A system for controlling ambient light effects comprises a receiving device including at least one processor programmed to parse incoming video content to detect at least one portion of the incoming video content and determine at least one ambient light effect to be associated with the portion of the video content. In the preferred embodiment, the LED device herein includes a heat sinkhousing containing a LED light, heat slug, and LED circuit board attached to a first side of a thermoelectric module and a heat sink on a second side of the thermoelectric module. As the primary valve is moved towards the closed position an ever increasing flow rate occurs within a secondary passageway formed in the primary valve by at least an orifice.
