LumiSync PDP — draft copy (Aug 2026)

Internal draft for review. Not linked in navigation. Copy and section order below match the current mockup (dark theme, Sora / Plus Jakarta Sans). Gallery and buy box are written as a build spec — a Shopify page cannot hold a real product form.

Changed in this revision: all HDMI / sync-box references removed at your instruction; comparison table reduced from four options to three; gallery reduced to five real images with the labelled product-breakdown shot first; placeholder “asset needed” slots removed; mounting hardware marked included; page recoloured to a dark theme with cyan primary and magenta hover.

1. Buy sequence — build spec

Layout: Gallery left, buy box right at 1100px+ (buy box sticky, 400–460px). Two columns at 700–1099px (buy box 300–340px). Stacked at <700px with a full-bleed square gallery and no media radius.

Native Shopify elements to reuse from the Helio theme, not rebuild: product media gallery block, variant picker, quantity input, add-to-cart, accelerated checkout buttons, cart drawer, dynamic price. Sticky add-to-cart is already enabled in templates/product.json.

Header: logo mark plus wordmark, nav (Shop / How it works / Support), and a cart button with an item-count pip that links straight to checkout.

Eyebrow: TV ambient lighting

LumiSync™ Immersive TV Backlight

The room reacts to your screen — nothing to rewire. A small camera reads the colours on your panel and mirrors them onto the wall behind it. One 3.8 m / 12.5 ft strip. Works with whatever is already on screen.

Price: pulled live from Shopify ($54.99 against a $75.99 compare-at, save $21.00). Never hard-code. Savings badge is generated from the compare-at, not typed.

Length option: one value — 3.8 m / 12.5 ft.

CTA: Add to cart. One CTA voice across the whole page.

Gallery — 5 images, each answering a different buyer question

1. Labelled product breakdown — what is this and what do I get? (your uploaded shot: camera, control box, LED strip and app, all callout-labelled. Sized to fit whole in frame so the labels stay readable.) [NEEDS UPLOAD to Shopify Files before this goes live — currently a local file.]
2. Room shot, lit wall — does this look good in a real room, or like a gaming rig? (lights_ai.png, cover crop, focal point on the wall glow)
3. Unlit wall vs lit wall — what difference does it actually make? (Before_and_after_for_store.png — supplier illustration, stand-in only)
4. Wide room at night — how far does the glow spread? (62E9F98A.png, fits whole in frame so its on-image text is not cut)
5. Camera module close-up — where does the camera sit and how visible is it? (IMG_2540.png, cropped tight to the module above the bezel)

2. The moment this fixes

Lights off. Great scene. And a black rectangle floating on a dark wall.

Two things send people looking for this at 10pm. The picture is the only thing in the room, so your eyes work overtime against the dark wall behind it. And the scene stops dead at the bezel — the explosion, the ocean, the sunset, all of it trapped inside 55 inches of glass.

Ambient light behind a screen is the old fix — forum regulars have recommended a lamp or a plain white strip behind the TV for years to cut eye strain and deepen perceived blacks. It works. It just sits there at one colour while the film moves.

• Eye strain at 10pm. A bright panel against a dark wall makes your pupils fight the difference. Raising the light immediately behind the screen is the standard answer, and it has been for as long as forums have argued about it.
• The scene stops at the bezel. Reviewers who live with reactive backlights describe the same thing — the picture feels larger than the panel, because the wall carries the colour outward.
• The alternative is a lamp. A lamp or a single-colour strip does the eye-strain job and nothing else. It sits at one temperature while the film changes every few seconds.

3. How it works

A camera watches the screen. The strip repeats what it sees.

No source switching, nothing to reconfigure when you change inputs. The camera looks at the panel from above, samples the colour across it, and the strip behind the TV lights the wall to match — in real time, as the scene moves.

1. The camera looks at your screen. Mounted above the panel and angled down, it samples colour across the picture rather than tapping the video signal. Nothing sits between your devices and the TV.
2. The strip repeats it on the wall. The 12.5 ft run behind the panel lights to match what the camera reads, and keeps changing as the scene does.
3. You trim it in the app. Colour settings and sensitivity live in the companion app, so you can pull the reaction back until it supports the picture instead of competing with it.

Media slot: currently the supplier before/after illustration. Flagged for our own capture before launch. Note its native proportions are near-square (1087×976), so a wide letterbox frame crops it badly.

4. What arrives

In the box, and on the wall in about ten minutes.

1. Wipe the back of the panel first. Dust and the factory release film are the two reasons strip adhesive lets go early. Clean, dry, then peel.
2. Inset the run 1–2 inches from the edge. Sitting the strip right on the edge is what makes individual LED dots visible from the side. Pull it inward and the wall does the diffusing for you.
3. Ease the corners, do not fold them hard. A sharp 90-degree bend puts tension on the tape and it will lift within weeks. Curve it and let the corner sit flat.
4. Mount the camera, then calibrate once. Position it above the panel looking down at the screen, then run the calibration in the app in the light you actually watch in. This step is what separates a good result from a bad one.

