i did run 125 pixel per port at 100 % for few night as it was user error (on my part ) until half tree die (blow the power supply and few wire lol ...

Perfect that’s exactly what I wanted to see! I also want to have a pixel in the corner, thanks so much! My other window is a bow window so I was...

I use Boscoyo’s ChromaTrim. This is a picture of two of my corners. I don’t think I had any issues getting things where I wanted them. I...

I will check it out. What OS did you install it on? An up to date Windows 10 should have 4.8 by default.

Thanks everyone! -shelby

I just printed 3 at a time. See pic. I have done 4. The problem with printing multiple, is if something goes wrong, all of them are ruined. I was...

Happy Birthday Shelby! Thanks for all your help

I wrote out a technical response of using MQTT and a pi and a WiFi module but then realized that the OP said they were not that technical. ...

I've compromised down to 60% as the mathematical magic number I need to hit to make it work :) That breaks down to 32 strings of 50 lights put into...

I expect that will be a very very bright tree, if 100% on. You may want to tell the controller to limit the brightness to 50%. I know my E682...

Note to Devs: When I did the install, everything seemed fine and it installed .NET just fine. Then when I ran it after restart, it demanded .NET...

imo, 100% power injection. no v+ from the controller at all. dont care what intensity you use.

save your files first or there is no going back. i had no issues with the install or the new version.

I'm bringing in 3.7 now. is there anything I should be wary of, updating from 3.4?

Having a birthday over here as well? Wow! Happy Birthday, Shelby. Many more!

That PAR light is a LED RGB Light. The good news is, you can treat each light as a pixel. If you are used to using smart pixels on a string,...

That cap looks good from Arrow. You know, resistors for LEDs are a funny thing. You should always check the dropping resistor against the one you...

You're completely right (of course). I got the C2 part from the Pops O'Matic in my head (also 10V and 220uF) and completely missed the size...

Thank you Bob for providing these pixel-leds so I could get an early jump on testing . These are great for building custom props and pcb related...

you know, back a couple yrs ago when no one had any spare pixlepops PCB's I ordered some, and when I got them they were a thin PCB almost half the...

It is usually safe to go up a few volts (not hundreds) on a capacitor. It is rarely safe to go down even a few volts.

Many thanks to @ukewarrior for offering me 8 PixelPop Tiny's and 2 PixelPop Regular's really cheap! To save others the work of piecing together...

I did. Give me a few days to get them packaged up for you.

Thanks a lot for posting this. What has been your typical print time? Is there a way to print several in one run with a support mat?

Scott, You need to also pay attention to the spacing of the leads on the cap. If you read the wiki, It states 5mm or less with a lead spacing of...

Hey Hey Hey Shelby. One year older dude! Enjoy your day.
