So I've been tasked to make some installations which require a warmer colour tone and fire like flickering and such.
Project plan so far is 8 units comprising of an 10W RBG LED and an Amber LED with two ws2811 chips, one having two unused outputs. I've done this with high power LED's before and it required a cap to drain the transistors base (As fas as I could tell...) and a pull-up resisitor, which seemed to work fairly well.... Anyone know of a better/more efficient solution? I have no idea if this is the best.
But my main question is, how difficult would it be to get the software to skip every second ws2811 chip's last two outputs?
Any tips would be much appriciated =)
Cheers
