No idea what's wrong, plz help

    Hi, there,


    I've got my Hyperion on Windows 11, and while it used to work, suddenly a few months ago it stopped and I have no idea what's wrong. Everything appears to be working in Hyperion, output log has no errors to speak of, shows the led and output image are working fine, but the lights just don't come on.


    I've tried replacing the lights, wires, power supply, and Arduino, but nothing seems to work permanently, though for some weird reason it works like every once in a blue moon, so I have no clue what's going on.


    Any help would be appreciated!


    My setup is below:


    Hardware:

    12V 10 AMP AC adapter

    WS2815 leds

    Arduino nano running FastLED


    setup photo included, as are my FastLED code and output log

    Again, any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi OrajelToothpaste,

    and while it used to work,

    is this really true?

    Maybe i miss something, but the WS2815 datasheet says ViH = 0.7VDD

    Which means the data line voltage should be 0.7 times your supply voltage.

    12V * 0.7 = 8,4V

    But the Arduino's GPIO output voltage is just 5V.


    Best regards
