Holy Cow Chris, I can't believe how quickly you've gone from you making them walk panels and light shapes for your wall out of wood and LED strips (I forget the actual name) to today with a house front like this and that computer desk!, not to mention all the subs, It really couldn't of happened to a nicer bloke, you are flying mate, long may it continue. Best wishes to you and your family Chris 🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@timothyhiggins2735]

Your whole Govee series really helped me to do a great installation. Thank you for taking the time to figure all this out and sharing it with us.

[@kimbye1]

So awesome. We just got our first batch of Govee indoor and outdoor lights and as a long time Hue user, Govee is all I initially hoped Hue would be. We mounted several lights outside, grouped them and synced it to music, how easy and fun it was, Haloween can't come soon enough 😊

[@stephenmcallister2169]

i like the fact that you didn’t go overkill on the lights. just enough to make it look amazing without over exposing to much light.

[@TechGrowls]

The last couple of minutes breath taking. I knew the end would be remarkable but yet still I can't stop replaying the great white reveal 🏆✔

[@BigB1974]

I just installed 3 sets on my garage door tonight. I didn’t have track to place the lights in. I hot glued a magnet to the back of each support.Hopefully holds up to the cold temps. -5 Celsius 28 Fahrenheit. I wish there were more options , timer or scenes when the curtains are spliced together. Thanks for the vid. It is a great idea. And works well.

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

That's a great idea! Love it! Yeah I hope they continue to build out the splicing functionality to include more options and integration! Thanks for taking the time to comment!

[@DoryHayes]

I have the curtain lights on my garage as well but living in Kansas where 40mph winds are the norm it's hard to keep them untangled. I really wish Govee would improve the linked mode for the curtain lights as they really pushed that feature as a selling point. Issue is they didn't make linked mode to act as a single unit where you could upload a gif and it play without issue, your stuck using their prebuilt scenes.

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks so much for watching! Yeah I hope they continue to add things and capabilities to the curtain lights because there really is so much you can do with these!

[@cooldealmedia2865]

Build a frame and attach the lights directly to it.

[@CanadaSocial]

I was thinking the exact same thing and that is why I decided to wait on these as our Canadian winds will just keep blowing them around unless I use a lot of sticky tape. I did buy all the other products. Prime day had some great sales on these lights.

[@JoshuaKnab]

You could get magnet loops for the bottom of the strands. That's what I'm going to try with ours because of wind as well

[@amacaddict]

I was mad about the utter lack of linked curtain options too.

[@KimmoJaskari]

These do come in black, unlike the previous gen. Probably easier to make them "disappear" on many houses than white. The splicing kit is fine and all but I'd probably still use some Posilocks and shrinkwrap. Almost toolless, and much less gigantic blobs than this, but for people not comfy with working with wires I can see the splicing kit being nice.

[@jasco927]

Congratulations on Govee featuring your video on their FB page.

[@ChrisMuncy]

Looking great Chris! I live in an apartment so I can't get as elaborate as you, but I do have 2 sets of curtains on my balcony that look great and one set of curtains inside that I constantly play with. One thing I would love to see is more in depth on creating your own animations for the curtains, specially with 2 or more joined. Thinking out loud here, getting them to interface with WLED instead of Govee's controller might be an interesting experiment. Keep the videos coming Chris, always look forward to seeing what you have coming up next.

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Yeah that would be for sure something they could create more options for when 2 or 3 are synced together. I do at some point want to create a WLED version of the curtain lights. Something that's in my long list of projects I want to try lol. Thanks again!

How dod you hook up the Christmas string lights? Were they daisy chainable? Or did you have to plug in each individual one?

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks for watching! Each one is plugged in. They are not daisy chain able. Although you can get the new ones in a lot longer lengths!

[@Philip123MAD]

Awesome job great inspiration for my next project.

[@chi.marvine]

Just purchased 3 of the curtains using your affiliate link. Thanks for your alternative solution on mounting this on the garage!

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks so much for watching and for the support!! Appreciate it! Hope you have a great day!

[@austine1425]

If you have any extra diffuser channels maybe you could find a way to attach them to each of the bottom lights on the curtain lights to provide some weight on the strings. It could help weigh them down or you could even stick them to door like the top row so the strings stay straight and prevent any tangling if there is any wind. It also could help the lights stay facing forward. Just a thought. Keep up the great work!

