[QUOTE="Permapower, post: 104605, member: 29540"] Hi there, Has anyone created a mega tree that just used a single Raspberry Pi + Falcon-PiCap before as it's pixel controller? I was thinking of using a [URL='https://www.pixelcontroller.com/store/index.php?id_product=47&controller=product']Falcon PiCap[/URL] and it states on its website that it can control two strings 800+ WS2811 pixels with fused and buffered outputs. I found this [URL='https://www.lightshowhub.com/tools/mega-tree-calculator?nm=My%20Mega%20Tree&ph=160&pb=40&td=10&bmt=bottomDiameter&bd=65&wr=0.5&ns=15&ip=true&mapp=60&mapi=3.4&ma=60&cu=50&lct=lightSpacing&ls=3&lcps=50&ts=7&bs=2&v=5&w=350&pm=80&bcl=rgb(255%2C%20255%2C%20255)&pcl=rgb(0%2C%20153%2C%20255)&ecl=rgb(221%2C%200%2C%200)&evcl=rgb(0%2C%20153%2C%200)&scl=rgba(255%2C%20153%2C%200)&secl=rgb(255%2C%20190%2C%200)&ant=ramp_rainbow']Mega Tree Calculator[/URL] and I am able to produce a 400cm high tree. I am aware that I will need to do power injection etc. however, I just wanted to know if my idea is at all possible or not. Also, any ideas/feedback for this newby is most welcome. Thank you [/QUOTE]

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