ITS SEPTEMBER ALREADY???? Lets see... finish soldering xConnect onto the pixels that came with RST plugs Push 3 more arches and a candy cane Buy longer xConnect to finish my controller box Get the new FPP up and running Figure out if i bother buying a singing tree this year, or make it 12v next...

Is this generative AI...

EESH!! ...I'll just suck up the $20 for a new set of long pigtails. (I need an excuse to buy more pixels anyway)

actually, I just checked, due to the staggered holes on the side, it wouldn't work anyway. I'll just buy some longer pigtails...

...Oh. Thanks! Do you think the 'Original Baldrick Mount' would work on this? https://www.baldrickboard.com/en/fun-stuff/stls-and-mounts Or this with the same board footprint? https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5868398

My cheap butt thought it would be better to get the shorter pigtails, which I just found don't reach to the far ports of the controller. Its currently laid out down the length of the box, so some ports are closer than others, but I was wondering if there was any way to mount the baldrick ontop...

Hey all. I have an 'S-200-5' PSU in my Baldrick 8 kit from Hanson Electronics, and I'm looking for better ways to mount the board. My pigtails don't quite reach the far ports from where it came, so I'm thinking... How unsafe would it be to chuck a few screws in the holes in the enclosure? Or...

yeah, I just use it for checking IPs

Can it run on a Pi 4B / B+? And is xScanner leaving as well? Will it be maintained separately?

I'm not power injecting yet, seeing if I can make this year without it. I will probably end up needing to, but trying to simplify for this year.

Thank you!

Okay... Did some testing, and the results are in: - Can run approx. 75 pixels at 40% brightness before they start to yellow 😬 - The PSU seems to hold up with a few ports. So I'm wondering if some of these could work instead? The single row says 50px. I do like these, might print a few...

Thanks!

Thank you! We're a little worried about theft or damage, so might not have that many props low. The floods are a great idea, we were already planning on getting some for the static lights. And is it possible to run all of this off of the 200w psu I already have? Im a little worried about...
