It’s August and on the winning Cheap Gadget theme, voted on by our loyal Patreons is Cheap Disco Gadgets, (including lights, sounds, etc.)

Chad’s 4th Cheap Disco Gadget is Merkury Innovations LED Matrix Pixel Night Light Display.

The Walmart page says: Connects via Bluetooth app to easily create and display animations, images, or text. Enjoy visual shows synced to your music with sound-reactive modes. Choose from a large library of eye-catching animations and use the 16×16 pixel grid to display DIY art and more Unleash your creativity with this innovative 6″ Matrix LED Display. —– That all sounds good. But when Chad went to the provided link, it came up “app not available”. Chad did a web search and found others who said there is no working app. Without the app, this is device is pretty useless as you’ll see. But, in checking the latest price a couple of days after we recorded this show, I see this on the Walmart website: IMPORTANT: New and improved app! Download MATRIX DISPLAY PLUS now from the app store with updated design and features!

So maybe they fixed it. I’ll pass this info on to Chad to see if it ‘saves’ the ‘piece of crap’ disco gadget! Chad paid about $18.00.
