Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the gaming rope outdoors?
The listing gives no waterproof rating, so use the outdoor rope outside.
Can I use the outdoor rope on a desk?
It is far longer than a desk needs, and the listing does not mention Razer Chroma sync.
Which has better smart home support?
The outdoor rope lists Matter as well as Alexa and Google Assistant.
Safety note: neon ropes run on low voltage (5V, 12V, or 24V) from a power supply, or plug into 120V in a few models. Use the supply in the kit or one that matches the rope’s voltage and wattage, keep plugs, controllers, and adapters dry, and follow the manual. Anything that connects to a household circuit should be done by a licensed electrician.
