Only problem I found is that they work on 5V so each meter consumes around 18W or 3.5A. if you want a long chain you must add a thick cable for the power as the strip itself can&rsquo;t carry so many amps without a large voltage drop. They should make these strips work on 24V or even 48V.</p> GeoffT urn:uuid:2ad5448e-0421-b724-839d-e775a4a72c54 2016-11-07T11:43:37-07:00 <p>It should be normal practice, when offering a product with connectors, to either stock the mates or provide a link to a source or at least an industry part number. I can&rsquo;t use this without the mating connectors, delaying a purchase from you.</p> Customer #582226 urn:uuid:d8cbd00f-0896-aa6b-39f1-dbee66f4e7c9 2016-11-05T10:09:49-06:00 <p>is there a recommended JST 4 pin connector with flying leads assembly that will connect to the input side of this ?</p> ShawnHymel urn:uuid:b89a5d3b-2b06-1815-f168-61deaeb084d8 2016-10-27T10:57:16-06:00 <p>The <a href="https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED" rel="nofollow" >FastLED library</a> works really well.</p> Billbo911 urn:uuid:01e9fbf4-26c1-1051-76f5-2b615a2af0f0 2016-10-21T11:55:05-06:00 <p>Are there Arduino and RPi libraries for these?
