I am considering purchasing the mattos evo pixels for use in my matrix's and mega trees. Since they are so new, i was wondering if anyone has any videos of them in action, specifically in a matrix?

Thanks,
Tim

Biggest thing to note with EVOs VS Bullet nodes is the light diffusion.
EVOs are like a clear epoxy seed pixel inside a cylindrical resin, which makes a point of light. The whole cylinder glows still. It's not as diffused as a bullet node.

There was a post a few weeks ago on the Facebook Official xLights Support Group showing an EVO pixel matrix.
That looked good!

Regarding the mega tree strips in the background, with them being just a pressure fit, do they stay held in pretty good? I will search the fb page for the matrix.

Thanks!

Yes, they fit into the Boscoyo mounting strip fine.
I don't have any other brand of mounting strip to test on.
