Let’s say you are controlling it and putting a moving color effect on it, does the effect STOP at where you cut it at like it’s supposed to? Or will it take a few more seconds for the effect to restart and cycle back because the other end is missing?
@@das_radiergummi so if I use a esp32 and control it with wled… how do I make so that the effect ENDS exactly where you cut it at (last led) and cycles back?
@@mysticqro950you just need to know the amount of LEDS on the strip, for example you'll have a strip with 60LEDs/M (total LEDs on 5M are 300LEDs) and you cut it at 2.5M you will get 150 LEDs. That's the trick :)
If your strip can’t not display multiple colors at once is the easiest way to tell. Those are called 5050. They are cheaper compared to ws2812b (NeoPixels).
Instead of soldering, can i simply use the "snap connectors" that I see others using?
Thank you.

Depends on the controller, not the strip!

All you need to do it entering the number of LEDs of your Strip. All effects will working like a full strip then ... (I use WLED btw.)
@@das_radiergummi THANK YOU!
Bisa kah menggunakan usb charger untuk 5 meter???
Can these be used in a pc case?
yeah, it can
Does anyone know how to identify the strip? I have a bunchy of these different strips and I can't remember the part number nor the voltage.
