Awesome. Thank you for your response. This is exactly what I wanted to hear. So you are running what I want to build. Sorry to ask. Do you have any photos of your controller and power supply???

I have a quick question. I’m designing a 360 degree - 48 string of 100 12v -16ft- 2in spacing mega tree. I have a falcon f16v3 w 2 expansion boards. I was told from Dave from pixel controllers to connect the 48 strands directly to my controller. So that’s 100 pixels per channel.

Would I still need need to power inject and buy 4 other power supplies? Thanks for your help.

In my situation, mine is a 24 strand, 100 pixels per strand (400 per port, so 6 ports) running at 30%, on a 1200w HP psu. I also have probably another 600 pixels on that same psu as well.

I would be careful with respect to 270 degrees. Patterns would be seen thru the sides of the tree, and light density on the flanks would be maybe triple the center.
