Gaming ‘Lights’

[The Torrent]

I got £300 to spend on a bedroom light don’t ask why lol.

its quite a small bedroom.

 

I'm wondering if there’s any ‘gaming’ lights orientated to gamers. Something like a room light which changes with Razer chroma so red/black I’m game, white in menu etc. Seems quite cool.

well, i can't think of anything that syncs with chroma

 

but if i recall correctly, hue does sync with aura

 

and it doesn't cost 300 bucks

Hue seems good, just their actual lights look a bit shit

You can buy the philips bulbs and put them in any lights.

I guess so but I mean like the shape of the light looks so dumb lol.

 

anyone know if it’s possible to use a controller like Philips hue controller or even a Corsair one to control third party light strips? I got loads of ws2418 (controller) and just 5050 ones lying around.
