Nanoleaf Expo Case Review: Funny LED boxes for sneakers and collecting items

Julie Clover

If you have a collection that you want to demonstrate, whether it is high-quality sneakers, expensive collectible vinyl figures or something else you want to attract attention, it is worth checking at Nanoleaf Smart LEAD CASE. They are estimated at $ 270 for four out of four, with additional cases of extension available for $ 63. They are rectangular, with white plastic sides and transparent plastic in front and back. The front panel opens so that objects can be placed inside. They are only less than 15 inches in length, 11.4 inches and a growth of 8.7 inch. Internal measurements are slightly smaller, so you have a height of about 7.5 inches. The height was the most limiting factor in my testing, since higher collectible objects are not suitable inside. For shoes for which these covers are definitely intended, you can fit to the sneakers of size 15. Nanoleaf has a guide on which other types of things are suitable inside, but there is no mention of the weight limit. Most of the collection items that will be suitable are not very difficult, and the cases are strong, so the weight will probably not be a problem for most people. The pieces go together only in one direction, and it was not very difficult to gather them together, but it took me good half an hour to configure four of them. I found that they would be somewhat disappointing, because it requires more strength than you might think to make them click.

After the meeting, they feel strong, although they are made of plastic. They do not look or feel cheap, but it is clear that they are plastic, not other material. Nanolif makes only exhibitions in white, and this does not correspond to some aesthetics. I suspect that there are many collectors who can prefer black, but White works well to allocate objects inside. In any case, the assembly stores what is inside the dust, but Nanolif does not mention the protection against ultraviolet radiation, so I assume that this is not included. There is a main box of the controller that provides power, and that the power adapter is connected, and the rest of the boxes are connected to it. Nanolif designed them to configure everyone in one row or composed, so you can make several different designs. There is no equipment for installation on the wall, so they are designed to go to the floor or on the surface, as on a table or shelf.

The controller box has a set of sensory controls for changing color and brightness without application, and I hate them. They use activation when touching instead of physical buttons. The buttons are too sensitive, and if you even clean them, they activate. They also somewhat irritate actions such as resetting the exhibition. I would prefer standard physical buttons. In the upper part of each box there is a digression in which the base of the second box is for safe planting, but there is no clamp or other mechanism that holds them in place, except for surface area and retreats. I wanted to have the opportunity to put the Lego, which I have at the top of cases, but depression would be made for an unstable surface, which should be borne in mind if you want to have something at the top. I added a little craft foam to have a flat surface, and this ultimately worked well.

I have seven cases to fit through my bookcase, but up to 300 can be connected together. After you have more than eight cases, you need a 75 W power supply from Nanoleaf, which, I think, is sold separately because the basic sets are supplied with a 42 watts power source. Gratitude 75 W supports 14 cases, therefore, if you switch to this number, you will need two or more power sources. Please note that although 300 can be connected, Nanoleaf says that you should add them only 16 with a high vertical one. There are no restrictions in horizontal orientation.

Expo cases are connected to the Nanoleaf application and with Homekit support, so you can access them in the Home application and control them using Siri. The flow is also enabled to improve connection. Like other products for nanolist, they can be installed on more than 16 million colors, with various patterns and light sequences that are available in the appendix. I like the Nanoleaf application, and I think that the company has done a good job, allowing you to easily get a number of different scenes and color options for its products with little effort. With public scenes, you can download a lot of really excellent combinations of color/drawings created by others, and the magical scene of AI allows you to insert any phrase so that II came up with something. It is possible to create a playlist to conduct an Expo Case cycle through the scenes, and there is an option of rhythm that allows the selected colors to switch in time with the music that plays. You can also connect them to the PC or Mac settings with other nanole lamps using a desktop application for a nanolist.

There are several shades of white in addition to color, which, I think, is important for the exhibition. Depending on what you have inside, some of the deeper colors and animations can complicate the contents. If I demonstrate collecting items, I usually love them, so I install exhibitions to lighter colors and shades of white (from 1200 thousand to 6500 thousand). Deep colors look good with sneakers or simpler objects, and the backlight definitely attracts attention. Nanolif says that they are every 50 lumen, and I usually have them in half the brightness or lower.

I do not want to conduct a nanoleal review, not turning to the connection and service of customers, two areas, where the nanolif has historically fought. More products with nanole products may have problems, and I had controllers on Aurora and Canvas panels. New products with stream support are apparently more reliable, and I checked the cases of the exhibition since August last year, when there is only one tendency to connect during the configuration. Since then, they have not disconnected from Wi-Fi, and the nanolis windows that I created since last year were also stable. My only recent problem was with Sense+ Switch periodically disconnecting, but this was in order for a couple of months. They mistakenly sent me the case of the controller instead of the case of expansion, so I contacted support as a regular client. I quickly received an answer and received a replacement. I saw how nanolent support was more active in various social channels, such as Reddit recently, so I think they are trying to improve. I hope that new products will have a longer service life than some of the older devices with fewer connection problems, but time will tell. Collections take into account shape and size, but they work well for any small collecting. They are connected to other nanole lights and create an excellent desktop accessory, a room decoration or a source of the surrounding light. I didn’t like physical buttons, and I would like those who do not like white to have more color options, but in general, this is a unique product that matters to collectors. From the Nanoleaf website or from Amazon for $ 270, which includes a set of four cases. Additional cases are available for $ 63. There was no other compensation
