This is so GREAT for me to recommend to family that thinks I am Mad for Home Assistant and WLED but this needs little skill! I bought one last night, arrived today. Stuck it on a board to make it portable (hanging) and my WAF is through the ROOF! I must’ve shared a link to this video 10 times in the 2 days! Thanks!!
Recently visited Japan and went to TeamLabs where they had a huge room with drooping LED's which were set to so many beautiful and unique animations which I though would be amazing to incorporate in a room setting! This would be perfect!
It looks pretty cool, I think it is better to wait till some offer comes out, govee light bars started at $180 and some times it is on discounts, you get it for $110
Lol I bought it recently to hook up some of my old school consoles! For sure brings me back to my childhood. And yes, it does have a built in dvd player that still works!
Finally! Curtain lights/fairy lights s something Ive been looking for forever. I'm surprised it took so long to get a smart version of this style of lights.
This is absolutely HUGE!! I love my curtain lights and smartified them with smart plugs but gosh the second these are available in Germany I am gonna get them! Just the possibility to use these as wakeup lights next to my bed, or anything else really its Huge....
Incredible patterns and displays you could get really creative with these especially during the Holidays and special occasions Thanks for the Info Chris as Always
I watched this at work with no sound; so may have missed this if there's audio. I don't see where you ultimately hooked up the power supply? Thanks! =).
This is super cool, I have a few other govee products. The back of TV lights, some color changing bulbs, and a table lamp that does some similar designs as this
hey chris could you do a video on different govee lights that are just as good as the M1 but not as expensive for the same build that you’ve done with the m1? Or can you just give me a recommendation that won’t have hot spots in it?
This is basically a consumer version of the LED wall I built on my channel! It's great to see more accessible options for people who want large matrixes in their space. I wish this had more features like the ability to display GIFs since the preset animations are a bit underwhelming. The sound reactive modes look amazing though and I'm sure this is going to be a very popular product.
Just watched your video and your wall killed this curtain. Something tells me your project is their end goal especially with COB strips that they currently have available. This seems like a tech demo at best a prototype some CEO saw and thought “it’s good enough for a quick buck”
I’m thinking about putting these behind my curtains in my movie room. I have blackout shades behind them and regular curtains infront. These designs passing thru would be super cool.
These are cool, but I don't see myself using these. Nice video as always though, you know it! 😋 Hope you're having a great end of the week now, we're having midsummer festivities tomorrow, not sure if or when you celebrate it - but it is kind of the middle of summer, so I wish you a great midsummer no matter what! 😋 Have an awesome weekend Chris! ❤
Are you able to put scenes or finger-sketches on a timer? If so, how many timers for each scene or sketch? And are the number of timers determined by whether you're using Bluetooth or wifi to connect? Thanks.
I love that this reacts to audio, but my only issue with that feature is isolating the audio to ONLY the music. When I have a party, the visuals are no longer accurately reflecting the audio of the music because it is picking up the audio from conversations, laughter, and other sounds. Is there a way to isolate the music audio to Govee?
@@ChrisMaherDIY completely understand I’m doing the same but further back in time with VHS! MiniDV! Chris I love videos! Brilliant stuff! I’m planning a project, a 3 x 3 meter wall full of LEDs that respond to movement via hidden camera (like those govee TV stuff) and also responded to Alexa or Siri commands (like that awake light indicator) all hidden behind a large diffuser!
Hi Chris, Love your work. If I wanted to cut the cable between the controller and the curtain lights and extend it longer than 3 meters, say to 6 or 7 meters, would I loose any brightness in the lights. Thanks
Hey! Love your videos. I’ve noticed the music feature on the curtains are much better than the dream view music options. Do you know if it’s possible to program the music box outside of dreamview to use those effects or any other external mix? Thank you ❤️
I wish the could be turned on the side as windows tend to be not that high .. I don't want this on a well ..but on a window for xmas messages and pictures
Love it conceptually, but the lack of regulation from the twisting kills it for me. May get a string to try pulling taut and mounting the bottom side with the string twisted the correct way.
These are really cool! Quick question I am wanting to put some LEDs on the bottom of my boat trailer to light up the road and the water. Do you have a suggestion of what LED strips would be be best to use for the price? I am also wanting to hook them up to work with my trailer lights. I am pretty sure since they will be dunked in water often that they will need to be IP67 or IP68. Any sugesstions on lights and wiring?
Thanks Chris for this lovely video, as usual. Govee has replied to my email that the Curtain Lights will be available in the UK on July 24, so I look forward to this.
THIS!!!!! Thanks for sharing this video, Chris. I'm an online elementary school teacher and have been looking for ways to trigger reactions for kids during class. How long is the delay for the curtain to respond to an input? I would love to create some triggered effects via a stream deck command.
Thats such a cool idea!! Its wifi and bluetooth so the reaction times were pretty quick. I'd say within 1 second. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!
Are they easy to take down when you don’t want to see the strangling light strings? In other words when you’re not using them, are they easy to take down or do you suggest any way to have a better luck when you’re not using them?
Thanks so much for watching! I for sure want to try seeing what effect it would have (for better or worse) if i put them all in a separate diffuser channel. I hope to at some point give that a try!
You can put them up however you like but I did not use them in front of my windows. Just hung them on the wall. I also put them on my garage door outside which looked great! I did a video on that as well!
Ummmm is there a control receiver box before it plugs in for power? Can we wire this to a DMX encoder?!?! 😮😮😮😮 low cost low budget led wall for youth or cheap music video/concert?!
i sent this idea a while ago on how to better do diy animations in the app. Its nice to finally see it implemented. The app overall has gotten better with new products, but I'm afraid we'll never see updates for existing products. Govee's sku lineup is already beyond confusing and the majority of their app with double or triple feature sections duplicated is equally as cumbersome.

