 This article is about the LED light installation in my room.
 LED strips, and ATX power supply, and a custom board are used.
+The brightness of the strips can be controlled using a remote.
+Different colour temperatures allow different ambiance.
+This project is covered in [[https://www.cuvoodoo.info/?post_type=podcast&p=95|episode #008]].

+======= colours ======
+The LED strips allow the brightness of the light to be spread over the room, removing central points from light bulbs.
+I used LED strips with different colour temperatures:
+  * cold (blueish) white above the work bench
+  * plain white in the centre
+  * warm (yellowish) white above the sofa

+This allow me the change the ambiance:
+  * cold to concentrate
+  * mixed for general purpose
+  * warm and dim when relaxing
+These modes are set in the firmware and switched between using the remote.
