Brian1972 Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 does anyone know the type of chip that was on the ribbon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orville Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 (edited) Too bad you're in Canda, saw your other post about the CCR's, and if you were in my area (Orlando, FL), I have some old used original CCR ribbons, but don't know if they are in their full length original size, looks like some have been cut down. But, if you had been local to me, you could have come and picked them up for free. I know they are 12V, but I can't read or see the chip # on them. They were given to me, but I'll never use them, currently they are just dust collectors. Not even sure how many I have, they're all just tossed in a box together.

Orville Posted September 27, 2023 Share Posted September 27, 2023 Just in case anyone was interested in the CCR's I have. They are now spoken for, and are no longer available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted September 28, 2023 Share Posted September 28, 2023 The original CCRs (CR150D) were 12v LPD8603 and were four wire as they had a separate clock wire. Here is the original manual for them: https://www1.lightorama.com/PDF/CR150D_Man_Web.pdf Here you can purchase some: https://www.amazon.com/LPD6803-SMD5050-150LEDs-Waterproofing-Skipping/dp/B08S31QCLD/ref=sr_1_4?crid=37UPLTGBI5IFN&keywords=lpd6803+pixel&qid=1695909622&sprefix=lpd6803+pixel%2Caps%2C85&sr=8-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian1972 Posted October 5, 2023 Author Share Posted October 5, 2023 Hi would they be ready to go once I replace the end? Do I need to change any programming? thank you Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing you may need to verify is color order, RGB, BRG or GBR. Edited October 5, 2023 by Mr. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 2 hours ago, Brian1972 said: Hi would they be ready to go once I replace the end? Do I need to change any programming? thank you Brian Just to clear things up: 'Programming' as you used it, is your sequence/show. Your replacement is a Like kind device (smart) so no changes. This would be the same as if you replaced the Cosmic color controller/strings with a Pixie and newer nodes. OTOH +IF+ the chip in the device HAD changed models, or the color order the CONTROLLER settings (using HU) would need to be adjusted. 💡 If in doubt: Use HU to turn on a single color at a time. if they light up correctly 👍 If you turned on Red , but Green came on, the your order needs to be changed (probably GRB, but test the other 2) The rest is good.

stevehoyt Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 @ItsMeBobO Hi I just tried to buy the one you referenced on Amazon, but it is sold out. Do you know of any other sources? I found this on Superlighting do you think it is the same. https://www.superlightingled.com/lpd6803-dc12v-series-flexible-led-strip-lights-programmable-pixel-full-color-chasing-waterproof-ip65-150leds-164ft-per-reel-by-sale-p-148.html Thanks Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. P Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Hey Don, can the original CCRs use any other IC other then the four wire LPD6803 or is it locked? I can't find anything in the manual or other information about any other IC compatibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehoyt Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 If anyone knows of a cheaper one please ket me know. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 6803 pixels are rare and hard to find. If you can find them cheap then jump on them. If you only need one and are willing to pay the price these come in the IP67 silicon tubes: https://www.amazon.com/6803-Multicolors-Controller-Adapter-Waterproof/dp/B0746K8L42/ref=d_pd_sim_sccl_2_1/144-1310430-9025838?pd_rd_w=wWwaf&content-id=amzn1.sym.2351c4aa-bb60-45da-95b0-d52caf1c26f1&pf_rd_p=2351c4aa-bb60-45da-95b0-d52caf1c26f1&pf_rd_r=K4EDMB9QBAA50P4BERGJ&pd_rd_wg=YzuHp&pd_rd_r=385b5ec7-c287-42be-876c-d7b97ae52aad&pd_rd_i=B0746KGL9Q&th=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehoyt Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 I just got my replacement ribbon. The ribbon show what's connects where, but not sure what the pin outs are for the CR150d. I looked in the manual but can't find the pin outs. Does anyone know them by chance. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
