AndrewB Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) The page for the 12V Green Bulbs 50 Count With End Connector (http://store.lightorama.com/12vgrbu50cow.html) says each string runs at 15W (therefore drawing 1.25A). The Pixcon16 Datasheet state that current maximum is 4 amps per output port 32 amps total for ports 1-8 32 amps total for ports 9-16 64 amps for entire board Is the maximum number of end-to-end strings of 12V 50ct. bulbs therefore 3 strings (3.75A/port) per output port of the Pixcon16, for a total of 48 strings (60A/Pixcon16)? Thank you. Edited December 3, 2019 by AndrewB Corrected 50W to 15W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianfox Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Those strings are 15W, not 50W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewB Posted December 3, 2019 Author Share Posted December 3, 2019 Sorry for the typo, yes 15W per string. However, the rest of the numbers and the question still stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 It is a Numbers game. You can max out any single port as long as you don't max out the bus. 64A simply advertising hype. the real MAX numbers are 32A per bus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
