smithzone Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I am going to order a 6804 to start playing with pixels. Any thoughts on which 'starter' pixels to get from Ray? I have a bunch of 12v power supplies already - so thinking 12v. The lights will likely be used as edging (on small sticks) around some flower beds - so not a fan of the multi-colored wire. I know the deal about contacting him to talk shipping. See any concerns with these (or are there better options): http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/100pcs-DC12V-12mm-WS2811-led-smart-pixel-node-with-all-black-wire-20AWG-IP68-rated/701799_1932863171.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmienLightFan Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Those will work with your PSUs and controller. They look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xmasjam Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (I know the deal about contacting him to talk shipping.)I have not heard about calling Ray Wu & talk to him about shipping. Does Ray work out a better price on shipping if you contact him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wbaker4 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 I just ordered 24 sets of these... http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/50pcs-DC5V-12mm-WS2811-led-smart-pixel-node-with-all-color-wire-20AWG-IP68-rated/701799_1932874154.html Worked out to be $14 per string including shipping.

Does Ray work out a better price on shipping if you contact him?Yes - if you are buying multiple counts of some items you'll notice how their shopping cart just doubles the shipping. I ordered ~150 items in one order last year and he wrote up a custom quote on shipping. You can see everyone's orders here - http://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/invoice-to-customers/701799_211491854.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzaas Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 If you send Ray an email he can send you a quote for cheaper shipping but also remember he will do custom spacing as well as wire color changes and that did not cost any extra for me.
