FAQs
Which size Hue Play gradient lightstrip do I need?
For TVs, we have three sizes of Play gradient lightstrips: made for 55”, 65” or 75” TVs. For monitors, we also have three sizes: made for single 24–27" monitors, made for single 32–34" monitors and made for 24–27" triple-monitor setups. If you have a different size TV or monitor, we recommend getting a Play gradient lightstrip that is slightly smaller than your TV or monitor. Because the lightstrip is bright, it does not matter if it does not reach the corners on the back of the TV or the monitor.
If you have a TV smaller than 50” or a monitor smaller than 24”, we recommend using Philips Hue Play light bars instead.Can I plug the Hue Play gradient lightstrip into the power supply unit for my Hue Sync Box or Play light bar?
No. Please use the power supply unit included in the box for your Hue Play gradient lightstrip as plugging in the lightstrip to the same power supply unit as the Hue Sync Box or Play light bars can impact the performance of your Philips Hue products.
Does the Hue Play gradient lightstrip come with mounts to attach it to my TV or monitor?
Yes. Each Play gradient lightstrip comes with curved and straight mounting clips with adhesive backings. This makes it easy to attach it to the back of your TV or PC monitor.
What should I do if my lightstrip won't connect to the Bridge?
If your Play gradient lightstrip for PC is not connecting to the Bridge (and other devices are working properly), your Bridge may need to be updated. In the app, go to Settings > Software update.

How much room should be between the back of my monitor or TV and the wall behind it for the optimal light effect?
