a direct comparison between the two. Thanks for any info. Peace

    • @ChrisMaherDIY
      @ChrisMaherDIY  2 роки тому

      I have not tried the triangles yet but from what I can tell they look almost identical. I really do love the lights and think they look more evenly lit than the nanoleaf brand. The only thing that I would change on the Govee brand was to improve the connecting process. (I think nanoleaf makes this easier) and I wish they would be able to block the slight glow of color emitted out the back that bounces off the walls (this is more of a personal preference as I'm sure some people really like this aspect)

    • @rkellyrodgers6516
      @rkellyrodgers6516 Рік тому +1

      I have these and i am an active member on the app. Some people have reported damage to the surfaces upon removal. I didnt want to damage anything so i decided on a design and found a piece of ply wood that i attached the panels to and then i hung it like a picture on the wall. It also made changing the design easy...which leads me to my question. Chris i have had multiple connectors break and Govee has replaced them but could they be soldered to repair or possibly lengthen so you could have a group of panels thatare farther away from the main group?

    I might just picks these up. I got a pair of their Lyra lamps for the Black Friday sale on Amazon for $98 each. Maybe it’s time to get these. But they r a pretty penny. Might wait till they are on sale again. I do have a $50 Amazon credit which would help.

    • @ChrisMaherDIY
      @ChrisMaherDIY  2 роки тому

      Yeah the Lyra for 98 each is a great deal! I don't think you would be disappointed. They really are impressive and what I liked most about it was the even color. There were not any spots on the hexagons that were a little less bright. I'm sure they will go on sale eventually. Govee always seems to be running deals! Thanks for watching!

    • @ChrisMaherDIY
      @ChrisMaherDIY  Рік тому +1

      If I remember correctly there is a little room for a gap with the connector pieces but not much. If I had to guess I would say about 1 inch is the max! Thanks so much for watching!

  • @tr1ksh0t88
    @tr1ksh0t88 Рік тому +1

    Do you know how long these would last if the app automatically turned them off at night and on at 100% brightness for the rest of the day everyday? Also would you say these are good for static colors with no special modes?

    • @ChrisMaherDIY
      @ChrisMaherDIY  Рік тому

      Thanks for watching! I'm not sure how long they would last. I do know that LEDs have a very long life span so I would imagine it would be a while. These do get very bright so I think they would work great for just everyday usage as a light source!

      Thanks so much for watching! I think these specific light panels you can only connect 1 together. (unless a recent software change come out that i'm not aware of that allows you to connect 2 of these sets together) But I think the new gove hexa 3d panels allow you to connect up to 2 of the sets together. Thanks!

      Yeah they are definitely on the expensive side of things for Govee although if you compare them in price with Nanoleaf they are still less expensive. But Govee always seems to be running sales so I'm sure they will have these discounted eventually!

    • @craig8128
      @craig8128 Рік тому

      Just MHO: the (impressively flexible) control & layout app is justification for buying these over DIY. I’m a software engineer, I could theoretically write my own app to control a DIY setup, but it would be ridiculously expensive in terms of time. Also, note that the app supports a number of Govee products - so when you want to light ‘em up, it’s one app to control them all. Nice.