I think there could possibly be some really cool implementation with those especially if these were diffused behind curtains or sheets.
Agreed. The desktop app is a joke. I have been wanting to build some sort of video wall similar to Bitluni and am hoping that eventually this will allow us to do that.
Hi, I was just wondering, how are you getting such great sound syncing in audio mode? I have the M1 lights but the control box is furthest from my tv as it needs to be in the corner of the room the T2 tv backlight and now the curtain lights but i find the music will only really recognise footsteps or other loud noises. I would have to play the music very loudly in order for it to be picked up and... well i live in an apartment and can't make too much noise. Is there something i can get to improve sound syncing with my TV?
Do you think it would be safe to use these as a curtain for a door? like to walk through? it would be cool to come up with a minecraft nether portal animation
Sad that these companies don't provide a local network api which you can sent text from your domotica, pictures, gifs, etc from. Since adafruit came with the individual addressed leds I have been waiting for a good commercial product. This comes close, but like my Govee tiles on the wall, the app's scenes or the static ones you can create become dull pretty soon. It needs some actual functionality or linkage.
Thanks so much for watching! What's awesome about these is that they will allow you to connect up to 3 of these together but you are not physically connecting them. This will all be done by the software in the app. So this means you could place these anywhere in your room and they would still act as a single unit even though they are not physically connected. It just opens up so many more options for how you can use these! And if you connect 3 of these together, its going to cover a huge space! Close to 5 meters across and 2 meters down.

I love that you have one room dedicated to LED projects and it keeps getting better and better!
Congratulations on 100k man. Been watching since the very beginning. Been awesome to watch you grow. Keep it up!
This is so GREAT for me to recommend to family that thinks I am Mad for Home Assistant and WLED but this needs little skill! I bought one last night, arrived today.

