If you’ve got a holiday party or gathering coming up, Nanoleaf’s Essentials Matter Smart Holiday String Lights will help set the mood without putting a dent in your wallet. Typically $119.99, right now, the 65-foot string lights are only $44.99 at Best Buy, which is significantly cheaper than they were on Black Friday and a new all-time low.
Damn, now that’s a good deal!
@pratik I’ve used Nanoleaf stuff and had good experiences either it. Never tried Govee. But the middle connection would be kind of weird.
@stupendousman @pratik They put the power supply in the middle to get the most reliable signaling all the way down to each end. The part you cut off can be reused by carefully cutting back the waterproof coating and soldering new leads onto the pads, but you need to know what you’re doing.
Holy smokes. Ordered → delivered to doorstep in 25 hours. Not even Amazon gets here that fast.
Thank you for this tip. I knew this would be a hit so I ordered two. They were an even bigger hit than I imagined, so I just ordered three more!
The firmware upgrade was very flaky and failed repeatedly (which may be why they put them on sale) but it eventually worked. Persistence pays off!
@fgtech Cool! Glad it worked out for you.
