[QUOTE="Derf, post: 98241, member: 25734"] How is your battery going to be recharged? and what type of battery are you using? I would be mindful of the voltage that could possibly hit your controller and strip and implement a regulator or something of the like to keep the voltage at the controller end @12v +/- 0.1v if you are to keep that setup. I would suggest placing the buck converter before the controller and running the controller @5v then plug your strip directly into the controller. 12-14.1v Battery -> Buck Converter (12V to 5V) -> Controller (5v) -> LED Strip (5v Powered by controller) Just ensure your Buck can handle the maximum voltage that could possibly going into it (E.g if you are charging from an alternator or solar panel).

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