[QUOTE="Baron, post: 114923, member: 34062"] Hello... I could use your help. I am trying to build out a mega tree for 2021. I am unsure about how to power this thing or how the wiring works. I am a visual person so I took my best shot at what I feel it should be. Here are my tree details: [LIST] [*]16' with a 36" star (total of 19' tall) [*]360 degree [*]48 strands of 12 volts for tree [*]270 12 volt pixels for the star topper [*]falcon f16v3 and 2 expansion boards [*]connecting all 48 strands to the controller and expansion boards (the last strand of lights will power the star) [*]running at 30% power [*]I am going to place the controller, expansion boards, and power supply(s) in ammo boxes. [/LIST] Now that I have the dirty work out of the way... here is where you come into play. [LIST=1] [*]Question 1 Power: I am wondering if I can do 1 large power supply Mean Well RSP-3000-12 or 5xMean Well LRS-350-12. I can directly connect the 3000 to my breaker for power. But if you suggest the smaller ones, great. [*]Question 2: On my diagram below, if I go with the LRS power supplies, do I connect each power supply to AC via a plug or do I connect them together somehow? If so, how???? Do you have a layout or diagram of how I do it? I am so confused. [/LIST] Thank you so much for your help. [LIST=1] [*][ATTACH type="full"]16313[/ATTACH] [/LIST] [/QUOTE]

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