First please excuse my drawing skills. I have purchased (although not the exact one), some of these

Clearly I am missing a fundamental wiring step. My thoughts was to run them like plasma-cicles. I want to use them to light up tombstones for Halloween. I know I should have build prior to now to work out the kinks but i thought I understood the theory behind it.
I am using 18 g speaker wire to make the connections. The first one works and the ones down the chain flake out. Is it possible that the chip is not strong enough to regenerate the signal (about 8 feet between each one)?
I tried driving it off a $3 2811 tester like and off of my controller for the Holiday Coro Pixel tree.

If the signal is too low when regenerated, could a null pixel directly attached to the ring output help?