I just ordered them, they give off such an Cyberpunk vibe I love it
Was literally looking at these over the weekend for my mobile Karaoke setup. Thanks for the review!
The YT algorithm is getting better and better. Great channel here! Good work! Just recently reviewed these curtain, lights, and love them!
Thanks so much! I'm a huge fan of yours! Keep up the good work. I hope someday my production value will be as good as yours!
@@ChrisMaherDIY Thanks man! I just finished watching your dream gaming set up video. Beautiful set up and Amazing production quality and edits ;)
Recently visited Japan and went to TeamLabs where they had a huge room with drooping LED's which were set to so many beautiful and unique animations which I though would be amazing to incorporate in a room setting! This would be perfect!
I made it literally 3 seconds into the video before heading to Amazon to purchase. Thanks for the discount code!
Very interesting, imagine a huge diffuser for this
A shower curtain liner might work pretty well as a diffuser!
probably can get a couple of 4ftx8ft frosted acrylic panels to cover these on the wall..
I wonder if it would affect the animation "resolution" though? Like would something like the moon or planet be hard to make out
I love the crt tv with the VCR lol
Giant baking paper sheet
Amongst the budget LED brands available, Govee does seem to be offering some good products.
Thank you Chris.
If you stacked a bunch of these in front of each other you would have a humongous led cube! You could even walk through it :) Thanks for the vid.
Is the amazon link wrong? Because it's not the curtain for me it's neon led lights
Twinkly have had this for many years (and their LEDs are amazing!) but its nice to get some competition.
You are the best channel when it comes to blinky lights. Thanks for all the info.
It looks pretty cool, I think it is better to wait till some offer comes out, govee light bars started at $180 and some times it is on discounts, you get it for $110
4:13 lol you have that tube TV with something that looks like a built-in DVD player!!
Lol I bought it recently to hook up some of my old school consoles! For sure brings me back to my childhood. And yes, it does have a built in dvd player that still works!
@@ChrisMaherDIY heheh good one there! What kind of input does it require for the "old school" consoldes? RF? (sounds like Pong!)
What was the song that plays at the 6 minute mark please?
Congrats on 100K subscribers, Chris!
Finally! Curtain lights/fairy lights s something Ive been looking for forever. I'm surprised it took so long to get a smart version of this style of lights.
This is excellent! I knew this was coming sooner or later. I REALLY hope Govee is sponsoring you!!😉
Would love to do a DIY diffused light panel with these and mount to a ceiling 😍
This is absolutely HUGE!! I love my curtain lights and smartified them with smart plugs but gosh the second these are available in Germany I am gonna get them! Just the possibility to use these as wakeup lights next to my bed, or anything else really its Huge....
Chris, congratulations on getting to 100k subscribers, Way to go!
The next step would be connecting the curtain to wled and from there with Xlights. Did you already tried to connect it with wled?
Incredible patterns and displays you could get really creative with these especially during the Holidays and special occasions Thanks for the Info Chris as Always

Gifs would make it a winner!
Bro! I saw your vid, and you for the first time, last week. This came up and you crossed my mind. 🤯
Just watched your video and your wall killed this curtain. Something tells me your project is their end goal especially with COB strips that they currently have available. This seems like a tech demo at best a prototype some CEO saw and thought “it’s good enough for a quick buck”
It’s basically a low res tv.
@@pozleo78 a low resolution display. it has no tuner and cannot connect to video sources. for the price, it's a pretty sweet item.though.
I’m thinking about putting these behind my curtains in my movie room. I have blackout shades behind them and regular curtains infront. These designs passing thru would be super cool.
These are cool, but I don't see myself using these. Nice video as always though, you know it! 😋 Hope you're having a great end of the week now, we're having midsummer festivities tomorrow, not sure if or when you celebrate it - but it is kind of the middle of summer, so I wish you a great midsummer no matter what! 😋

Love your music taste! Is there a public playlist you can share?
Are you able to put scenes or finger-sketches on a timer? If so, how many timers for each scene or sketch? And are the number of timers determined by whether you're using Bluetooth or wifi to connect? Thanks.
I love that this reacts to audio, but my only issue with that feature is isolating the audio to ONLY the music.

