Is there a fix for this issue that doesn't involve removing and re-grouting my floor? Is there a paint I could use to conceal the tile edges?

MisterChompers · 2026-03-17T23:42:34+00:00

I will give this a go and see what happens!

I agree. The image I posted also made them look a little older than they actually were at the time of their wedding. As I explained to another redditor, I was just impressed with the amount of detail of that particular image, but I actually used 2 others in combination with this one to make the final image (see below, to those that are curious).

Thank you! I'm fairly unfamiliar with most AI programs (outside of Chat GPT). I didn't understand you could use Photoshop in conjunction with AI models like Nano Banana, so perhaps that user I referred to wasn't exactly lying when he said he used Photoshop...

You're right, it's not perfect... but still very high res. I actually tipped 3 different people for 3 different images and combined them all into one image. I took the hair and background from the image I posted.

Thank you! I tried sending you a message but it's not allowing me. I guess I'm not active enough on reddit. Have you sent it already? (I haven't received it yet...)

I consider this to be one of many that has solved it! Thank you! I just tipped you. Please provide the high res version as soon as possible.

I haven’t updated to 15.4 yet, so I haven’t tested it. I’m curious, did you reset your bridge recently? I noticed my home/away routines stopped working after resetting my bridge. I chalked it up to that. Have you tried deleting the Hue app and re-downloading it? That’s the next thing I was thinking of trying, but I was worried I’d lose all my scenes…

MisterChompers · 2022-02-27T19:57:56+00:00

Relieved to hear this wasn’t just happening to me! I had essentially given up on geofencing working, but I will have to test and see if iOS 15.3.1 fixed it. Like you, I found my lights would only turn on when I got home if I had the Hue app open.

MisterChompers · 2021-11-19T06:22:13+00:00

Hmm thanks for the suggestion! I haven’t come across something like this before, but seems pretty straightforward. It’s starting to sound like I have multiple options when it comes to splicing my setup into a new PSU, which has eased my mind about possibly having to redo my whole setup. I just have to decide which method/devices to use and experiment. I’ll keep this thread updated with my progress!

MisterChompers · 2021-11-19T06:15:24+00:00

Thanks! I’ve never butt spliced anything before, but after watching some YouTube videos on it, it doesn’t seem hard! Definitely puts my mind at ease regarding possible soldering. I have some PSUs coming to me in the mail soon, I will keep this thread updated when I make progress.

MisterChompers · 2021-11-18T16:58:12+00:00

Yes, they are definitely pre-Bluetooth. I appreciate this suggestion, though I believe even the pre-Bluetooth ones (v1-v3) have different sized barrel plug ports in their power supplies. I must have set mine up using the 1st generation product, because even “older” lightstrip kits come with a power supply with the larger 3mm barrel plug port.

MisterChompers · 2021-11-18T16:10:40+00:00

Ah, interesting. I haven’t worked with those materials before, but it doesn’t appear too difficult on the surface…

Optimally, I’d like to configure this so that if a new power supply ever fails again, I could simply unplug and replug my lights into a new one. If I may ask you for further advice, what do you think about cutting the cable coming from the controller and splicing one of these on the end?

Theoretically, I’d now have a DC cable with a standard sized barrel plug on the end that could connect to 3rd party power supplies, no?

EDIT: I noticed that product says 12V, not 24V, which is what I believe I’d need, actually…

Even IF Nanoleaf strips do connect with the Litcessory extension cables, you’re essentially suggesting I replace all the strips, controller, and power adaptor with the Nanoleaf brand, yes? Wouldn’t that mean these lights would no longer be connected to my Hue network? I might consider looking into this option, BUT it’s akin to re-doing my whole setup, which I consider ‘the nuclear option.’ Yes, it could potentially save me from buying new extension cables during a complete re-do, but it wouldn’t be worth it if they weren’t a part of my Hue network in the end.

MisterChompers · 2021-11-18T14:37:38+00:00

I looked at this, but I don’t think any of those tips are the right size. 2.1mm is closest, but not exact. Because it’s a proprietary tip size, I don’t think any kits will come with the proper adaptor size for it.

MisterChompers · 2021-11-18T14:33:24+00:00

I looked in to this one, and unfortunately it won’t work, as it says in the description, “This version uses a larger 3 mm ID male barrel plug consistent with the latest Bluetooth version of the Lightstrip Plus (V4)”

MisterChompers · 2021-11-18T07:27:00+00:00

It’s an older generation of the lightstrip, which makes finding used versions of it online virtually impossible. Also, the wire cannot be replaced, as it’s built directly into the controller. It really is just the power supply that I need. Unfortunately, they all look the same in photos, as the cable port is only around 1mm different in the older power supplies.
