Talking Sync-It is here!!!! well sort of!
so... having a tidy up in the ManCave...

and the pile of HD fans I have spare was sitting next to an old Psu that's also spare.. Looking at me they was... time to play!!

so play I did..

and then this happened...



(ignore the Thermaltake fan!! I'm clean now I promise!!!)

now what I thought..

why not dump the button controller,, throw in the NoPro (Node Pro) thats spare.. long mini usb cable to pc...

and then this happened



NoPro #1 is the one outside my case

The RGB of 17 fans and 8 strips controlled in Link??..Sir YES Sir!!.. 2 NoPro's in Link??.. Sire YES Sir.. Desk LEDs synced to Case LEDs?? Sir YES Sir..

so think a little more I did.....

and then this happened


so... Strips.. I obviously need to replace the fans mounted to the back of my screens and under my desk with strips (no they dont spin lol.. RGB'z only here :) )...

I ran usb from node pro under my desk to the usb pass through on the back of my mousepad :) and the NoPro and RGB Fan Led Hub are powered by a the Spare Psu...

Thoughts??

i did something similar with a kit i built myself couple of years ago from parts i built and arduino with 3 screens, but ditched the screens and now using one 60" sony tv. im now working on fitting a lighting node pro kit inside the tv with custom led refectors/diffusers on the back panel and fitting a usb port to the tv itself to plug into the pc.

My wife has bought me a CoPro for Christmas, I also have a NoPro and 4 led strips, a ComMini and 4 of the old strips. I was wondering what to do with them all, I never thought of using them outside the case (except maybe under it.)
I've currnetly got a couple of those cheapish led strips on the back of my 2 monitors, but half the time I forget to turn them on.
Anybody know how many strips can be run off each of the Commander Minl's RGB ports, or the CoPro for that matter.

I don't know what the limits are on the Commander Mini (I've never actually run into them), but the Commander Pro tops out at four strips per channel.

Not technically true lol.... 8 strips configured as 6 LL fans works on a CoPro/NoPro Channel.. not all modes would appear correct mind.

Not officially supported though.. not done it my self and not my fault if your stuff dies lol....

as for the CoMi.. not sure.. i had 4 strips and a Dominator Airflow pro rgb cooler on my CoMi... back in da day.... 6 months ago... lol

Absolutely. I was looking South East from my house the other night and I swear that I saw a blue glow in the sky. Was that your rig?
