no not that kind, you need cord like 3x1,5mm2
This is hard wire you need soft wire, don't know how in English it's called
The earth (yellow/green) you don't use then
Sorry, I'm a bit confused about the wire. What's the difference between the one that I posted and yours? How can I make sure that the wire it's fine?
Thanks first for your answer.
10Amps is a lot of current so you can't use gauges thats less than the ledstrip.
So how do I get the right cable on amazon? Which cable has the right gauge?
I searched "1.5mm cable" and got
I'm newbie about it so I'm asking to be clear, sorry for my dumb questions.
The level shifter is needed because the data pin of ESP32 has 3.3V and I need it to 5V right? I read that you don't need it if the wiring to the LED is short so they suggest to just cut the wire and solder it to be shorter, would that resolve the problem?
Another thing I noticed is that the wires I used are less thick than those of the LEDs, is that a problem? I bought the first cables I saw on amazon, so I don't know if I had to be careful about anything.
About the PSU, for me the brightness right now is fine but I would buy it if I need it to solve the flickering problem.
Can I just shorter the cable and buy later a PS?
Is the PSU that I linked before enough?
Do I need to connect the other side as well?
i found this scheme to mount the level shifter and a PS and I just have a question.
I know that every circuit does need power to work but why there's a 3.3V and a 5V on the other side? Is that line converting the voltage? There's even 2 GND...
Wasn't the level shifter only needed to change the voltage of the data line?
Why the 5V on the other side connected to the PS?
LED is flickering sometimes even if the video is not moving, video. I'm using 280 LED in totals so I tried to use only the top of the 89 and nothing changed, video.
I'm using a ESP32 and WS2812B led without a PSU. Esp32 is connected in just 1 side of the LED, usb port has 5V 1A (written on it) is 1A too low (even for only 89 leds)? I tried to connect it with a phone charger 5V 2A, same problem
Should I buy a PSU ? Was thinking about
I tried to change depth and overlap but nothing.
Last thing is that I don't have a splitter:
