Re: Sydney Mini 2015 booked in for 23-24th of May please let me know if your coming

Hey guys,
I have a request:
Can someone/anyone please bring a strip of 12v 2811 30/10IC p/m & 12v 2811 60/20IC p/m i am really needing to decide which way to go, everyone says just to go the 30/10IC but i fear because i used 60 LED p/m dumb RGB strips in last years show i might not get the same feel/brightness i had,
At least if i can see the 2 together it may help me decide easier, or decide to use 30/10 for some and the 60/20 for others,
Thanks in advance, really looking forward to this, not long now...

Even though it only has 10ic each section has 3 RGB LEDs running off the one chip. The module I use in my stars and candy canes have the same spacing. A module is basically cut up strip. Trust me they will be plenty bright and you will have no complaints. Honestly I think your worrying about it too much.

And the money you save you can buy more tubes LOL

I use 12v 2811 30/10IC p/m in my roof outline and in my Megatree and they are plenty bright enough. In fact, between shows when the lights are doing the more static part of the display, I have to set the strip on the megatree to 30% so it doesnt burn out people's retinas, its so bright. Not to mention the fact that the neighbours get lit up like.... well..... christmas trees.

I have only used the 30 LEDs/m for my lighting and will agree with the others that anything more is hard to justify. Remember that you need to manage all those extra channels and voltage drop, so you need to weigh up if its worth going to the extra effort and cost needed to use 60 LEDs/m which will be a considerable difference (twice the power supplies/cabling/cost of strip/controllers)

Im not sure if you are trying to be seen from space, if that being the case then go for the 60 or even the 120 LED/m :D

I'll be bringing something. Not a door prize but something you put in your mouth. I asked my wife to make double cause she is going to a baby shower so it's bound to be full of sugar.
