All About My Permanent Individually Addressable Pixel Christmas Lights: Part One

In this video explain how my under-eave permanent mounting pixels work.  I discuss the different types of pixels and what makes them different and how they work.  I also explain some issues you run into with wiring and how the data signal works.  In the following video, I will build a string with you.

Very clear explanation with a lot of details and moreover with a normal speech speed. Easier for me to well understand because English is not my first language.

Thanks for this video. Learned a lot from it.

I noticed you provided a link to the bullet lights with the resistors, but not the square node ones with the voltage regulator. Any chance you could update the description with that link?

Great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge! Do you print the hole jig for sale? I'd love to buy one!

Can you post a link to the 2nd Pixel right array you talked about with solid state device instead of resistors. Thanks

Great video...very informative! where did you get the Blue fixture for drilling the holes in the j channel? Does that fit 3/4" or 1" j channel? Any info on that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the excellent video. It really helped to plan for my installation. Where did you purchase your J Channel? The big box stores in my area do not carry it. Also, what width J Channel would you use for square pixels - 1" or 1-1/2" J Channel? I appreciate your assistance.

Where can I find the exact same lights your talking about? The 18 gauge...

[petedelprado]

Can you give me the link where to find the 10 gauge lights
