Gar­lands are one of the favorite Christ­mas dec­o­ra­tions for both chil­dren and adults. A wire with bright bulbs that can be placed, as a rule, any­where — a Christ­mas tree, a win­dow, a house facade, a clos­et — there are a lot of options. It is cus­tom­ary when there is a block with a but­ton direct­ly on the wire that con­trols the prod­uct. But today there are oth­er options — smart gar­lands.

A smart gar­land con­trolled from a smart­phone is a great and con­ve­nient option. You can change blink­ing modes direct­ly from your phone, syn­chro­nize lights with music, set timers. It all works through appli­ca­tions — stan­dard or brand­ed, depend­ing on the prod­uct. In addi­tion, you can down­load var­i­ous col­or vari­a­tions and flick­er modes from the net­work, and for some mod­els you can even come up with your own.

Kom­so­mol­skaya Prav­da talks about the best smart gar­lands con­trolled from a smart­phone in 2022.

SNAKE (“Snake”)

A water­proof gar­land that can dec­o­rate every­thing around with mag­i­cal light — bush­es, trees, gar­den gaze­bos, porch rail­ings, bal­conies, not to men­tion indoor Christ­mas trees. The light bulbs on the device are locat­ed on short “anten­nae” and very often — it looks beau­ti­ful. The gar­land is equipped with a dim­mer — a device through which you can adjust the bright­ness of the glow.

This smart gar­land is ide­al for dec­o­rat­ing a Christ­mas tree up to 180 cm high. It includes 560 warm white LED lights. The dis­tance between the lamps is 2 cm. The length of the gar­land is 11 m, the lead wire is 3 m. A 220/31 V trans­former is includ­ed. There is also a con­troller that pro­vides 8 modes of light dynam­ics, includ­ing sta­t­ic. A timer is pro­vid­ed to reg­u­late the oper­at­ing time.

The light dynam­ics of this gar­land can also be adjust­ed from the phone. To do this, using the QR code from the box to your smart­phone, you need to down­load the instruc­tions and install the appli­ca­tion, which makes it pos­si­ble to con­trol the gar­land at a dis­tance of up to 10 meters.

How to choose a smart garland

Before pur­chas­ing the best smart­phone-con­trolled smart gar­land, you need to know more about what it is. Svet­lana Danilo­va, the man­ag­er of the pur­chas­ing depart­ment of the Tvoy Dom hyper­mar­ket chain, told the KP how to choose the best smart gar­land.

Smart gar­lands are a new gen­er­a­tion of light­ing and a must-have for those who want to live in trend. These are LED gar­lands that can be con­trolled from any gad­get — tablet or smart­phone. The gar­land can be con­fig­ured to cre­ate spe­cial effects in such a way that the lights will shim­mer in waves or repeat a pat­tern that you your­self will come up with.

Light­ing is often syn­chro­nized with music on a smart­phone. Such gar­lands are often used not only to dec­o­rate a Christ­mas tree, but also to illu­mi­nate light dec­o­ra­tions in an apart­ment. The gar­land can even be used on the facade of the house.

You need to pay atten­tion to the norms of dust and mois­ture pro­tec­tion, the num­ber of LEDs, the pow­er sup­ply, the con­troller. The num­ber of spe­cial effects also mat­ters in smart gar­lands.