Is there a way to isolate the music audio to Govee?
Look at 3:31. It appears there might be a setting related to this.
Look at their $20 music "puck" I love it and it works great
Tell everyone at your party to shut the hell up
I’m planning on getting 2 of these to completely cover my window but I have a dilemma should I go to white blackout curtains or black?
Sorry couldn’t help it noticed a CRT TV! Love the light will be getting them!
Lol I bought it recently to hook up some of my old school consoles! For sure brings me back to my childhood! Thanks so much for watching!

I'd cover my entire roof and sides of my home in these. "Protection mapping" for cheap. For a fantastic holiday display
ไฟนร้สามารตใช้เเทนจอเเอลอีดีได้เป็นอย่างดี เเละสวยงามมาก
I wonder if you could use a big pegboard to help with securing the lights and keeping them all pointed one direction
That's a great idea! Might have to try it out at some point! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
How do these communicate with the phone? Local wifi or over the internet? Thinking about a use that’s outside of home wifi range.
Hi Chris, have you tried running the curtain lights from Govee with WLED controller?
Hi Chris, Love your work. If I wanted to cut the cable between the controller and the curtain lights and extend it longer than 3 meters, say to 6 or 7 meters, would I loose any brightness in the lights. Thanks
Can we write like happy birthday or anniversary etc?
Appreciate that coupon code Chris Maher saved $32.50 cent.
awesome! I go walking through the house and trip over something, only to yell out and all the lights come on! LMAO! this is great!!!
Hey, awesome video! I would love to see if you can use Wled with these lights!
I had a question... will they work with WLED or Signal RGB.... and recently Signal RGB started supporting Govee...
This would look amazing on a ceiling... I might have to try that
quick question, which products did you use to route the power cable down to the floor with the covers? 1m vs 2m ect.
Thank you!
Govee is the best. I just installed govee lights inside my car and they are great quality
Hey! Love your videos. I’ve noticed the music feature on the curtains are much better than the dream view music options. Do you know if it’s possible to program the music box outside of dreamview to use those effects or any other external mix? Thank you ❤️

Love it conceptually, but the lack of regulation from the twisting kills it for me.
May get a string to try pulling taut and mounting the bottom side with the string twisted the correct way.
Did you use your own adhesive to hang your lights?
So I can buy 2 set of these n connect them 2gether no problem?
Just ordered, thanks for the discount!
Me when a New Chris Maher video comes out:🤩
The builders already working on my house renovations: 🙃
These are really cool! Quick question I am wanting to put some LEDs on the bottom of my boat trailer to light up the road and the water.

I am pretty sure since they will be dunked in water often that they will need to be IP67 or IP68. Any sugesstions on lights and wiring?
I dig it, got that retro pixel look, but for $130 they out their GD minds 😅
another great product from Govee,
can you list all the music in the video shazam dosen't work on the last music
Where can I get this light in the UK?
Thanks Chris for this lovely video, as usual. Govee has replied to my email that the Curtain Lights will be available in the UK on July 24, so I look forward to this.
The main attraction for me is the CRT TV 😉👍
So excited to move & get these lights for my dedicated space 🤟💌

