They said that it couldn't be done. But we looked at the specifications and pinouts and noticed ... well, yeah, it actually
can
be done! So ... we played with it a bit, got some devices and built a prototype. And it worked like a charm! And, happily enough, no Lighting Node Pros were harmed while prototyping this adapter!
We started with a limited run way back in November, 2019 and it sold out in no time. Since then, we've sold over 8,000 of these to customers around the world and opened up a world of possibilities with system RGB. So don't be fooled by the copy cats out there - some of whom
even bought our adapters
before copying them - PirateDog Tech is the original and we have more experience than any other seller.
Want to control your Asus Aura and MSI Mystic Light ARGB devices with Corsair's iCue? This adapter converts your Corsair RGB Lighting Channel (such as on a Lighting Node Pro or a Commander Pro) to the Addressable/Digital RGB connector that most motherboards now use. The result? You can now control the wide array of ARGB devices that connect to "standard" motherboard ARGB connections right along with your Corsair RGB devices! This includes products that have controllers that will connect to the motherboard, like many cases (Phanteks and Lian Li 011 variants, for example) and other devices (Lian Li Strimer Plus, ThermalTake TT Sync, EK D-RGB and many, many more). If you have more than one device, you can use our
Corsair RGB Lighting Channel Splitter
to use multiple adapters with a single Lighting Channel or combine this adapter with our
powered A-RGB Hub
.
Now, with great power comes great responsibility. There are a couple of things that we need to tell you before you go click "Buy Now".
1) This adapter only works with a
Lighting Node Pro
or
Commander Pro
. It will not work directly with an
RGB Fan LED Hub
or
Lighting Node Core
. To use with either of these devices, you can use the
Corsair Fan Hub to Strip/Lighting Channel
adapter or use the
4-pin (fan hub) version of this adapter
. It will not work with the
Commander Core.
2) If your device does not have its own power source, you need to make sure that the current draw on a single Corsair Lighting Channel is limited to approximately 2A (10W). This will come out to roughly 60 RGB LEDs. However you may need to check the specifications of any LEDs that you connect. If you exceed the limit, you may blow a fuse in your Lighting Channel.
3) You'll have to configure your devices in iCue based on the number of LEDs. You can choose from HD (12 LEDs), LL (16 LEDs), ML (4 LEDs), SP-PRO (8 LEDs), QL (34 LEDs) fans or RGB Strips (10 LEDs). Do not configure them as SP-RGB fans! You'll need to count the number of LEDs on your devices and then configure the lighting channel to have the same (or slightly greater) number of LEDs. Example: 1 Phanteks Aura-compatible ARGB Strip has 30 LEDs. This is then configured in iCue as 3 RGB Strips (30 LEDs). It could also be configured as 3 HD Fans (36 LEDs) or 2 LL fans (32 LEDs). Experimenting with the setup can lead to some interesting effects. We do include a "cheat sheet" with every adapter to help you configure your channel.
4) This will not allow you to control your motherboard or GPU LEDs. Those aren't controlled by connecting wires. This will only control 5V Addressable RGB LEDs.
5) This will not allow you to control 12V (4-pin) analog LEDs. They operate on a different protocol and are incompatible. You can use the Solarity Tech ArrRGB DAC to control 12V (4-pin) analog LEDs.
Looking to connect Corsair's HydroX Custom liquid cooling to your motherboard? Then you need the
Aura/Mystic Light to Corsair Adapter
. This adapter won't work for that.
