As Prime Day comes to an end, I'm about to buy LED lights

With just a few hours left to spend some of your money during Amazon Prime Day there are a few deals that might be worthy of a quick speculative buy. I've been testing a Govee floor lamp recently, and I like the app and software, and as luck would have it there are some Prime Day deals happening right now, so before I hit my bargain booze, I'm going LED light shopping. 

For me, the LED strip story has history. I’m soon going to be redecorating an aging room in my house, and I’d like to do something interesting with LED strips. I’m thinking at the moment I may get some uplighting coving, which is like regular coving, but mounted lower down the wall and with a channel for LED strips, which can then produce a sexy strip of light around your room. Honestly, it’s not as naff as I’ve made it sound. 

Govee has a few LED strips that can help with this, and there are other brands out there too that offer similar. It might be the last thing I buy this year, after spending my pocket money on more than I expected to. So far I’ve bought a Lowepro camera bag, an Xbox controller and an Instant Pot.
