[QUOTE="Plan-B, post: 125811, member: 1097"] Thank so much for the responses all. I really appreciate it. I just want to confirm that it is 15 mA per pixel and not 15 mA per RGB color = 45 mA per pixel? At 45 mA per pixel the whole 3 strip run would be at 40.5 Amps, well over the 30 Amp rating of my no-brand, Aliexpress power supply. Another question has come up. I've set up a single strip to configure and test out wLed and the NodeMcu I've installed it on. It seem to be working as intended for the most part apart from some "glitching" with the lights. Intermittently, the string seems to glitch, causing the lights to flash to full brightness and change colors briefly. I have found the higher I set the current limit parameter in wLed, the more often it does it. If I set the current limit to the default 850 mA, the strip rarely glitches. If I set it to a couple Amps or turn if off all together, it glitches constantly. Any ideas as to why this is and how to correct? Again, I want to thank you guys for your help in this matter.

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