[QUOTE="Pavle, post: 119002, member: 33201"] Generally speaking, all of the pixel strings coming out of China indicate they have 18AWG wire, however real world results indicate it can be as bad as 26AWG (much smaller than it should be). In my personal experience, I use security cable for all of my additional wiring [I]6 Core 14[/I]/[I]0.20[/I] ( with 3 cores used for 0V, 2 cores for +ve and 1 core for data) and it would typically be in your best interests to use a higher gauge for all of your runs between controllers, power supplies etc. It's common to see people using 14AWG Most people here will advise you to build your system to work at 100% and there is plenty of valid reasons to support this advice. For most of us, it's probably going to be an extra power supply or two at most and with such a small investment relative to other costs in this hobby it's probably the last place you want to cheap out.

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
