Hi All,
I was wondering if I could get a bit more detail on how everyone mounts strips to their gutters in particular how you negotiate corners with ws2811 5m roll 30leds/m pixel strip. I have a gutter line like below
_______________
5.1m | ___________3.6m
| |
3.3m |_______|0.8m
3.5m
Option 1: Do you cut the 5m strip to fit the straight sections of the gutter and then solder on pigtails and connect each section?
Option 2: Keep the 5m length intact and bend it around the 90 degree corners and then connect 5m lengths using pigtails
Option 3: Cut the strip at the corners and solder in a short section of wire to make it more flexible around corners
Thanks in advance
