The light strip comes with an updated design that allows it to be split in up to four pieces that are 1.64 feet each. That's an upgrade over the previous version that just split into three pieces. Because of this it can be adjusted to fit any size TV between 40 and 60 inches using the different pieces and the connecting wires. You don't need to cut or bend the strip to make it fit anymore. Larger screens (50 to 60 inches) will only get three sides covered.

The lights have the full spectrum of 16 million colors, and they are dimmable with a brightness adjustment between 1% and 100%. All you do is plug the strip into your TV's USB port to power it, then stretch it where you want it to go. It comes with a controller box that uses simple button controls, but you can also just control it from the free app. The app lets you dim the lights, switch the colors, or control the color changing speed.

You can also choose between seven scenes corresponding to different events. Depending on what you're watching, you can choose between Dating, Romantic, Blinking, and more. The lights are also safe to touch, produce very little heat, and use a strong 3M adhesive to stay connected to your TV. You can even reinforce the strip with the five included clips.

With the lights set up behind your TV, they will also work as bias lighting. Bias lighting helps reduce eye fatigue and create whole-room ambiance.
