The first projector that really caught my eyes is this wood grain detailed projector. It looks great and does just as many cool things as any other projector out there. It can show up to 21 lighting modes and 14 different colors that should make for a unique experience no matter what you choose. You can also listen to tunes through the built-in speaker to add another dimension to your new environment. As discussed in our Bresser Junior Astro-Planetarium Deluxe review, this star projector draws many parallels to the Bresser-made National Geographic Astro Planetarium but doesn't include an integrated FM radio or the ability to attach an audio device. The Bresser Junior can only be powered by 3 x AA batteries, so buyers will likely need to grab some spares if they plan on using it long-term. The 2.0 version of this projector comes with the BlissLights smartphone app, connecting via Bluetooth. Using the app, you can select from seven effects modes, modify the projector's intensity, adjust laser brightness, and even set the rotation speed. Additionally, you can create your own custom color blend through the app. Just keep in mind that the stars will always appear either green or blue, depending on which model you get. Enhance the mood with optional edge lighting. Where edge lighting is included, strips of small LEDs around the perimeter of the panel provide a soft glow to complement the panel’s star light effect. These LEDs can be set to one of eight colours, have adjustable brightness and can cycle through colours, depending on the program set.

The spherical design means you have near 360-degree angling, and it comes with a 1.5 m cable, giving maximum positioning flexibility. This gives it a slight edge over the Encalife Atmosphere Smart Galaxy Smart Projector, which has similar specs but can only be used in four fixed positions. During our Aurora Borealis Northern Lights Star Projector review, we were impressed with the musical rhythm mode. It does a good job or adjusting the lighting display to match the 'feel' of the music, and you can adjust the sensitivity of the microphone to alter the power of the light display, making it perfect for using at parties. Calculate how many star points you will have per square meter on your board and how many of each diameter (if you have a mixed diameter kit). We usually recommend 50 - 100 fibres per square meter so you should choose your star ceiling kit accordingly.

With three adjustable ridges on the bottom, you can easily position this projector at three different angles, including upward onto a ceiling. It utilizes both LED and direct laser diode technologies to produce dynamic RGB projections with moving patterns. It's portable and convenient, powered by a USB cable, enabling you to connect it to a computer or a portable battery. Create A Night Sky Projection Kit:If you've got time with the kids to fill, this could be a fun introduction to stargazing. Don't expect to be dazzled by a plug-and-play awe-inspiring experience, but you can enjoy the process of setting it up with your kids.★★★ Discover the versatility of LED starry ceiling panels.. They can come in pretty much any shape, size and colour making them suitable for any environment and room style. The 150 individual LEDs per square meter can provide a decent amount of light, however the panels can be combined with spotlights or ceiling lights so the panels can function as decorative lighting as well as main illumination. This project will create a mess, so proper preparation of the room will help ease your clean-up. Start by moving smaller furniture and portable objects other portable objects out of the room. Locate larger pieces away from the area where you will work. Cover the items with a heavy drop cloth to protect them from paint. If you have a ceiling fixture, wrap it in plastic and secure with painter’s tape. If applicable, place tape over the light fixture switch to prevent accidentally turning the light on while it’s covered. Remove dust and cobwebs from the space. Like the Atmosphere Smart Galaxy Projector, you won't get scientific accuracy, but you'll get a fantastic 'insomnia-busting' experience that allows your children (or yourself) to sleep better at night.

The Sega Toys Homestar Flux stands out as a compact and stylish star projector, known for its power and sleek design. While it comes with a higher price tag, it delivers a lot in return.

A: The operating temperature range for the fibre optic star ceiling kit is 0°C - 40° C. Q: Can I install the star ceiling kit in bathrooms, steam rooms or saunas? This particular projector is aimed at children, and the stars it projects aren't scientific like you'd find on the more 'adult' Sega Homestar Flux. But it still features a slide projector and three easy-to-handle discs containing 24 color images taken by the Hubble Telescope. Each disc has a different theme; Nebulas, Spacecraft & Astronauts and Planets & the Moon. Although small and discreet, this USB-powered projector has the capability to turn any room into a celestial wonderland. When connected to a USB power source, it projects hundreds of laser stars, providing a truly immersive and atmospheric experience.

Sold as the 4M Night Sky Projection Kit, (or in the U.K. as the Science Museum Create A Night Sky) this cardboard cut-out might not seem at first to be a worthy addition to our list of the best star projectors. After all, what's on offer here is merely some tiny holes in cardboard positioned over a lamp. The resulting image is pretty basic, of course, but how you get there is the clever part. Our Light engine summary table allows you to compare the light engines by features and maximum bundle capacity, while the Fibre optic bundle summary table shows you the available bundle options with details on fibre count, diameter and length. Q: Will I need to hire an electrician to install it?

Ceiling star lights - Important safety guidance

Summer days are great aren’t they? The sky is blue, the sun is shining and there’s no need for an overcoat or woolly jumper. Nat King Cole sang about the lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer and we are hearing him loud and clear. Then there’s Shakespeare comparing his love to a summer’s day and countless painters and artists getting the beauty of a summer afternoon onto canvas. Yep, summer days are fantastic. But Danny and Sandy were on to something when they talked about ohhhh! Those sum-mer ni-i-i-ghts. A: Yes, you can, as the optical fibres don’t contain electrical parts. However, the light engine needs to be kept away from moisture, water and temperature above 40° C. Please ensure that the light engine has sufficient ventilation and is not placed in a completely sealed area. Q: I don’t have time, the skills or the tools to make my own starlight ceiling. Can you make it for me? If you’re looking for a projector that acts as a sort of nightlight or vibe-setter, consider one with a timer function to turn off your projector after 15, 30, or 60 minutes of operation, helping to preserve energy if you use it to fall asleep at night. Projection Space In reference to Class IIIa lasers (like laser pointers or some used in star projectors), the FDA says: ' Depending on power and beam area, can be momentarily hazardous when directly viewed or when staring directly at the beam with an unaided eye. Risk of injury increases when viewed with optical aids.' Electrical work should only be performed by trained and competent persons with sufficient skills and knowledge to avoid danger. If in any doubt, we recommend engaging the services of an approved electrician.
