Quoted from bigd1979:So if I wanna use these in tz backbox u think I will I be able to sync the 2 strips to fade the same color
At the same time?
Synchronizing them might be tough....possible, but not guaranteed...
If the affects are similar, it may or may not make you happy.
At this time because of the flood of emails, I released, before I have had the chance to try out many of the unique
solutions, but Ill try this in my TZ this weekend...That I can do!
Quoted from Schwaggs:For the RGB strips, I'm not clear on the setup options. From your site:
5 brightness options
20 colors
Special fade and blink effects (I assume this sets the transition between colors when set to RGB)
Can I set them to be one of the 20 colors and not cycle through all the colors?
If I set the strip to a single color, will these work powered by inserts that may flash on and off? In other words do they light up instantly with the controller in the path or is there a delay?
Is there a connector between the controller and LEDs or are those soldered joints?
For the modders of mods, how many LEDs can the controller handle? For example, if I wanted to solder on a second strip of RGB LEDs to a single controller so the colors would be synced, how many LEDs can it handle, total?
The special effects seem to combo using 2 buttons.
Is your question, Can you set one color to fade in and out, or blink at different speeds?
They will respond to the power from an insert and light. As far as a delay, ever so so slight. Only the keenest eyes, may see the time it takes electric to travel. If you have it set to an effect, it will need to stay lit long enough
to trigger the internal cycling. It wont hold an on signal with any form of time delay or control.
If I am not describing well, I hope to have videos up very soon.
There is a 4 pin connector between the controller and the 4 leads, right below the black,
It is recommended when you have in the position you want, if you dont think you will be moving it, to add a small piece of tape to secure. This also allows creative theading and application.
I heard from a proto tester that had a couple strips, that they enjoy setting the strip outside the application via coin door, and then installing.
Good Question, and I dont know the exact answer. This mini controller is sold with a full roll of RGb on the net, so I imagine it can handle a reasonable length. However that is 12V, and this runs on 6.3V, so I hope over time, a better answer from users will come.
