personally id sometimes call it luck of the draw ... i have avg priced from a some what known supplier from amazon which been on the roof through snowy winters & NZ UV sun for the last four or fives years without removing them NOT ONE FAIL 10k of the cheapest wouldn't touch with a barge pole...

https://www.thingiverse.com/Greenfieldaddy/designs just about any 3D print site has props or something to do with xlights ... just search a site a site like thingiverse for xlights there is heaps best advise make pixel holes a touch smaller and maybe add an extra wall then drill the hole to size

was always told by my farther buy a little bigger than you need this way you wont stress/overload it and time it'll last longer for this reason for the small price difference (if looking around) i went with 30W because i can always turn them down

is this one powering the street O_O🤣

nah it's completely and pretty much like blue tack on steroids brushed stainless steel i never gone near you'd be on your own to test if its brushed sorry

i have know ideal why someone in this household brought lol if it was by mistake or not it would have to be the worst stuff I've ever played with BUT if you want to make something stick and never move its your friend TRY THIS it not your normal double sided tape !! about 3/4mm thick and as...

my thought at the time it was clean & simple, plug it in and walk away every strip is made in the same manner so it doesn't matter which order you use the strips unlike my last tree which didn't use alternate nodes

this is pretty much my Megatree to a tee ... F16 v5 / 2x mean well / 5v pixels (NO power injection) but is power balanced was wired with "Alternate Nodes" to bring all joints back to the bottom for ease was done as 30 strings so i could leave the last port for the topper of another 300 pixels

whoops i knew it'd be something simple, which makes since on nights of less voting its stop early Cheers

running FPP 9.4 with a scheduled playlist to start at 8:30 and end at 11:30 this had run floorless with remote falcon on jukebox "before" adding a outro to the playlist now that I've added an outro song on the main playlist the schedule will just randomly stop anywhere 15 to 20 mins before...

i really wondered about going down the road of a form of "led strip joiners" once i know were all trying to keep water out but the thought was this would be much faster & easier and then give you something to work with then maybe resin the joint

best way i found was to leave them sitting around for a couple of years and not use them 😂 you need to waste a pixel at each end cutting the wire hard up to that pixel your going to waste in turn giving you the longest length of wire possible i would VERY strongly recommend soldering holder...

i spent what felt like a life time one year wondering and checking and double checking why one prop just didn't look or work right as it happens it was the last prop on that port and the prop before it had the wrong number of pixels entered 😕 worth a check

you could try put it through MP3Gain which may clean the file up ... i put all audio file through this to level the sound the same across all nothing worse than thinking you've set the volume spot to only find you have a really loud mp3
