Should you put LED lights behind TV?

By installing LED strip lights behind TV to increase the general brightness in your room, you can reduce eye strain caused by the sharp contrast between a bright TV screen and a dark room.

What does TV backlight do?

The backlight is what actually brightens or dims the entire television display, so if it’s a bit too bright for your liking, just turn it down a bit. And if it’s not bright enough, crank it up to a level that’s suitable.

Are TV bias lights worth it?

Bias lighting makes the grays and blacks of your screen look richer. It increases the ambient light around the screen without shining more light in the viewer’s eyes. Moreover, it tricks your mind and makes the contrast look better.

Is it better for your eyes to watch TV in the dark?

Watching TV in the dark should be avoided – trust us, you’ll be able to watch your favourite festive films for longer! When the room is dark your pupils dilate, allowing light to penetrate your eyes more easily, causing pain and eye strain due to glare.

What color bias lighting is best?

Most TVs and monitors fall somewhere between 6000K and 6500K, so your best bet is to get one in that range. If your bias light is too warm, say 2700K, your TV will look out of place and the colors will look muddy.

Do OLED TVs need bias lighting?

If you suffer from OLED eye stain, we recommended lowering the brightness of your display after installing bias lighting. It sounds counter-intuitive, but a dim surround of bias lighting makes the display look brighter, so you don’t need to run the TV at such a high brightness level.

What is the difference between backlight and direct lit?

Direct-lit LED backlights are an offshoot of full-array backlighting, in that they use LEDs spread across the entire back panel of the TV. In addition, these TVs are much deeper than previous LED-backlit models, especially the ultra-thin edge LED sets.
