Default CYRON questions?

I was wondering where is the best place to buy it (best price?)

I also thought costco was selling this for much cheaper, is it the one that changes color?

can you get a natural 6500k white color out of it?

How do you attach it Does it just tape to the wall?

can you extend the wires.. so the same unit can run to the seating area also..?

Thanks

I bought mine at Costco, though I haven't seen them there since last fall. Their price was ~$50 for a set of 6, which was significantly cheaper than anywhere else. All of the lights are 6500K natural in addition to multiple colors (based on what setting you choose) . They clip into little plastic locks that can be attached with double-sided foam tape or velcro. As far as extending the wires, I'm sure you can cut and splice additional length if you wish. It's just standard light-gauge electrical wire.

You can only get 6500K white light out of the "Pro" light bars. As far as I know the only options to buy those are Amazon and directly from Cyron. There isn't much difference in price either way...

There are several different ways to install the bars. You can fasten them directly to the wall with double side tape, nails, screws, etc. Or you can use double sided tape (and the included clips) and secure them to the back of your TV. I think this is the more common installation method.

They do sell wire extensions, but I'm sure you'll have to buy those directly from Cyron. If you don't mind snipping some wires, you could probably extend them yourself.

Here are some pics of my Cyron Pro light bar installation:


The bars are taped to the wall just to get them out of the way while I ran the wires and remounted the TV.


Light bars mounted on back of TV.

Let me know if you have any other questions...
