Not really having any experience other than my existing meanwells, do you have any recommendations on the type I should be searching for? I did a search and I’m not really sure what I’m looking for, or the size of the unit for the bald Rick?

The Baldrick 17 has 4 X 30 amps plus 1 10 amp input. I am using 12 volt seeds 540 seeds per output at 30% brightness. I’m just wondering how best to power it up. The power supply will be under cover externally. Some questions/thoughts Should I get a a big power supply or multiple small...

Thanks to the team at the zoom room, this has been fixed. It was a problem with my network set up.

Thanks Dom. Will try that

No there is nothing unique. I will check the network later this week when work allows me. Can I just plug the board into the router, or do I need to go through the switch? It’s connected to the switch, but thinking about eliminating a potential failure point to try and track down what the...

For the railings, cable ties are your friend.

Depending on your desire to screw into the corrugated iron, you could get some tek screws in the same colour as the iron and just screw in a bracket. That way it would be permanent and be available each year. Otherwise you could look at unscrewing one of the existing screws and inserting a...

That’s through the switch. It must be something with my setup as I plugged in another board and got a different ip address but it still hangs at initialising. I have tried resetting the board (hold down button 3 while powering on) and still no progress. Tried different browser as well.

Hi I have a Baldrick 8 and am trying to set it up. I have connected to it and it has an IP address, but when it starts the software update it is stuck at initialising and wont go furher. While I can access the ip address through a browser, thats ll I can do. I have the IP address in Xlights...

It’s a baldrick 8 but never used yet

actually I have a baldrick board. Would that be able to be used with more than 400 seeds per port?

So 8n your experience 400 seeds is fine? I would prefer not to power inject either if I can get away with it? With a falcon f16 that would give me 16x 400 =6400 pixels

I got my seeds from light it up leds but they are closed down now.. I don’t really understand the swapping around of primary and backup lines. If that was the case shouldn’t I wire up the primary and backup together?

First year using seed lights (4 wire 12 volt) and I’m just after some advice on the easiest way of connecting them to a falcon f16 controller. Is it best just to connect them using xconnect pigtails and solder them directly to the seeds or is there an easier way that others use? I think that I...
