Hello,
First time poster and another noob. I'm looking to get started with this hobby/obsession for Christmas 2016. I'm settled to start with a house outline using WS2811 LED strips. My question is should I go with 30 or 60 LED per meter 5M rolls? Viewing distance will be roughly 20 to 50 ft from my house. I've read some blog posts that suggest a human eye's resolution would not be able to notice the difference and I should simply go with 30 LEDs per meter, but will the over all brightness be better if I up it to 60 per meter? What are the opinions out there and what other considerations am I not thinking of?
Thanks,
Jim
