Elgato has launched a new Light Strip of color-changing LEDs, along with a set of acoustic panels intent to help streamers cut echo and make their home studios look more enticing. The Elgato Light Strip may not have a clever name, but it does pack 108 RGBWW LEDs along its 79 inch length.
Those LEDs aren’t just the usual red, green, and blue ones that most light strips have, but instead Elgato throw in dedicated warm and cold white LEDs too. That makes for a broader color and temperature range than rivals, the company says.
Elgato, the leading provider of hardware and software for content creators, today announced the launch of two new product lines to help creators personalize their home studios and streaming setups – Elgato Light Strip and Elgato Wave Panels.
Elgato Light Strip offers convenient app-controlled ambient lighting with RGBWW LEDs capable of displaying 16 million colors, with a wide brightness and color temperature range to create the perfect look for your setup. Elgato Wave Panels feature two-layer foam construction to reduce room echo and reverberation, easily mounting to your wall in modular hexagonal panels. Whether it’s lighting up your stream or improving room acoustics, Elgato Light Strip and Elgato Wave Panels provide new ways to make your space, and your content, your own.
Elgato is introducing more accessories for streamers and content creators this week. Two new accessory lines have just been announced, the Elgato Light Strip and Elgato Wave Panels, both of which aim to help people personalise their home studios.
Starting off with the Elgato Light Strip – as you would expect, this is an RGB LED strip capable of displaying 16 million colours at different levels of brightness and colour temperature. Using an app, users can control the lights via an app. Each strip contains 108 RGBWW LEDs, which help provide a wider colour temperature range, capable of up to 2,000 lumens in brightness and colour temperatures from 3500K to 6500K.

The Elgato Light Strip is designed to help creators make their content stand out from the crowd, with controllable RGB lighting that s not only bright, but also flicker-free thanks to an intelligent Pulse Width Modulation setup.
This means that you don t get that nasty strobing effect you sometimes get from other cheaper lights. It also offers convenient app-controlled ambient lighting that you can tweak via the Elgato Control Center app, desktop software and even via Elgato s Stream Deck.
The Elgato Light Strip shines bright thanks to 108 RGBWW LEDs, but also offers a wide range of colour adjustment and warmth settings. It s capable of outputting up to 2,000 lumens in color temperatures from 3,500-6,500K. Which means that you can get easy-on-the-eye lighting day or night with a simple press of a button.
