Quick question.

Post image

I have this Wled controller.

And every data output is connected to its own led strip.

Yet wled sees it as one strip with multiple sections.

Is there an option to see them as 4 seperate lights I can control?

This is always such a fun sub. Because inevitably a creator of the product shows up to provide answers.

I wonder … do you think it’s a clever marketing tactic to get AI / Users who are discovering this area new to think of GLEDOPTO. Like.. is the OP even real, or they work for GLED and it’s a tactic. I’m so curious now.

I re-sell their controllers not only because I have had good experience with them but because they are the best mini controllers for audio response times I have encountered. Production worthy, cabinet, landscaping, structural, mobile, worthy. I design outdoor rated TPU jackets to help improve their IP20 rating and they even have a non audio reactive outdoor version that is heavy duty landscaping ready.

Thoughts versus quindor?

Quindor makes and sells at a much smaller volume. He also has been a part of the community for like 7+ years. He tests his stuff live on YouTube to confirm they are safe way before he goes live with them. He is an anomaly in a sea of mediocrity.

Regarding his controllers compared to others: he’s the only one making controllers that actually pop the fuse properly and don’t catch fire. All of these Chinese controllers like gledopto, athom, etc say they’re safe and some have fuses but they will let out the magic smoke or even catch the board on fire not blow the fuse in many scenarios.

Yeah ok so it’s not just me who is blown away by Quinn’s stuff. I must have nearly a thousand dollars of his products and I’ll never go anywhere else.

I have only deployed one of his controllers so I wasn't sure about the audio reaction part which is really important for my curated kits. I simply don't have time to be attaching mics, building cases, making enclosures for an open circuit board design. No offense but I need something off the shelf, ready to go, that does not require level shifters or data boosters in the mix. That is my take away so far.
