RGB string voltage

Recommended Posts

Not sure I want to order from China when I see stuff like this:

 

http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/led-pixel-module-WS2801-DC5V-input-IP68-50pcs-a-string-IP68/701799_529753184.html

 

Description states,"They run on 12 volt DC". Elsewhere in the listing they are listed as 6vDC, and still further...5 Volt.  Whaaa?

 

Can somebody point me to a nice bright 50 pixel smart string? 12 volt or 5 volt as long as I can be sure!

I've ordered 25 strings of these with no problems.  These are regular  pixel types style rather than the flat back ones 's you linked to and are WS2801's (three wire) rather than  2801's.

Ha ha! That's better. When you order multiple strings, how do you estimate shipping? Or us it $20 per string!?

Put together exactly what you want with links photos and prices including your mailing details and then send to Ray. He will send back a combined shipping quote which will reduce the shipping cost considerably

Always get together as much information for Ray as you can and send to him so that you can be sure of what you are ordering. A lot of the listings are using pasted information from other listings and can have errors in them.

But as long as you are specific and ask as much as you need too, then you will end up with the right things.

As Eddy says get the product name, product number, picture, etc to send. That way it is clear for you and the people on Ray's end.
