Review on πŸŽ‰ 50pcs EOOCVT Digital WS2811 LED Pixel String Lights 12mm RGB Full Color Changing Christmas Wedding Party Holiday Decorative Addressable LED Lights DC5v by Joey Richardson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm using them for a custom Christmas lighting project

I'm using them to light up the Christmas village in my living room. The lights are individually addressable and change color, but you will need a 5V power supply and a controller. I'm using this 30W power supply (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07145RSLS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00) and an Arduino Uno with the FastLED library available on Github. The idea was that the lights in the houses would randomly turn on and off from time to time to simulate activity and some LEDs would look like flickering lights. Everything just fell into place. With the Uno, I can run up to 25 LEDs that flash independently before the flicker rate slows noticeably. The only issue I had was that the spacing between the LEDs was only about four inches, which was cumbersome, but there were no issues operating it. These lights are good quality and great value.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • So far so good
