Thanks I appreciate it. I talked to a couple stand design companies but felt they were way too conservative on their designs.That’s partly why I’m posting closeups and such. I wish I’d had more detailed pictures to go off of as well. Maybe these posts will help somebody in the future.
Hopefully the LEDs come out okay. I’m fine wiring single color LEDs, but I’m not quite sure if RGB LEDs, 4x reed switches, and a WLED control board will all work off one power supply.
After your video post of the wleds I looked into them a bit. It’s a pretty cool system. I’m going to play around with them too at some point. The Reed switches won’t draw any extra power, but could add some resistance to the circuit which will affect your power input that’s needed. I wouldn’t think by much. I’ll be curious how you incorporate the Reed switches into your wiring. Are you going to have separate led strips go off each switch or will any switch trigger all the leds?
I’m also curious if it’s possible to connect the controller, in your case apex, to the wled programming to make it change colors depending on certain circumstances. For instance make them turn red is a parameter like temp goes out of range.
