I’d generally describe my design tastes as minimalist/industrialist so buying something extraneous to put in my room was a first for me. Part of my decision to buy what I did was practical, the one light in my room simply isn’t bright enough, but I also thought it was something fun that I could always incorporate into a project if I got bored. With very little background research and information I spent $40 on a 5m LED light strip and audio controller. It was one of the best decisions I ever made.
The parts I ordered can be found here and here. I’ve only had it installed for a week but so far I’ve been pretty impressed. The audio response works pretty well (watch the video below), and the lights also work great to supplement my one room light. I ordered a second strip to fill up more of the ceiling so I’ll definitely be making another post on this in the future. Check out a video of them in action below:
