    I am strict about showing things off ahead of time, I have disqualified entrants in the past for that violation, and I AM EVERYWHERE. So I will see it if it gets posted ANYWHERE.

    Knight,

    Thanks for the warning... I guess the forums will have to wait until it is posted to see it...

    If you’re who I believe you are, I remember a bit about your history as well.

    FJK,

    Understood and then let me rephrase... The world will have to wait until it is posted to see it.

    Unfortunately I do not have any high powered LEDs... Before I unsolder and disconnect all my wiring I will try to test them with the Raspberry PI again using the PCB connections.

Thanks again to you Steve and everyone that has been so helpful.

    Thanks,

    Steve,

    Just thought you might want to know... I finally got around to testing the bad strips and I only lost 1 pixel on each strip so I have another set of 143 pixels These will be going into my next blade which was to be shorter anyway so it all worked out.

    Again, thanks for all the help.

    Nice. Glad to hear it; they are expensive enough so it would be a pain in the butt if they were wasted.
