kj11856 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I have a pixie 16 running 32 pixel strips on a mega tree. Problem is I accidently bought 5v pixels. I had 12v lights last year and replaced them with the 5v pixels. They are all staying on white. I read that the 5v will work with a pixie 16 but cannot find where to change the voltage on the board. I have also checked the wiring to the pixels. anyone have any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are lucky, you survived applying 12V to 5V stings (but no breath holding) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
