I think if you make an update it does the forum post…
I couldn’t figure it out so I just copy/pasted a new one and deleted the old one, which did cause a new forum thread to magically appear…
FYI, I tried a quick test with SPI set to run at 10MHz (10,000 KHz) and I didn’t see any noticeable difference in perf on a full reel.
Ah well… it was worth a shot… TY for trying it out!
@ aaronkirk - What microcontroller did you use to drive the LEDs? How about a picture or a video?
@ ransomhall - Looks like you scared him away.

@ mike - this isn’t Vermont
seems like the forum is funky today. Mike posted thrice, and I get posting errors (twice now).
When I tried to post my reply, I was getting a HTTP 500 error. After three tries I gave up. I guess it worked but died at a later point.
I AM STILL GETTING THE HTTP 500 ERROR MESSAGE.
