A projector that throws a slow-moving water-ripple pattern across a ceiling and walls in 18 color options, controlled by remote. Unlike a star projector, the effect here moves continuously, which is what makes it read like light on water rather than a fixed pattern. It runs on USB power and has a built-in timer so it shuts off on its own after you are asleep rather than running all night. Brightness and the speed of the ripple are adjustable, and it can run a single color or cycle. It is a mood light, not a room light, so it needs a dark room to look like anything. Best fit: kids and teen bedrooms, nurseries, and anyone who wants something moving on the ceiling at bedtime.

Frequently asked questions
Does it work with the lights on?
Not really. It is a mood projector, so the ripple washes out under any room light. A dark room is required for the effect to read.
Does it turn itself off?
Yes, there is a built-in timer so it shuts down on its own rather than running all night.
How is it powered?
USB. It runs off a standard wall brick or a bedside power strip, so it can sit anywhere with a USB port nearby.
Can I run one color instead of a cycle?
Yes. The remote lets you lock a single color or cycle through them, and you can adjust brightness and ripple speed separately.
