20-02-2009 1:09am#1Hi all
Something to brighten your day.....
It's not often I get excited about this sort of thing, but this is REALLY very cool (and sexy, retro, stylish, funky etc etc)
It's not a new Full HD TV
It's not the latest Blu-Ray player
It's not even a new A/V Amp
It's a LED Ambience LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!
Now dont go away just yet thinking B-o-r-i-n-g! it's just a light - think of it as Ambilight for pretty much anyroom in your house and you'll get the idea.
They are perfect when watching films in a darkened room (as we all should be doing anyway), they're a great help for setting the mood at parties or when you want a warm glow when reading or relaxing to music after a hard days slog at work...
A little lighting suggestion if used in the bedroom -- set to RED
They come in two basic types: Original and Mini
The Original is about the size of a football and is available with either a clear or smoked black transparent main body.
It looks like something you'd expect to see in the "Jetsons" living room, for those who can remember that cartoon or maybe a mad scientists lab...
A nice touch with this one is the contols are on a RF remote control (which can link several LivingColours together to operate as one) so the light can be tucked out of sight should you choose. It will also let you adjust the brightness and colour saturation of the colour of light you choose to cast
The Mini is a good bit smaller - yep, the name gives that away eh? and is available with body colours of White, Silver and Black. This one is not remote controlled, you select the colour you wish to project from a touch sensitive dial on the light itself. It's not a bright as the Original (but still very effective - mine is perched on top of the hifi in a corner of the room and is always in use - I know when I'm onto a winner when my wife uses it constantly PLUS didn't moan when I brought yet another thing with a plug on it home from work....)
Both can be set to loop through their entire colour palette constantly if you wish. If you click on this link below you'll get more of and idea

Yeah they are kinda neat!
Certainly not a gimmic, domestic lighting is usually isn't classed as fun but these can certainly affect the tone or vibe of a room.
May be a bit nerdy but was watching Matrix the other night and that film is tinted with a green colour cast thought I'd set the LivingColour to a shade of green and hey worked quite well
Naturally with with the Ireland V England match the Saturday they should all be set to GREEN
See, they can even be patriotic!
