R201A

DECEMBER 2022 UPDATE:
A significant design change is being made to LumaSync to allow significantly longer runs of LED strips, increasing from a 5ft max to upwards of 60ft. LumaSync will increase in size to fit larger components for dealing with the additional power requirements, so we have taken down renders showing the device as they are no longer accurate. Prototypes of the updated version are in production now, and more information will be posted here once the design is finalized.
