[QUOTE="George M, post: 98221, member: 28103"] Thank you, Alan. It looked over complicated to me, but I really didn't know if these strips will do full white without V drop and yellowing. For what it's worth, I was going to put some Schottky diodes on the v+ lines, and thought that might help. But honestly they won't be at full white that often anyway, so simpler is better. 72W is the spec max power on these strips, so I'll probably just go with a single 150W or 200W buck converter and see where that gets me (would I gain/lose efficiency with an oversized converter?). What "additional ground connection" were you referring to? Certainly the ground between the 2 strips is needed for data, right? Thanks again. [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/H4NCAqI.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]

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