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

That's a really good idea!! Someone mentioned that where they live is windy and they get tangled all the time so that would solve that problem! Probably would just have to use something different than 3m tape with the extra weight but that would be easy to find something else! Thanks for watching!

[@Toliman.]

@@ChrisMaherDIY given that the garage door bends, you may need to have 2 or 3 horizontal mid-rails that have some slack, or a series of spacers, guides/loops that can hold the vertical lengths/strings where the grid should be. It might be better to have a series of horizontal guides for each garage door panel, so that if someone grabs the string to cause trouble, eg cats, dogs, small children, the grid alignment has some slack, but also won't pull the rest of the string down. I guess it depends how hard it is to repair a single string, or have to salvage after someone walks past with scissors at 2am for halloween.

[@Mgiusto]

I have an idea for this. You make a long piece of thin wood that you paint white and you hot glue the bottom of the curtain lights to this, then you adhere some stretch material on the back side of this wood plank and connect that stretch material to the underside of the bottom of the garage door so it comes on the inside of the garage and you affix to the inside of the garage panels, you make it lightly taught with the garage closed and when you open the garage the stretch material allows it to stretch as needed without affecting the lights, because it's the stretch material that is expanding and not the lights. If hot glue won't hold the lights you could staple each row of lights to the wood plank and paint over the staples with white paint as well. I've seen this concept of stretch material with banners you can put on your garage and figure that would work perfect with the govee curtain lights.

[@PatrickSalonga]

Was thinking of the same idea.

[@banksciber]

Looks amazing! If you don't mind telling me what scenes are the ones being displayed at the beginning of the video.

[@bradcas86]

Looks great! Quick question. When installing the christmas string lights on the pillars, did you put the power source on the bottom or top? Or does it matter when doing a show?

[@kmcgee9509]

Thank you so much! I was trying to figure out a solution for the curtain lights 🎉 And was thinking about adding lights to my column. I'm off to the store now! 😊

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@kennygramajo7235]

Which curtain light do you have? There's different ones on Amazon. Some cost more than others but are all from Govee.

[@angryengineer5893]

Any advice on how to shorten the 66ft RGBIC lights you installed on the posts? I only need about 50ft.

[@brendancory8636]

So I’ve been looking into these lights for years. Im all about the light show for the holidays and that’s my main plan of why i want to buy them. That being said, can i still do the shows and customize my own on the regular cheaper version or do I have to purchase the pro? I heard tk touch base a little on that when you compared the amount of lights there is with both versions. But the curious if the app features and custom adjustments are the same with both?

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks for watching! Save yourself the money and get last year's model if your main goal is for the lighting aspect. Both kits will perform the same in this area! The main benefit of the pro kit is the dedicated white lights and matter support. If these are not big deals then last year's model is a great option.

[@massiveian]

Do you have any pictures of where you plugged all 4 christmas lights into? Im thinking of adding an outdoor power strip on the inside of my porch and plugging them all in there. Also what did you use to weigh the curtain lights down?

[@LinMa333]

Love the light curtain over the garage door while still keeping the garage functional! Wondering how the light strings look when it's windy? Do they get all tangled from not being attached at the bottom?

[@MrLmb4682]

Looks amazing ! I just put the pro lights up can I sync with their bulbs too ?

[@79camaro3]

Is that a light curtain on the garage door? Also did you have to use 2 or is there one big enough for a 2 car garage?

[@rcb3000]

I keep telling people Govee is the absolute best!

[@nyacoustics8373]

ThankU so much for this idea of hanging on your garage door. I've been searching for ideas for hanging outside and your idea is brill.

[@BAGoWorms28]

I have the 200 ft pro and 100ft running opposite directions. Any ideas how to get them to match up perfect. I guess since they are opposite the themes are all out of wack. The 200 is the left front of house and top. The 100 is the right side bottom roof line

[@JasenM-ju5kv]

Chris quick question for you. The 12' jump you did, does Govee include axtra wire for the jumps or did you have to make your own extension using their splicing adapters? Thanks!

[@iamjoachim2542]

how do you connect multiple curtain lights to have a single effect? do you connect the wires or there’s a connector for each?

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

They each have their own power source and are not connected together. Govee allows you to connect them together via software. Here is a video I go over a little more in depth about using the Govee app to get things set up. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5DLknyXrr1kncU

[@ypark2877]

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks for watching! That's a good idea. Maybe I can do a follow up where I include the screen record so anyone can see the exact selection.

