MphsGal Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Obvious newbie here. Is there a way to convert these to wired for LOR? “Chips:High Power Epistar Led Chips” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 How good is your soldering? (assumes these are 12VDC and you have a CMB24 to run it) You need to open he back. Locate the controller (you are going bypass this) You need some 4 conductor ROUND (to maintain w/p) cable. You need to LEAVE the individual (R G B ) series resistors inline (the limit current AND balance the intensities) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MphsGal Posted February 16, 2020 Author Share Posted February 16, 2020 (edited) Thanks TheDucks. My soldering is good but I’m afraid you lost me after that. I mean, I understand each sentence but not how to put it all together... Is there a tutorial with pictures somewhere? Gal PS: I’ve never worked with pixels before.

There may be a YouTube for a Generic. You need to do a bit of circuit tracing. (funny, I have been doing electronics so long, I don't even think about doing tasks like this 🤔 and I forget it really is not that simple for others ) You will strip out / cut the builtin controller connections to the LED . Each LED color has a resistor. The (color) connection goes there. You also need to find where +12V goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
