Hi guys I have a spinner with strip for the arms which runs on 5 volt and also some 12 volt square pixels in the middle which run from 12 volts. Is it possible to run both from the same PS?
Lucky I checked my strip after you guys asked for how much current it uses, as I now realise it is in fact 12 volt strip so I won't need the converter after all. Good to know for the future though. Thanks for your responses
PC power supply has 12v, 5v and 3.3v. Use a meter to find your outputs on the molex plugs. On the 20/24 pin connector, cut the green wire right at the plug and ANY black wire. Put a switch between those two wires (the green and the black). There... now you have a 12 & 5 volt power supply with a power switch!
