Thanks for the video of the fans... I have no doubt, I like the look of the light. But the fans still worries me. I realise now that there need to be some reference noise in the video, to have a chance to compare how much noise the fans make. Without reference (in the same video) it is not possible.
The best people have right now is your statement: "like good laptop fans"....
The problem is that it is not possible to adjust the speaker volume the replicate the IRL fan noise volume.
So if I could be so humble to ask you to make another video with some reference sound in it, then you get the very best review of the Chihiros VIVID RBG out there so far. Which also is spectacular few!
This could be done like this:
Distance to the VIVID RBG in the previous video is good, but maybe you could close in on the light in the end, with the last reference sound continuing.
The reference sounds need to be generated at same distance to the camera. (Just next to the light!)
The reference sounds must be at a fixed volume, and something people know the volume of. The more different ref. sounds the better.
Example of reference sounds:
A person side by side with the aquarium turning on a lighter for some time.
Then grabs a pen and clicking on the top for some time,
Then browsing through a newspaper
The person could also say: I will now whisper at a volume where the camera man/woman can barely pick up the words, then speak "normal", then speak out loud.
The person could clap, all the way from not able to hear it, and to full power and sour hands!!!
Turn on and off an air pump with bubbles popping in the aquarium. (a noise many can relate to)
The more the better, as long as the reference noise is something people kind of know the volume of, to compare volume of the fans.
I know it is a lot to ask for, but I am sure this is the only way for people to get something out of a video "showing" the fan noise. Sorry but I only realised this after watching your video.
It is the same issue with the video with noise from the G3. There is nothing to compare, you can only tell the noise is at a different frekvens. There could have been a little to compare if the G3 noise was filmed at the same distance from the source of noise, as with the VIVID.... but still different phone, different setting and so on.
Both videos I can play full power through my speaker and have everybody in the building running down with complains!!
Thanks, I would really appreciate it, and I am sure a lot of others would too.
