I bought these monster multi color USB LED light strips with a remote because a friend and recommended how great they were so I bought them and installed them behind my television and went in as dark outside and I'm watching television I hit the little button on the remote and the lights come on and they look so amazing even if I'm not watching TV and the televisions off I turn them on and they have a nice glow behind them so I can have a big glow behind my television to give a nice ambience to the room one of the great things is with the remote you can change the colors of these lights and give the room a different look with each color so if you'd like to give your room a little mood enhancement these lights make a big difference.
