My brother (led wiz ?)
<< < (2/3) > >>
BobA:
The LED wiz only uses 5 V if the usb supply is used or an external 5V supply.   In reality you can switch any voltage up to about 40V  You just have to follow the directions on how to wire up the separate banks.

Well it's one or the other for power.  You can either get yourself a molex female 4-pin connector and wire it up so it connects to the 5v wire and ground of the PS's Molex connector (or do a quick and dirty "snip" of one of the plugs and just use that) or power through USB (which doesn't provide as much power but may be adequate for what your plans are).

I bought all my [RGB] LED's through Groovygamegear and did not need to wire resistors separately (they are included).   Just a thought to save some trouble.

Oh, I got you.   I thought you meant USB for power.