[@Chyld989]

I'd definitely be interested in seeing this as well, along with a more detailed video about the curtain in general. My fiancée would love having our garage door set up like that, but I don't know how much of a pain it would be to set up in a way that wind wouldn't tangle it constantly, but that still allows the door to open and close.

Used to be the head tech for jellyfish lighting. I would buy these over any of the big permanent companies

[@k9sgarage301]

Which lights did you use for the posts on the front porch?

[@Iamsorryformytoxicness]

Hey, quick question do they light up far being placed as high as two story houses roof?

[@RahatSaini-e5o]

Are curtain lights connectable?

[@guyfisher2050]

Excellent Video. I highly recommend using instead Scotch Extreme Fasteners instead of the command strips that are more for indoor usage(available Staples and Home Depot), they're super strong and their adhesive is much more reliable), they come in either squares or on a strip to cut to size.

[@johngartin3118]

how many curtain lights did you use for the garage door?

[@fero18189]

Did you think of using a FM transmitter, I am concerned if by using FM transmitter and then playing the music via a speaker for the show music box will reduce the sensitivity to the music

[@LynnLopez-i4l]

Great video, question, how did you get those effects to sync to the music that way? I have seen schemes in govee, but not sure if i missed it, but i have found the same ones, can you provide more info in the syncing?

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks for watching! Here is a video I did that goes into more details! Hope it helps! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5DLknyXrr1kncU

[@chvydrptop]

@ 4:06 when you cut the cables open, did you notice any difference in the guage of the wire? I ask because the Pro's jacket says 20 AWG and 22 AWG. I am assuming the signal wire is the smaller 22 awg. I am hoping to just solder and splice a set of lights rather then using the barrel connectors as they stick out for my install like a soar thumb,.

[@paulmaestas8709]

Is the bottom of the curtain lights attached somehow? Just wondering about wind, getting tangled up and even shifting to the sides while opening and closing the door and getting caught up 😬. Thank you!

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Thanks for watching and great question! No, they are not attached to anything. So far the garage has probably been opened and closed 100 times and its never got caught. If its super windy, I do check just to make sure the strands didn't blow and get caught on my outlet to the left of the garage before opening.

[@BillKaik]

Did you only use the sticky back for mounting?

[@ChrisMaherDIY]

Yeah that's all I used. I had their previous model mounted for about 5 months and none of them had fallen off. Just make sure to clean the surface before sticking and you should be good!

[@erale155]

The track you used for the curtains, muzata ones, does the track need to be as deep as it is, meaning the deep one? Or can we get the more shallower one instead no one that's like half the price?

[@HAMRADIO-SOTA-POTA-BOTA]

Did you need to get the Light Show Box in order for your display to be so dynamic with the music? The reason I ask is because I have the non pro and when I just use my phone mic to pick up the music, all the RGBIC lights change in unison. It's kind of boring. TIA

[@jaquanboyd2039]

For the garage how do you keep the cables above when you open and close the garage? When it opens doesn’t it require more cable as the top of the garage door rises, then when closing the cables tension would release of course causing much more slack. I’m trying to figure out that out now cause when the garage door up it’s fine but once it’s down all the excess wire gets in the way and I have to halfway open the door to pull them back up and straighten them out. Just seeing if you had any ideas

Hey Chris! LOVE the lights! I just bought 3 of the curtain light sets to use on my garage door. Currently, it's fairly windy here. Any issues with the curtain lights in moderate wind? Any recommendation on how to attach the ends of the strands onto the door to keep them in place? I'm reading that others have their lights getting tangled and constantly need fixing.

Thanks so much for watching! A lot of times it's windy during the day here but usually does down at night. It takes me maybe 3 minutes to get them untangled so I don't mind. However If you didn't want to untangle them I think these would work well. amzn.to/3FZEoOQ I would install them maybe 12 inches from the bottom of each strand to keep them from crossing. That would be the first thing I would try!

If I need to buy more wire to add as a gap filler from one soffit to the next what gage do I need to get and is it an issue if I use any length of wire I want to fill the gap? Shouldn't be more than an 8' gap I need to add. I have a trilevel Home so I need to do some jumps from one soffit down to another a couple times.

Could we tape them down to the garage because wouldn’t wind just blow them around and mess the image up
