Blink and aaaah!, indeed!

Hey Jon, have you tried running this on your newly acquired LPD strip? Both with and without the paper diffuser, and full brightness (use an external PSU.)

I will later, possibly in the next few days. I have some out of town work thru the weekend, meaning no led fun for me. I just got a DC-DC buck converter from adafruit, and it can run 3amps output. It gets a bit toasty, but it works great.

At full brightness, full duty cycle, the LEDs would pull 2.688A (purely calculated numbers), plus the drivers themselves. So you’ll be hitting that 3A fairly easy at full white.

i like this it looks really cool

Which material did you use. I got some effect like that with polypropylene foil, just curious if you found something that give a similar effect, because PP is difficult to glue.

@Kasper_Kamperman In this video it’s just a sheet of white printer paper. The secret is out!
