## Description

The product voltage arrange is 120V

Review: Super easy install - works great - Really easy to install - love that they give you the plastic guides to install on the TV and then you just snap in the lights (versus other lights I've purchased, where you have to use adhesive on the light strip itself to stick them on - this works much better, allows you to install more confidently and line everything up so that it's even on both sides). I do wish they had a way to get lights across the bottom of my TV, though. These just go across the top and about 80% of the way down the left and right back side. If you have your TV on a stand, this is fine. But my 65% TV is mounted, with nothing below, so you don't get any lights shining down on the big open wall or floor. Having said that, it'd be hard to install across the bottom, as that's where my TV mount attaches. I ended up buying some floor hue lights, and have them shining up at the TV. Overall, these are great! I've had many cheap $30-50 light strips on the back of TVs over the years, and these feel high quality, worthy of their high price, and - with the hue play and iphone app - super easy to install and use. Even my wife was impressed when I played a Marvel movie. It's like surround sound, but for light. note: I tried putting extra hue lights behind the couch, next to my sonos surround sounds, and realized your eyes don't really see anything to the side (and obviously you don't see things behind you)....your focus is 100% ahead of you (about 145 degrees, not 180+). So this strip plus a few of the bars on the floor work great.
Review: What you probably don’t know… - It does what you expect. On top of the Gradient Lightstrip for my TV, I also bought the play bars. You can isolate each light into individual colors. If you’re not new to the LED scene, then know you should be familiar with setting scenes with the app. When everything arrived, I immediately started setting up. The first problem I had was connecting the bridge to the internet. The first two lights came on but not the third. Without being connected to the internet, I can’t access the bridge with the app or move on with the rest of the installation. The solution to that, was that I plugged the network cable it came with from the bridge to the splitter I have. Come to find out, the bridge doesn’t work with splitters. Technically, the protocol doesn’t allow for it. You have to directly connect it to the router. I have a 70 inch Samsung Smart TV. I bought the 65” light strip. After setting up all the lights, the bridge, and the sync box, I was excited to play something colorful like Avatar or Spiderman(across the spiderverse). So, having smart tv and all I had to do was press the Netflix button on my remote and it brings me to the TV app(There’s a reason I say that) BUT, starting a movie, the lights just dimmed to the lowest white light and they were not synced to what was being shown on screen. The app kept showing me that nothing was connected to the sync box. I of course didn’t understand if I connect my tv to the box. After hours of research, I’ve done everything I could from getting different HDMI cables, to switching ends, to factory resetting the sync box, to seeing if my tv needed to be updated. I was afraid I bought a defective sync box. My last last thing to try was to call customer support. Surprisingly, after dialing the number, less than 5 minutes, I was on the phone with someone, which is impressive. Come to find out… to have lights sync, you can’t use it with TV Applications. You have to have a second source such as a PlayStation, Xbox, Firestick and so on. After learning that, I connected my PlayStation to the sync box, went to a YouTube video and it worked. So if you’re having this same issue, hopefully I was able to help someone out. Looking it up, I wasn’t the only one stumped with this same problem. All in all, after I got it to work, it’s amazing! The lights on top of a surround sound system, you don’t have to go to the movies anymore. You have an enhanced theater right in front of you. If you’re not watching TV, you can still work the lights with the app and either set a scene or choose whatever color(s) you prefer. It’s expensive for no reason. But you get what you pay for and that’s quality. You won’t be disappointed. P.S. The Bridge, Sync Box, and the Lights all use a big box plug. The blocky ones. So I had to utilize another power strip to get everything plugged in and working on top of everything I already had plugged.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why is this so expensive? because you can charge this much?**
A: I think he's talking about scalpers trying to sell this for $400. Yeah, they're charging this much because they think they can get away with it. Show them they won't, wait until it gets restocked and is ship and sold by Amazon, or get it at Best Buy, which doesn't seem to have supply issues with this particular item.

**Q: can i buy a 65inch lightstrip on a 55inch tv? since i want my tv surround 4way not 3way**
A: Won't be long enough. Buy the 55 inch and then another short one to string along the bottom. Sync app will allow you to map that one to the bottom of the screen for color signals.

**Q: Does it work with 49” ultrawide monitor ? Or any suggestions?**
A: It should.  I bought the one for the 75 Samsung so this won’t work for the 49 monitor.  However they do have smaller versions you can get.

**Q: Old bridge? I have the older model of the phillips hue lights. Will the older model bridge work with this newer model of lightstrip?**
A: Yes, the older Hue Bridge works with the gradient light strip. I know because I have this exact setup myself (and it says they are compatible on the Hue website).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s always a party with these lights.
*by T***I on January 10, 2026*

Great lights. Makes movies and anything you’re watching better. Try watching The Force Awakens when Kylo Ren is fighting Rey and they’re dueling it out with light sabers. Or, if you’re a raver like me, open up YouTube and search for a DJ set and watch the lights go crazy (in an awesome way). Lights are insanely easy to install. Find the center at the top of your TV, take the center black clip and peel back the adhesive and attach it to the top center at the border of the tv. Then just stick on the remaining clips. I also bought the hue light bulbs and I can now have a full-on dance party. Tis all 🤷🏻‍♂️
