FINAL THOUGHT - I think if you already had the first version of Govee's backlight there isn't enough difference to upgrade and spend the money. However, if you are trying to decide between the 2 i would recommend going with this new T2, or if you have a TV larger than 65" and have the old model upgrading to the 75""-85" T2 model would be a good idea.
I hope you all enjoy!! Feel free to ask any questions!!

@Mulletforhire 8 месяцев назад

I found it didn't work for the t2, I did that with the t1 no problem. With the t2 it wouldn't calibrate properly, as soon as I used the orange pads it was night and day difference. Not sure if it's just my new tv or what

@threadchemistry 11 месяцев назад

@Mulletforhire 8 месяцев назад

I recently upgraded as I got a larger tv, the T2 is much better. I had the t1 dialed in as good as you could, had it for a couple years and used it daily. Its taken me a bit to get used to the t2. I found I had to use the orange pads instead of the RU-vid video I used with the T1, it just wouldn't calibrate properly, once the orange pads were on it literally self calibrated perfectly, the t1 you had to completely adjust them manually. The white balance was harder to get right, after that I find the color to be way more accurate then the t1. Much better orange and yellow, skin tones are light pink. It still really struggles with green though. There's also double the amount of leds so you get a way better seperation in colors, especially around the corners. I do find it very sensitive, if the screen is transitioning quickly alot it reacts very fast and almost flickers as its keeping up with the screen. Id recommend the T2 over the T1. I got it on sale and with a coupon i paid $150 CDN for the 75". The T1 75" version was $130 so it was a no brainer. The T3 is in development, has same amount of LEDs as the T1 but 4 colors per led resulting in supposed very accurate colors like the screen itself.

Is it possible that the black clips with 3m you didn’t use you can use for wire management? Instead of tape? Looks good. I’m considering purchasing

@threadchemistry 5 месяцев назад

That wouldn't work bc the 3m is on the wrong side. You clip the strip in the front and the 3m on back so there's no real good way to be able to hold the wiring down if the 3M is on the opposite side. If that makes sense.. Great question though.

Many users are wanting to know if you can put a backlight for 55-65 inch tvs on a 50 inch tv.What are your thoughts?I personally think you could np with a little bit of innovation and placement especially at the corners where you looped the cord

@threadchemistry 5 месяцев назад

Yeah you certainly could. Exactly like you said with the corners just make sure you tape them down otherwise you'll get a shadow on the wall since there's a little extra slack on each corner now. Definitely doable.

@darrenhoey4995 6 месяцев назад

Do you think it would be worth getting one of these if you have a tv on a stand corner unit ?

@threadchemistry 6 месяцев назад

@sabri4373 9 месяцев назад

Can you use this without the camera to make it only emit 1 colour light?

You could but if you're not going to use the camera don't spend the money on this. Just get a basic LED light for a quarter of the price.

@martinthomas5282 21 день назад

the camera goes in the center of the TV. Does it need to be attached to the 3m tape, or is it just sits there?

@threadchemistry 21 день назад

It just sits there kinda. It has a folding back to kind of move the center of gravity back and rubber for grip. Hips very well actually

@kristianrossi6481 9 месяцев назад

If the TV is installed on a semi-opaque piece of furniture, could any reflections bother the camera in capturing the colors of the screen well?

@threadchemistry 9 месяцев назад

Nope you will be good. When you set it up you have to select a coverage area for the camera. Basically a box aiming only on your TV. Even if the camera can see areas outside the TV it wont process anything outside of the box you build which should be around the edges of the TV. Make sense?

@kristianrossi6481 9 месяцев назад

@@threadchemistry@threadchemistry Do you mean that if the camera is set well and only frames the areas of the television, the rest doesn't bother it, not even a few slight reflections?

@threadchemistry 9 месяцев назад

If the camera is set well and you set the points for the camera we'll then you will be fine. Basically the camera doesn't see anything but what's on tour TV.

Hello. I just got a Govee TV Backlight T2 from a friend. I was unboxing the package and realized there is no stick on orange blocks in it. What should I do? Are the blocks necessary for the set-up?

@threadchemistry 2 месяца назад

They are just reference points to be able to spot those corners easier when going through setup. So technically you don't actually need them. If you could find something that you could put on each area of your TV where the orange foam pieces are supposed to go, you would be good to go. Probably something a little brighter so you can see it. Something that isn't going to stick to the TV and ruin it when you need to remove it. Maybe even some of those neon post it notes. The mini ones would probably work perfect. I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.. ))

@ASTROSR4 5 месяцев назад

Is that an actual outlet? Or is it a In wall power kit? Im asking because Ive been told that you cannot plug an extension into those kits and the should be plugged directly into a wall outlet not a Power Kit. I returned my Govee T2 because the AC adapter was to large and I couldnt plug the TV and it in at the same time....

@threadchemistry 5 месяцев назад

All you have to do is go to Home Depot or lowes and they sell those as whole kits to install. They're pretty convenient actually if u are familiar with dunning wire.

@threadchemistry 5 месяцев назад

So it is an outlet. Just a "dented" mold, for lack of better words. You cut out a hole and instal the mold and run the wiring and it'll be flush with your wall so you can push tv back

So you still think the difference is not much from the T1?

@threadchemistry 10 месяцев назад

I think if you have the correct size for your tv with the T1 right now, I wouldn't spend the $ to upgrade. If you don't have either though I'd say get the T2, or if u have the 55"-65" T1 on a 75" or 85" tv I would say upgrade if you like a lot of brightness. The T2 really illuminates out more.

@Aleejandro_Gomez 7 месяцев назад

You think these would work on a projector screen?

@threadchemistry 7 месяцев назад

Technically you could make it work, but the LED strip for the back of the TV is a certain length. The largest being for 75"-85" TVs. So if you were to apply that LED to the back of the screen you could only place it in a square as big as the strip is. So the bigger the screen the smaller area the LED strip will cover which would block some of the color that reflects out.. So yes it could work. Would I do it? Prolly not.

@threadchemistry 7 месяцев назад

And actually aren't those screens very thin? Would the LED shine right through?

@Aleejandro_Gomez 7 месяцев назад

@@threadchemistry I guess I didn’t think about the bleed through! I only have to do 3 side of the screen but I was just curious! Thanks for input! I guess I could by them and 👀 if I can make it work or return them!

@threadchemistry 7 месяцев назад

You most certainly could. But you wouldn't be able to use the full length for 3 sides since they're separated by wire for the corners of the TV. Like where you have to bend it. Plus how the camera reads. But if you give it a shot plz let me know. I don't recommend but I'm still super curious if you could rig something or trick the settings somehow. Hah
