Description

# Context

The overhead lights in the room I'm working in are lame.
We bought them from `Leroy Merlin` in the hopes that they would be decent, 🤞
but they emit a high-pitched whine that makes them unusable. 🔔 😢
Basically I can only use the lights while wearing noise-cancelling headphones... 🙉
The noise is especially painful to our 👶 who cries whenever they are in the room!!

# Todo

Research what `LED`s will work with video recording so that I can light the green wall.

I tried 12 light strips and found a hidden gem: https://youtu.be/L3YSRLl31Rg [**`7 mins`**]

Sadly, very US-focussed. None of the Amazon links are available in EU. 🤦‍♂️
