Hello there!
I am wanting to create a new project with a string of 50 WS2811 LED pixels.
The strip runs at 5V DC and 3A.
The problem is that I am having a hard time finding out if you could power this strip with only the power output of an Arduino Uno or if necessary an Arduino Mega, or do you need an external power supply for the LED strip alone?
I will be running the Arduino not with the USB but with an external power supply.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks in advance!
