Yet Another Newbie Hoping To Get Advice on Starting Out

[fasteddy]

create a spredsheet with the parts, total parts wanted and link to the page where the parts are so there is no confusion. (copy and paste the parts description from the webpage)

Email this to Ray and he will then return with a pro-forma with combined shipping. You can also go into the chat with Ray and then send the file to him through the aliexpress chat, that way you know he has recieved it.

Then you pay via his paypal account

and hopefully it will turn up a week or 2 later (depending on what you order)

Can't wait to get home from work and do up a spreadsheet from Ray ... The info and assistance I have received from ACL has thus far made my initial steps into this great hobby rather painless !!!! ... Looking forward to testing things out to see what things I can incorporate into my ideas I have ... Thanks ALL !!!

If you decide to cut/join the strips, other members here have recommended getting the following:

I have not used these and can't speak for them but they will be in my next order. Don't attach the strip to a controller/tester while it is running.

I have used these and they're great if you have a tube of silicone. I was able to ask Ray for a smaller quantity than 500.
