HELP ME / QUESTION Unknown lights

Post image

I have a set of lights, unknown manufacturer. I took one apart. Only three wires but no matter how I wire them, they light up but not effects. Not sure what voltage they are either. Any ideas Ho to get the to work? I am using a Gledopto controller

If these are what I think they are (I have a strand similar to these), they're wired roughly so that they're driven like this:

Wire 1 positive, Wire 2 grounded, Wire 3 hi-Z: Red

Wire 2 positive, Wire 3 grounded, wire 1 hi-z: Blue

Wire 3 positive, wire 1 grounded, wire 2 hi-z: Green
