Review on 🌈 RGBZONE DC5-24V Mini 21 Key RF Remote Controller for WS2811 WS2812B LED Dream Color Strip Light - Effortless Remote Control for Dynamic LED Lighting by Jhansi Thomas

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good price but no control 1024 pixels (according to current item description)

Christmas! As someone just getting into pixel lighting and having done some decent research (and purchases) on what it takes to run one of the programmable home light shows, I thought I'd give it a shot. At the moment it's mostly running the show, but in the future I intend to use it for testing pixel bars/lines. So far I'm satisfied. The remote control is good and the controller works as expected. I'm using 5V pixel strips and nodes (WS2812B) and was able to get 250-300 pixels with power applied. Here I encountered a problem. According to the current description, this should work with 1024 pixels. However, I suspect it's closer to 1024 channels. So while it will work for my future pixel test plans, it failed to run some pixel strips that I wanted to use for my show this year. Overall I'm still satisfied. It's fun to manipulate a few hundred pixels of light. The "downside" is that I need to set up my real controller and start sequencing this year. At least that was the goal. Let the fun begin =)

Pros
  • Well done
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
