Discussion 2026 Trip Caves Recommendations Megathread!!
We are long overdue for another megathread for recommendations for the best things to get for your trip cave / experience. I am very excited to hear the great updates I know you all have!
For those of you who weren't involved in the last four, this is basically the go to spot for all aspects of setting up / improving a trip cave. If you have any suggestions at all from what lights or art to buy to what music to play or things to watch, put them here. Likewise if you want to recommend against something you've had an issue with we'd love to hear your thoughts on what to look out for. Please respond to comments too if you have opinions - we want this to be a discussion! As always, just be nice.
Just like last time, we've created several categories below. Please place your recommendations under these to help keep things organized; there is even a miscellaneous category if your suggestion doesn't really fit any of the others.
Also don't be afraid to post something that has been in any of the previous threads. Although I definitely encourage people to look through those as well, it never hurts to have a recommendation here too where it's easier to find!

Put Blotter art on your Walls!
Hey you beautiful people! Just wanted to share for anyone still working on their trip cave, check out some blotter art! It's a great way to show off your taste. I do graffiti so I got some blotter with Banksy designs on them. They're pretty cheap especially if you get a few of them. They even have common designs you would find on active blotter, like orange sunshine or smiley faces etc. so if you remember the design of your favorite tabs, get an inactive sheet to commemorate that! Okay that is all thanks for coming to my Ted Talk (not sponsored)

Discussion Where can I buy/order a good rotating star lamp
Looking for a simple rotating star projector (slow rotation, warm golden light)
I've been searching for a star projector for my room, but almost everything I find is either a cheap-looking rebrand, has questionable reviews, or includes effects I don't want.
I'm looking for something with these requirements:
- Very slow, smooth rotation (and preferably quiet)
- NOT battery operated (plugged or chargeable)
- Projects ONLY simple dots or small stars (No nebulas, galaxies, lasers, moving clouds, etc)
- Warm golden/yellow light (bonus if it can switch to blue or other colors)
I don't mind spending more if the quality is actually worth it. I've also noticed there are dozens of seemingly identical projectors sold under different brand names at wildly different prices, so I'm not sure which one is the original or the best value.
Does anyone know of a projector that fits these requirements, or know who actually manufactures the good versions of these products?
Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Is it normal for it to look good on camera but in person it looks dim?
Is this normal? Iām a tad disappointed color wise it looks dim. But that could also be the angle I have it on. I have the goove galaxy pro projector 2 with popoco. I like them but I wished it was like in the photos of color vibrancy. Any help or should I return pro projector 2 and find another one that is as bright as the pictures? Or put the projector higher?

Absolutely thrilled with the new colour disks for my DarkSkys FX-Zoom. Second shot has additional red light from my other galaxy projector.
