Can LOR Square Pixels be connected?

I see the Pixie controllers can control 100 lights, but the pixels LOR sells are in 50 pixel strings. Can these be connected to form 100 pixels for use with a Pixie controller?

Thanks!

from what I've read, the 5v pixels are only good up to 50 pixels per channel, the 12v are good up to 100 pixels so say.  not sure if you can add to the 5v 50 pixel string and it would work or not, trying to find some information on the strings them selves

Thanks for the reply. I'm curious if LOR will sell 12v 100 pixel strings next year, as they seem readily available through other vendors.

I have 288 5v pixels connected together. They work fine.

In either case, the issue is voltage drop.  Power injection solves the problem.
