The Govee TV Backlight 3 Lite is an LED strip that mounts to the back of a 55 to 65 inch TV and uses a small camera to read what is on screen, then spills matching colors onto the wall for an immersive glow during movies and gaming. A fish-eye correction feature improves how accurately the camera maps colors to the edges of the picture, and the lights sync to the action through the Govee app and DreamView. It also works as standard ambient lighting with scenes and music sync when the TV is off. Setup runs the strip around the back of the panel with adhesive and a clip kit, and a calibration step aligns the camera. Best fit for a media wall or gaming setup. The camera needs a reasonably lit room to read colors well, so it is less accurate in total darkness.

Frequently asked questions
What TV sizes does it fit?
This version is sized for 55 to 65 inch TVs. Govee makes other lengths for smaller and larger screens, so match the kit to your panel.
How does it know what colors to show?
A small camera mounts to the TV and reads what is on screen, then the strip mirrors those colors onto the wall in real time using the app and DreamView.
Does it work in a dark room?
It works best with some ambient light so the camera can read the screen accurately. In a completely dark room the color matching is less precise.
Is it hard to install?
The strip attaches around the back of the TV with adhesive and corner clips, and you run a short in-app calibration to align the camera. Most users set it up in well under an hour.
