Hey I'm planning a 4x2 meter led matrix (horizontal snaking unless someone else has a better idea) of WS2812B leds, of course. I got a 1 meter prototype running nicely using the Octo-shield and Teensy 3.2 I got a few questions before I drop 6-8 Jeffersons on the project though. Will I be good if I just plug the PSUs into the wall and connect them in parallel or is that A) not going to be enough power from one socket, or better yet B) cause a fire inside my walls. I've got 9600 (around 700 amps) leds according to my calculations and I live in the US if that has any relevancy. What fuses should I buy so I can assure the safety of the leds from surges etc. And will i be good with one teensy/octo or am i going to need to pair up a couple/a few (if so how do i do that). thanks for the help everyone.
