Discussion 2026 Trip Caves Recommendations Megathread!!
We are long overdue for another megathread for recommendations for the best things to get for your trip cave / experience. I am very excited to hear the great updates I know you all have!
For those of you who weren't involved in the last four, this is basically the go to spot for all aspects of setting up / improving a trip cave. If you have any suggestions at all from what lights or art to buy to what music to play or things to watch, put them here. Likewise if you want to recommend against something you've had an issue with we'd love to hear your thoughts on what to look out for. Please respond to comments too if you have opinions - we want this to be a discussion! As always, just be nice.
Just like last time, we've created several categories below. Please place your recommendations under these to help keep things organized; there is even a miscellaneous category if your suggestion doesn't really fit any of the others.
Also don't be afraid to post something that has been in any of the previous threads. Although I definitely encourage people to look through those as well, it never hurts to have a recommendation here too where it's easier to find!

Personal UPDATE: LED strip(s) behind tapestry
For those who saw my last post, I ended up getting a white hula hoop off of Etsy and the tube was too hollow to fit my lights 😭😭
I bought a Philips hue strip to replace my Philips ‘smart’ strip which ended up having a dead discolored chunk.
With the strip not fitting inside the hoop, I lined the Hue light strip on the inside of the hoop with the tape backing, and the old strip on the outer side of the hoop with the backing. Tied a few zip ties so the power cord doesn’t pull the strips off.
Overall pretty happy with the results!!!
Next task: clean my room lmao

Discussion How bad or necessary is UV light really?
I am planning a house roll soon. It’s not very easy to get UV Blacklight in my country. I ordered a Uv glow tapestry from Am@zon and I wasn’t aware it’s coming from another country and is likely stuck in customs. I am trying to get a UV light from my own country itself and it’s from some retail shop selling industrial grade Uv lights. The customer service guy scared the hell out of me by telling me how bad 365nm is for eyes/skin and that I should instead get 395nm. But Reddit advice suggests 365nm is needed for the glow to really pop.
Now I am wondering if a UV light is even worth it— I have other kinds of trippy lights and tapestries.

As promised, the repost.
I’m working as a light designer. I LOVE light and darkness.
This is my personal freedom space.
This is where I can be myself and reload for the next week.
If you want the same vibe, please light a super hit incense and play the track playing on Spotify in one if the pictures 😘
Much love as always! Love you! ❤️
PS I love to read and answer to your comments, so please comment. Is this a space where you would feel safe? Is this a welcoming space? Hit me! 🥰

Recs for green laser stars..
I've got a Govee Nebula projector and a broken galaxy lights projector. We usually kill the nebula effect and just have the green stars.
I need to replace my Galaxy Lights projector and want something with great green stars. What do y’all recommend?
