Q: QuestionI have a 70 inch tv so which length would u recommend the 65 or 75. Also if I wanted to watch normal tv or Netflix will the lights still sync to whatever I’m watching?

Asked 4 years ago by Nick.

• A:Answer Hello Nick, These lights don't go all around the TV. I have a 65" TV which I bought the lights for is and I still have around 4 inches on each side to the bottom. My suggestion is to buy the 75" and this way you will have more lighting coverage. Remember, you will need to buy the Hue Sync Box to have full functionality.

Q: Questioncan you reuse these on different surfaces or do the clips only stick to one surface?

Asked 5 years ago by questionpls.

• A:Answer You wouldn't be able to take the clips/guides off and immediately reattach them to something else, you would need to replace the double sided tape which is pretty simple overall if you ever had to move them.

Q: QuestionI have a 77" TV. Someone recommended I get the 65" light strip. Is this accurate? I don't think the 75" will overhang. Thoughts?

Asked 3 years ago by popcorn.

• A:Answer No that's not accurate. The 75" is made for TV's 75 inches and larger so 75" should be perfect for your 77" TV.

Q: QuestionAnyone know how long the power cable is? I need it to go behind the walls so it has to go over and under which requires some extra length

Asked 4 years ago by Badger.

• A:Answer The total length of the power cable and power box is approximately 59”. However, if you need to extend it, you can purchase a compatible 6’ extension on Amazon. It is the UpBright 3Pc x 6ft Extension Cord Cable Compatible with Philips Hue Play Light Bar Smart Light Bulb Accessory. ($15 for a bundle of 3-they also can be purchased individually) Hue makes extension cables for $15-20, but are usually 16’ long if necessary. This cable can be purchased here at Best Buy. Hope this helps!

Q: QuestionCan I use the phillips hue gradiant 55" on an 65" TV? Any advice is appreciated

Asked 4 years ago by Sean.

• A:Answer i have the 65" gradient strip on my 65" inch TV and it fits really well. i'm thinking if you put the 55" strip on your 65" inch TV it might be a bit short and you may not be please with it since the colors don't go all the way down the sides. the other option would be if using the 55" inch, don't go out to the edge of the TV but rather in more of the back of the TV and it will get more of the sides. just a thought.

Q: QuestionI would like use this but i am currently using a samsung tv that is internet compatible and i have just downloaded the apps i use, Hulu, Netflix, and so on. I didnt know if since it is not going through an apple tv or fire tv if it is still compatible

Asked 4 years ago by RobertH.

• A:Answer This is will not work with the apps on the TV. It has to be through an HDMI input and you have to purchase the Hue Play Sync box to use these lights. Once you connect your Play box, and Hue lights you have and this gradient light strip can be added to the entertainment section in the Hue App. You will have to use the Hue Sync app also for setting up the system. It's not complicated and pretty straight forward. What you will end up with is a extremely great add on to your TV experience. Hope this helps and you decide to give it go, you won't be sorry for the investment.

Q: QuestionMy TV is mounted- cables are routed through wall behind the TV to a separate location in the room. Is there a way to extend the power cable? I see that it is only 1.5m. Secondly, I assume that the HDMI sync box connects to the LED lights via HDMI cable?

Asked 5 years ago by juicebox870.

• A:Answer When it comes to extending the power cable, that is not an option currently. And when it comes to connecting, the lights do not connect to the sync box physically. The lights are connected to the sync box through the bridge wirelessly.
