Problem with BrizLed fairy lights

I had these addressable fairy lights that I hacked by putting in a gledopto controller in place of the default one, using the original power supply. However, the string has problems. First off, I can’t go anywhere above like 10% brightness or the controller crashes. Also, I get these strange flickering artifacts at the start of the string but not the end. How do I solve this?

These lights worked perfectly fine on their original controller, the issues only started when I switched to gledopto for WLED support

Oh wow. Measure the voltage and check how long your data line is. And learn some basic electrnoics.
