Hi guys.
I know these get asked a lot but I am having difficulty and could use some advice.
I didn't have any power injection tees on hand so for testing purposes I thought I would make one.
I am using 5v seed pixels and I used 2 female and one male connector to diy a tee.
My led strings both light up well when directly connected together and Function as expected.
I carried the yellow data wire and v-(blue) through as I am using 2 different power supplies and I read it was best not to connect the v+(brown) so I cut it at the power injection point.
Does that look correct? Because it doesn't behave as it should.
From the second controller only the brown and blue wires are connected.
Have double checked all the wiring but it just isn't working the same as when connected directly.
Have I failed to understand something?