What comes with a new purchase

Image: the labelled product-breakdown shot, square frame, no crop. Same image as gallery slot 1 — consider a distinct shot here so it is not duplicated on one page.

• LED strip, 3.8 m / 12.5 ft — included
• Camera module — in the photography
• Controller unit — in the photography
• Mounting hardware / spare adhesive — included  [NEEDS YOUR CONFIRMATION — supplier data does not state this]
• Shipping weight — 0.24 kg

5. Your real options

Three ways to solve this. Camera sync is one of them.

A plain bias strip is cheap and never changes colour. Doing nothing costs nothing. Here is where this kit actually sits.

Comparison price points are public list prices observed August 2026 and change without notice. Only the LumiSync price is live from this store.

6. What to expect

Four things worth knowing before it arrives.

• Dim rooms read best. This is a night-time upgrade. With lamps on or a window behind the TV the camera has less to work with and the effect flattens.
• Calibration is not optional. Owners of camera-based kits split hard into two camps, and the line between them is almost always whether they calibrated properly in the light they watch in.
• The camera is visible. It sits above the panel in your sightline. Slim, but there. If a completely clean bezel matters more to you than the effect, this is not the right upgrade and we would rather say so.
• Your picture does not change. This lights the room, not the screen. Perceived contrast improves because the wall is no longer black — the panel itself is untouched.

7. Before you buy

Questions people actually ask.

Where something is genuinely unconfirmed, it is marked as such rather than guessed at.

Will it follow Netflix on the TV itself, or only a console?
Anything visible on the panel. The camera samples the screen from outside, so the source never matters — the TV's own apps, a console, cable, a laptop, a phone cast. Nothing sits between your devices and the TV, and there is no input to re-select.

Will it fit my TV?
The kit is one 3.8 m / 12.5 ft strip. That reaches all four sides of panels up to about 55 inches, and three sides — top and both edges — up to about 75. Above 75 inches even a three-sided route runs short, so measure the perimeter of your panel before ordering.

Does the room have to be dark?
It reads best in a dim room, which is also when you want it. Bright lamps or a window washing the panel give the camera a weaker signal, and a bright wall behind the TV mutes the effect. Turning the sensitivity up in the app helps; it will not beat daylight.

Can I see the camera from the sofa?
Yes. The module sits above the panel looking down at the screen, so it is in your sightline from the front. Most people stop noticing it within a day, but it is not invisible and we would rather you knew now.

How does it power up, and what plugs into what?
The kit shows a strip, a camera module and a controller. The connector standard, input voltage and whether it draws from a TV USB port or a wall adapter are not confirmed from the supplier data on file.
[UNRESOLVED — power input, connector type, LED count/density and RGB vs RGBIC addressing all missing from product data. Do not publish a claim here.]

How does shipping work?
Shipping is flat-rate and calculated at checkout, where you will also see the delivery estimate for your address. Orders are processed in 1–2 business days and tracking is emailed the moment the parcel is dispatched.

What if I want to send it back?
You have 14 days from delivery. The kit needs to be unused and back in its original packaging. Email quanmediabuyer@gmail.com and we will send you a return label — we cover return shipping — then you choose a replacement or a refund. If it turns up damaged or dead on arrival, email a photo instead of shipping it back and we will send a replacement.

8. Final CTA

Measure once, then let the wall do the rest.

One 12.5 ft run, a camera that reads whatever is already on screen, and an app to dial the sensitivity back until it feels right. If your panel is too big for a four-sided run, go three-sided — it is the same kit.

Open items before this goes live

• Image conflict: the product-breakdown shot labels the camera “HDMI-Synced Camera”, which directly contradicts the HDMI removal across this copy. It also names the app on-image while the copy deliberately keeps app detail out. Relabel the artwork — “Screen-Reading Camera” or similar — before launch.
• Image duplication: that same shot is now both gallery slot 1 and the “what comes with a new purchase” image.
• Upload needed: the breakdown image is a local file, not yet in Shopify Files.
• Product data fix: the option set is named “Emitting Color” but its only value is a length (3.8M-12.5Ft). Rename it to “Length”, or add real emitting-colour values — otherwise Helio's variant dropdown reads wrong.
• Unconfirmed specs: power input and connector type, LED count and density, RGB vs RGBIC addressing, camera resolution and mount method, Wi-Fi band, exact accessory count, adhesive spec, warranty term.
• Assets: our own capture still needed to replace the supplier before/after illustration in section 3.
• No ad creative supplied, so the ad-to-page congruency pass has not run. Hero promise and CTA voice need re-checking against the campaign once ads exist.
• Theme note: live-theme file writes are blocked, so these sections have not been built into Helio. Each section above is self-contained and maps to one theme section; no global theme element is restyled.
