What these mounts are designed to do

The Philips Hue Play gradient lightstrip for TV mounts is a set of black mounting brackets with 3M adhesive backing. Their purpose is to attach a Play gradient lightstrip to the back of your TV screen. The catalog describes this as an easy attachment process, but it does not include detailed step-by-step installation instructions or surface preparation guidelines. This FAQ addresses common questions about using these mounts based on the available product information.

Catalog facts about the TV mounts

Mounting and fit questions

Will these mounts work with any TV?

The catalog does not specify TV size or weight limits for these mounts. They are intended for attaching a Play gradient lightstrip to the back of a TV, but without published compatibility details, you should verify fit with your specific TV model and the lightstrip length. The mounts use adhesive, so the TV's back surface material may affect adhesion.

How do I prepare the TV surface before attaching the mounts?

The catalog does not provide surface preparation instructions. For adhesive mounts in general, a clean, dry, and smooth surface improves adhesion. Avoid textured or dusty areas. Since no specific cleaner or method is mentioned, follow general best practices and consult the lightstrip's manual for any additional guidance.

Can I reposition the mounts after sticking them on?

The catalog does not state whether the 3M adhesive allows for repositioning or removal without damage. 3M adhesive products vary in their removability. If you are unsure about placement, consider test-fitting the lightstrip before peeling the backing. The catalog does not confirm residue-free removal.

Do these mounts come with the lightstrip or are they sold separately?

This product is listed as a separate item: the mounts only. The Play gradient lightstrip is sold separately. The catalog does not indicate if any lightstrip models include mounts in the box. Check the lightstrip product page for included accessories.

What should I do if a mount loses adhesion over time?

The catalog does not provide care or replacement guidance for the adhesive. If adhesion fails, you may need to replace the mounts or use a different mounting method. The catalog does not specify whether replacement adhesive is available. Avoid using unapproved adhesives that could damage the TV or lightstrip.

Are these mounts compatible with all Play gradient lightstrip sizes?

The catalog does not list compatible lightstrip sizes. The mounts are described for use with a Play gradient lightstrip, but without size specifications, it is unclear if they fit every length. The number of mounts provided is also not stated. Check the lightstrip's specifications for mounting recommendations.

What the catalog does not settle

The supplied information covers the basic description of the mounts but leaves several practical details open: exact adhesive strength, surface compatibility, removal method, and TV size limits. If you need precise installation steps or safety guidance, refer to the official Philips Hue documentation or contact support. The mounts are a simple accessory, but proper surface preparation and placement are key to a secure hold.
