You did a great job of explaining and straightforward without over elaborating and you have great video and audio quality. Keep it up!

[pictureus]

Seriously this is amazing; I might even do this for my small office. Love your content.

[MikeWat]

Thanks for the shoutout and great job on your build Dan!!

At least you’re honest in the half-assness. If you want to add a diffuser cut a groove in the angle you cut to recess the LED.
Also ppl, your walls & floors may not be flat, it will show in the end result. Take the time to do the project right & use proper techniques to do a good job. i.e removing any old baseboards, scribing the bottom of the new baseboards, & adding shims behind the baseboards. Good video in theory. Practice makes perfect.

Govee is truly the best! the 60/m is the best in the biz! I have it on my desk, and because of the diode density, I can even run cables over the strip, and you don't see a shadow on the wall behind.

[absbi]

This is very thoughtful, better than running the lights between the space.

A better option is to use 2 wood sizes. one less wide than the other. when you glue them together you will have a hidden lip to put your LED light in. Imagine one wood half inch thick by 8 inch wide and the half inch thick and 7 inch wide. Join them together and you will have you lip to hied the LED light and you angle the light as you

Thanks man for making the video and keep up the great content!

Fun fact: 60leds/m is not a lot. It’s standard for any medium grade led light. You can find 120leds/m fairly easily and for cheaper than $90/5m. What you’re paying for with Govee is power supply and built in controls. You do pay more for plug and play tech but for a lot of people it’s worth it.

Love this! Can’t wait to do this to my apartment!

[kevinvitale]

Awesome video… to the point, excellent explanations and some great ideas.

[varasano]

Instead of having to cut the wood on an angle, I suggest using a taller and a shorter piece of wood stuck together. Then the LED can sit on top of the shorter piece and face directly up. So imagine these two letters are wood and the dot on the i is the LED: li

This way you don't really need to get the angle right and can probably find pre-made pieces. Plus the light shines directly up which will probably extend up the wall better

[freedonx]

holy damn..what an awesome and yet original video! Your room/office/space looks VERY profesional

[marswabisabi]

I learned that using a primer before painting finally gave a more artificial cheaper look. Not using primer will absorb the paint unevenly across the wood giving it a more natural look, showing the grain of the wood being much more beautiful.

[garyarcher]

Looks GREAT! Very clean and I like the high trim painted black.

[asherray]

What is the lamp in the corner you’re using??

[Zebrajellyfishphoto]

Great video! I'm looking to shine color from my ceiling onto a wall painted flat black. I don't want to see the LED diodes so I'm wondering if there are LEDs that point or are cut at an angle. In other words, if I'm looking at that wall I just want to see the effect of the light, not the LED diodes. I'm wondering if i need to install a small piece of wood across the ceiling to physically hide the LED strip. Thoughts?

[assai]

Seen on another vid. Put a 90 degree angle strip behind the board to let the led shine right up to the ceeling while hiding it much better

So I just did our bedroom wall in these (16ft)panels and they stink! It’s been a week since they’ve been up. How long did it take for the smell to go away?
