Hi all,
I am in need of some help with a project I am working on. I have recently equipped my listening room at home with a Philips Hue Bridge, controlling 12 Lightbars which are responsible for setting the mood and general light in the room.
In this room, I have three audio racks, each has four shelves. They are separate and are about 5 inches apart. The width of each shelf is 19 inches.
I am trying to come up with a solution to attach a small light source under each shelf, to illuminate the equipment. I was hoping that Philips would have a product but they don't. Their light strips are very long. I need 9 lights (to accommodate 12 shelves, as the top three shelves don't have anything above them). I was looking for 9 short strips (6-12 inches each) which will connect to the same controller and could change color/intensity and be turned on and off as a group. Ideally, I wanted it to work with the rest of the Hue setup, so that when the lights in the room are turned on, so do those lights.
If not possible, I am OK with controlling those 9 lights separately, preferably with a small remote (as opposed to the phone). I was looking for a long time but could not find any short light strips that can be somehow controlled as a group. It does not need to be strips, it could be small, round fixtures (like the ones that IKEA sells) but again, they need to be controlled together.
I would appreciate any advice or product referrals you may have.
Thank you very much in advance,
Roy.
