Elite Screens LED Backlight Kit for EDGE FREE Screens - Multicolor

In this review the Elite Screens Projector Projection Screen LED KIT Strip Lights are judged as a focused enhancement for fixed frame home theater setups. The kit is designed specifically for Elite Screens EDGE FREE fixed frame screens and its single biggest selling point is the self adhesive black LED strip that creates a bright, multicolor halo without visible wiring. For anyone who wants to add ambient backlighting to a 2.35:1, 158-in diagonal projection surface, this LED kit offers easy installation, remote control color selection and a compact power supply that keeps the installation tidy.

Key Features

• Self adhesive strip: The included black strip adheres to the back of EDGE FREE fixed frame screens to produce a concealed, even halo effect.
• Multicolor options: Sixteen solid color choices and four flash modes provide a wide palette to match room mood or content.
• Remote control: An included remote and batteries let users switch colors and modes from seating positions without reaching the screen.
• Power and wiring: The kit includes a power supply and cord so the LED strip is ready to plug in after installation.
• Dimmable output: The lights can be dimmed to reduce distraction and tailor the ambient glow to projection brightness.
• Support and warranty: Elite Screens backs the kit with a one year manufacturer warranty and lifetime tech support for setup questions.

Who It's For

The primary audience is home theater owners who already own or plan to buy an Elite Screens EDGE FREE fixed frame screen and want a simple way to add ambient backlighting that improves perceived contrast and viewing comfort. AV enthusiasts who value neat cable management and a concealed mounting solution will appreciate the black adhesive strip and included controller.

Those who should look elsewhere include people using other brands or types of screens, since the kit is compatible only with EDGE FREE fixed frames.
