Leveling up the Gaming Room with LED Lighting

— Contributed by Matt Brown

Because of the pandemic and the stay-at-home measures, I had a lot of time to play video games and redecorate our gaming room. The plan was to add some LED lighting and a scrolling LED sign for a futuristic feel. Good thing Affordable LED was open for business during the quarantine. 

I only needed a small indoor-type one, so I purchased the 2×14 single line sign, the smallest one on the website. It was on sale too, lucky me!

S-SERIES RED SINGLE LINE INDOOR PROGRAMMABLE LED SIGN from Affordable LED

The S-Series indoor sign was the perfect size, and I installed it on the wall across the monitor. It only comes with red light-emitting diodes, but it isn’t a problem. Its purpose is to show what game I’m currently playing while I’m vlogging or live streaming.

Here are the features of the S-Series indoor programmable LED sign:

  • 16 different messages sequence
  • Adjustable viewing angle (360 degrees)
  • Comes with a remote control
  • Comes with a 90-day warranty
  • Comes with UL-approved universal 100-240 VAC adapter

I also bought white LED ribbon strips, which I used for perimeter lighting for the room. I also put some below the shelves and the TV. It’s definitely my best purchase from the shop as it was not very expensive.

COOL WHITE LED RIBBON STRIP from Affordable LED

Here are the LED ribbon strips’ features:

  • Low voltage, only 12 volts
  • Super bright LEDs
  • Easy and flexible installation
  • The PCB strip is waterproof
  • Perfect size for concealed lighting

These LED ribbon strips are also available in other colors — amber, blue, green, red, and RGB.

I plan to buy more of those LED strips because I love how the gaming room turned out. I just might redecorate the whole house with LED lighting!

I recommend Affordable LED for LED sign and lighting needs because they are open during quarantine and ship relatively fast.

The shopping process was also hassle-free; with just a few clicks, you get your orders reserved and ready for shipping. The products I ordered were securely packed as well, so none of them arrived with damages.
