    Nicely done. I appreciate the detail you show. I was just talking about this with a friend of mine. Do you have video or other pictures of the RGB action?

    Seems to me that a Teensy is a great way for you to further your goals. The programming language is the same as Arduino, with a few additions. That is because Paul, the creator of Teensy, has built...

    Since you want zero-cross detection, couldn't you use a comparator circuit for that and then have that provide the sync signal for PWM?

    Isn't the TIP120 a Darlington pair? Seems like you'd want a MOSFET for high-speed use. But you said you need 1ms and that the TIP120 is 20 us, so aren't you fine?
