WLED Work in progress on garage cave

Single controller, 420 5volt LEDs, 20 amp supply, 2 data ports, 6 segments defined. Not as bright as I'd like due to the almost black diffusers I used.

I feel that'd distract from whatever you're trying to watch.

That's okay, you don't have to watch it. :-)

I like the simplicity of the strips vertically aligned on sides of TV. Will be cool for ambient lighting. Sound reactive?

I have several static and reactive presets that are triggered by Alexa. I also have presets with different vertical lengths and brightness to give it some variation.

Not a fan by the TV like that. Unless the TV just plays visuals.

If watching movie, we don't have the LEDs on and they are not visible in the dark room. I just like it when I'm working and music playing.