Awesome review! But where is the microphone located? Is it on the curtain, or only works through your phone mic?
I think about using it to split my room so I would hang it in the middle
Would you recommend using curtains?
If yes black or white?
Thx in advance
I wonder if these will pair with the Govee T2 lights on my tv… I could put three on the wall behind my tv for an even more immersive experience.
Great for holiday themed displays ❗
🥳🥳Congratulations on 100K Subscribers 🥳🥳
Hi how did you get these lights these are so cool I want to get one. 🎉🎉🎉
Are you gonna do a project with them, to adjust the direction of the light to make them seem more like the Divoom Pixoo 64, asking for a friend lol
Thanks so much for watching! I for sure want to try seeing what effect it would have (for better or worse) if i put them all in a separate diffuser channel. I hope to at some point give that a try!
@@ChrisMaherDIY oh boy i cant wait, have a great one.
Do u need to put these over ur curtain? Or are they by itself
You can put them up however you like but I did not use them in front of my windows. Just hung them on the wall. I also put them on my garage door outside which looked great! I did a video on that as well!
so, should we buy this or the twinkly curtain? and does the govee one sync with the tv lights?
Congrats on reaching 100k!
Great presentation! Ordering right now! 👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Ummmm is there a control receiver box before it plugs in for power? Can we wire this to a DMX encoder?!?! 😮😮😮😮 low cost low budget led wall for youth or cheap music video/concert?!
Great video and great music choices! What's the name of the last song you played in the vid?
i sent this idea a while ago on how to better do diy animations in the app. Its nice to finally see it implemented.
The app overall has gotten better with new products, but I'm afraid we'll never see updates for existing products. Govee's sku lineup is already beyond confusing and the majority of their app with double or triple feature sections duplicated is equally as cumbersome.
I would have liked to seen the implementation of video to LED wall which I think would have been game changing. These are pretty neato though and probably fit a lot of consumer's needs by just using the built in presets.
Govee tried releasing a desktop app, and i was hoping for some better DIY customization options available to keyboard and mouse that would actually be worth the time invested to create, but sadly it is just a glorified on off switch that only sometimes works. Maybe someday we'll get it, but guarantied to only be compatible with NEW govee products going forward from release.
I wonder how these react to the TV camera scenes. I think there could possibly be some really cool implementation with those especially if these were diffused behind curtains or sheets.
Agreed. The desktop app is a joke. I have been wanting to build some sort of video wall similar to Bitluni and am hoping that eventually this will allow us to do that.
Update from govee. There is a GIF upload feature coming for the curtain lights. This is good news!
Hi, I was just wondering, how are you getting such great sound syncing in audio mode? I have the M1 lights but the control box is furthest from my tv as it needs to be in the corner of the room the T2 tv backlight and now the curtain lights but i find the music will only really recognise footsteps or other loud noises. I would have to play the music very loudly in order for it to be picked up and... well i live in an apartment and can't make too much noise. Is there something i can get to improve sound syncing with my TV?
Wonderful - NOT able to buy in Australia
Great video. You really missed an opportunity to beat box there during the vocal test though 🤣
I wonder what this would look like with a frosted piece of acrylic
Can I connect 3 without having wifi just Bluetooth on my mobile?
Hi, what was the song that you first played in this video? cheers
at the 4 minute mark
Do you know if they allow API control. And if you can control what displays on them over the API.
These things are already being sold at Sam’s Club, it’s gonnabe really popular.
I would want it for a quick and easy holiday display outside my home.
Bro you are genius 😍
Are these capable of dreamview sync?
Do you think it would be safe to use these as a curtain for a door? like to walk through? it would be cool to come up with a minecraft nether portal animation
No
Can we talk about how he's got these cool ass lights setup and how modern technology they are....right next to a CRT TV/DVD combo
I love it it looks amazing I love your channel keep it up🎉
Anyone know the song at 6:33? Shazam had no idea when I tried to use that app.
Can you create your own animations? If that is possible I will be buying three immediately!
Sad that these companies don't provide a local network api which you can sent text from your domotica, pictures, gifs, etc from. Since adafruit came with the individual addressed leds I have been waiting for a good commercial product. This comes close, but like my Govee tiles on the wall, the app's scenes or the static ones you can create become dull pretty soon. It needs some actual functionality or linkage.
dope af! can 2 or more be linked together?
Thanks so much for watching! What's awesome about these is that they will allow you to connect up to 3 of these together but you are not physically connecting them. This will all be done by the software in the app. So this means you could place these anywhere in your room and they would still act as a single unit even though they are not physically connected. It just opens up so many more options for how you can use these! And if you connect 3 of these together, its going to cover a huge space! Close to 5 meters across and 2 meters down.
Yet again govee has brought out a cracking product. Thanks for the video.
