    In theory this should be a cheap version of Philips ambilight but unfortunately it's just too slow to react. It's always half a second behind what's happening on screen and it is just too noticeable and annoying as scenes change so you soon turn it off again.

    That's why the newer T2 version is apparently miles better. And a lot more expensive.

    I've been trying to figure out the difference but the pro isn't on the website. But from amazon pictures I've seen the £36 has colour sense and the £40 one has colour match

    Always a controversial product, seems to be a love/hate for them. Personally I was on the fence about them until I was bought them earlier in the year and I’m a full convert now. I love using them for films and games, I’d miss not having them. Is the camera a bit ugly, yes, but you get over it and forget it’s there. I think for £40 they are really good value. I will say, spend some time refining the colour and camera setup, it makes all the difference. I also recommend movie mode rather than game, the colour transition a little smoother with movie. But personal preference on that.

    Looks great!

    Does it require a WIFI connection to work once configured? I suppose you could always block it going out on the internet from your router.

    Don’t bother if you own an Oled. Way too thin for the camera to attach to, not bad lights tbf

    I bought an IKEA Lack shelf to go under my LG CX, and dremelled a cutout for the camera. That way the camera is at the bottom of the screen and in a dark room you can’t see it.

    I posted this last time this product came up last week:

    If you're planning to interact with these through the the API making calls to them externally, be aware that Govee severely limited the rates in which you can interact with the lights within their system.

    Total Calls Per day (Works on All APIs): 10,000
    X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, X-RateLimit-Reset (this level of limit works on all APIs, which means total requests from one user can not be more than 1000 per day).

    API-RateLimit-Limit, API-RateLimit-Remaining, API-RateLimit-Reset.
    DeviceList 10 per minute
    DeviceControl 10 per minute per device
    DeviceState 10 per minute per device

    This hamstrings you a bit if you're looking to do complex interactions. I bought these earlier in the week and returned them after 2 days. Great lights, terrible ecosystem.

    Good info.
    Is all processing performed on device or shipped to a data server to work when using this normally with a TV?
    Can you block access to the web from the router for these devices and have them still work?

    Good price, I use these with the Samsung G9 Neo gaming Monitor 49inches. Now its not advertised to work with bigger screens but I can happily say it will. It requires some fiddling about with the camera mount and calibration settings but you can achieve the desired looking RGB in the end. Word of warning for anyone; I've found that if your turn down the saturation in the settings it doesn't change the colours or temperature but gives me a more arcuate reading of what's on the screen. Happy to answer any qurestionms

    Can you use the lights without making use of the camera, like control the lights via an app for a standard colour or DIY mode?

    I bought some of these a month or so ago and I found em pretty disappointing when gaming tbh (Haven't tried watching a movie with them yet).

    Maybe I just need to play around with settings but when it's a dark scene the lights almost always go red, and when it's white on the screen the lights go blue. Stays stuck like that for ages too during cutscenes.

    Can you turn these on/off with Alexa? I would only really want them on when watching movies etc. Do you have to have the colour linked to the camera or can you have a static colour?
    JDK90's avatar
    JDK90
    Yeah I do this all the time. I've set up scenes in Govee which you can then utilise inside Alexa Routines.

    LordFlashHeart's avatar

    They're great but if you change your TV or monitor it might not stick to the new one. That's the reason I bought the bars as I changed TV's a few Months later so swapping over was easy.
  21. elliothyndman's avatar

    I use these on the back of my dual PC monitors. The app is great for controlling colours and timers. I don't use the camera because privacy and what not. Plus I dont really need them for that.
    At this price, I would highly recommend.

    I've got them too, makes a great addition to the TV and viewing experience definitely!

    wondering if I should get this with or without the camera.... not too bothered about it being same colour as screen
    LordFlashHeart's avatar
    LordFlashHeart
    If you're not going to buy it with the camera you might as well just buy a USB powered strip of LEDs and plug them in to your tv.

    Do they come with anything to attach them to the back of a TV or just the stands?
    AdamAsh's avatar
    AdamAsh
    The stands come with sticky pads and can be used to hold the sticks on the back of your TV.

    No god it TV’s on the wall
    The.Fat.Cat's avatar
    The.Fat.Cat
    They have brackets with sitcky pads so you can stick to the back of the TV.
    Only problem is if the lights are too close to the wall it doesn't work well.

    It says 27-45" TV's. Why would it not work on a 75” TV ?
    The.Fat.Cat's avatar
    The.Fat.Cat
    I think it's a case of them not being tall enough, so the colours on the wall behind wouldn't quite match up with what's on the screen.
    They have the LED strips you can stick on the back for bigger screens.

    I've just got some basic Govee led strips but very impressed. Got it at the back of the tv. Yeah, it doesn't change colour like this but the camera just puts me off. It sticks out alot and would probably annoy me.

    But great price for the product, good post op
    LordFlashHeart's avatar
    LordFlashHeart
    I thought the camera being visible would annoy me too but you stop noticing it after a while.

    Would this work with a 65” tv and if not is there a link for one that would please?
    Tadpole78's avatar
    Tadpole78
    I'm wondering the same. Have been itching for something like this, and at this price it's very tempting. Probably stupid, but if my tv is on a sideboard type thing, I'm wondering could I even put the bars on something to raise them up a little.

    My TV is 82" and wall mounted very high so this isn't suitable, any recommendations for the same "ambilight" setup with light strips? Thanks
    The.Fat.Cat's avatar
    The.Fat.Cat
    Govee also do this for bigger TV's.
    It says 65" max but it will actually work OK on bigger than that -
