According to colorpsychology.com “When it comes to communication, color is unbeatable. Unconscious or otherwise, color can evoke emotions, inspire reactions, and change modes of thinking. It can excite or soothe your mood, raise or lower your blood pressure, and even whet your appetite!” Nothing can change color faster than lighting. Today’s LEDs make that super easy.
Even before my career started as a lighting designer for Honda/Acura, I was building custom LED circuits & lights from basic components from Radio Shack. Fast forward and I’m in love with this era of LED lighting revolution. Designers have gotten so creative in their use. From headlights to TVs to night-lights, they’re everywhere.
Personally, I prefer LED products that contribute to a more amazing ambiance. I have them in my boat, my truck, and in my home. My favorite are Smart RGBIC. Smart allows me to control via an app or my smart home. RGB means red/blue/green and these can typically create millions of colors. IC is integrated circuit. IC products can vary individual LED colors instead on the whole strip being one color.
Here is the hierarchy of LED strips from super basic to top dawg. Prices increase accordingly.
Basic White (warm or cool)
Single Color
Multi-Color (RGB)
Controlled Series Colors (RGBIC)

Plug-in Only
Remote Control

I’m still a value-minded guy, so Govee Lighting is my go-to source for Smart RGBIC LEDs. They make a huge variety of reasonably priced products for many applications. They create such an amazing ambiance whether you want to show off, relax, look dignified or be fun! Take a step, control your mood and find a product that projects the color you’re feeling or wanting.
Govee isn't the only game in town. I've found that Monster Smart Illuminescence makes some pretty cool products too. They're a bit cheaper in quality but they have products that others don't.
