  1. The Color Strip LED light always reverts back to “FLASH” once turned off rather than the last setting (such as “WHITE”). Is there a way to always turn back on to the last setting since the lights are turned on/off daily?

    Bill Mountain asks The Color Strip LED light always reverts back to "FLASH" once turned off rather than the last setting (such as "WHITE"). Is there a way to always turn back on to the last setting since the lights are turned on/off daily?
    Manuals+ clarified question
    Question

    How can I make the auraLED Color Strip remember its last color setting instead of reverting to 'FLASH' mode when turned off?

    Answer

    Based on the provided manual for the auraLED Color Strip, there is no mention of a built-in memory function that saves the last used setting when the power is completely cut (such as turning off a TV or unplugging the USB source). The device typically defaults to its factory start-up mode, which is often a cycle or 'FLASH' mode, when it receives new power.

    To potentially maintain your settings, try the following:

    • Use the Remote to Power Off: Instead of cutting the power at the source (like turning off the TV or unplugging the USB), use the OFF button on the wireless remote control. This puts the strip in a standby mode which may preserve the color selection.
    • Check Power Source: If the USB port you are using loses power entirely when the device it is connected to is turned off, the LED strip will reset. If you plug the USB into a constant power source (like a wall adapter), you can use the remote to turn it on and off, which should keep your last setting active.

    If the unit continues to reset even when using the remote's power button while connected to a constant power source, it is likely a limitation of the internal controller's hardware.

    Question

    How do I set up and use the auraLED ColorStrip LED lights?

    Answer

    To set up and use your auraLED ColorStrip LED lights, please follow these steps based on the user manual:

    Installation:

    • Clean the back surface of your TV or monitor to ensure it is free from dust and oils.
    • Locate the USB port on your device. If it doesn't have one, you can use any other USB power source.
    • Measure the area you want to cover before peeling the adhesive backing.
    • Peel off the backing and apply the strip to the cleaned surface, pressing down for a few seconds to secure it.
    • Connect the LED strip to the USB cable and insert the cable into the USB port.

    Using the Remote:

    • Remove the protective plastic strip from the remote control battery compartment.
    • Press the ON button to turn on the lights.
    • Use the color buttons to select from 16 different colors.
    • Adjust brightness using the up/down buttons (1 and 2).
    • Select from 4 light settings: Flash, Strobe, Fade, or Smooth transition effects.

    Important Note: Ensure the Remote Receiver on the LED strip is not covered or blocked to ensure the remote control functions properly.

  3. Is there a way to customize the light options? For example: Fade between Red, white, and blue only.

    Larry asks Is there a way to customize the light options? For example: Fade between Red, white, and blue only.
    Manuals+ clarified question
    Question

    How can I customize the light options to fade between specific colors like red, white, and blue?

    Answer

    Based on the auraLED ColorStrip manual, the device features 4 pre-set mood light settings (Flash, Strobe, Fade, and Smooth) and 16 selectable colors. However, the manual does not indicate that the remote supports custom programming for specific color sequences, such as fading only between red, white, and blue.

    To use the built-in transition effects, you can use the following buttons on your wireless remote control:

    • Button 7 (Flash): Transition effect.
    • Button 8 (Strobe): Transition effect.
    • Button 9 (Fade): Transition effect.
    • Button 10 (Smooth): Transition effect.

    You can use Buttons 1 and 2 to change the speed of these transitions. While you can manually select Red, White, or Blue using the individual color buttons, the automated fade cycles typically cycle through all available colors in the pre-programmed sequence.

  4. Can a usb adater that plugs into a 110 outlet be used?

    John asks Can a usb adater that plugs into a 110 outlet be used?
    Manuals+ clarified question
    Question

    Can I use a USB wall adapter to power the auraLED lights?

    Answer

    Yes, you can use a USB wall adapter that plugs into a 110V outlet. According to the manual, if your TV does not have a USB port, you may use any other USB power source. However, you must ensure the adapter meets the product's specifications: it should provide a DC 5V output with a current between 0.5A and 2A. Always check to make sure the voltage of the power source is exactly 5V before connecting the LED strip.

  5. Anyone having experience of the LED lighting strip coming on when the TV is not on? Is this normal or can this happen?

    Tammy asks Anyone having experience of the LED lighting strip coming on when the TV is not on? Is this normal or can this happen?
    Manuals+ clarified question
    Question

    Why do my auraLED lights turn on when the TV is off?

    Answer

    Yes, this can happen and is usually related to how your TV manages power to its USB ports. Many modern TVs continue to provide power to the USB ports for a short time after the screen is turned off, or they may 'pulse' power to the ports periodically to check for software updates or maintain network connections.

    Because the auraLED ColorStrip is powered directly via the USB cable, any power coming from the TV will cause the lights to activate. To resolve this, you can:

    • Check your TV's settings for 'Energy Saving' or 'USB Power' options to see if you can disable power to USB when the TV is off.
    • Use the provided Wireless Remote Control to manually press the OFF button (button 3) when you are finished watching TV.
    • Plug the USB cable into a different 5V power source, such as a wall adapter, that you can control independently.
  6. The remote control isn’t controlling the lights. I have removed the battery plastic and have tried replacing the battery. The remote receptor is visible and not blocked by anything.

    BC asks The remote control isn't controlling the lights. I have removed the battery plastic and have tried replacing the battery. The remote receptor is visible and not blocked by anything.
    Manuals+ clarified question
    Question

    Why is my auraLED remote control not working even after removing the plastic tab and replacing the battery?

    Answer

    If your auraLED remote is still not controlling the lights after removing the plastic tab and replacing the battery, please check the following steps based on the manual:

    • Check the Remote Receiver: Ensure the Remote Receiver (the small sensor on the LED strip cable) is not only visible but also positioned correctly. The manual states it must be in a clear line of sight to the remote to work properly.
    • Power Connection: Verify that the USB cable is securely connected to a 5V power source. If the LED strip is not receiving adequate power, it may not respond to remote signals.
    • Battery Orientation: Ensure the new CR2025 or CR2032 battery is inserted with the correct polarity.
    • Button Press: Make sure you are pressing the ON button (button 4 in the manual) to initialize the strip.
    • Interference: Ensure there are no other infrared devices nearby that might be interfering with the signal.

    If the lights still do not respond, there may be a hardware malfunction with either the receiver on the strip or the remote itself.

  7. The lights stay green even after I turn them off.

    Gretchen asks The lights stay green even after I turn them off.
    Manuals+ clarified question
    Question

    Why do my auraLED lights stay green after I turn them off?

    Answer

    If your auraLED ColorStrip remains green after turning it off with the remote, it usually indicates that the strip is still receiving a small amount of residual power from the USB source or that the remote signal was not fully processed. You can try the following steps to resolve this:

    • Check the Remote: Ensure you are pointing the remote directly at the Remote Receiver (the small component near the USB plug) and press the 'OFF' button firmly.
    • Power Cycle: Unplug the USB cable from the power source (TV or adapter) for 30 seconds and then plug it back in to reset the controller.
    • Check the Power Source: If the lights stay on when plugged into a TV USB port, it may be because your TV provides 'standby power' even when turned off. Try plugging the USB into a standard 5V wall adapter to see if the issue persists.
    • Battery Replacement: If the remote is unresponsive or inconsistent, replace the CR2025 battery.

    If the lights continue to glow while the unit is supposedly off, there may be an internal malfunction. Per the manual's safeguards, do not attempt to repair the product yourself; if it malfunctions, it should be taken to a qualified electrician or replaced.
