I'd shoot David an email and ask.  If I remember correctly, his chip isn't one that works with our stuff here at DLA.  But, I'd verify that as his site doesn't say what chip is in his flex strips.

Elsewhere in the threads on another site they are the same supplier as Ray's, I'm ordering enough strips and nodes to get the discounts, after you pay shipping from Ray it is a wash and supports a US based supplier.

I also saw where he was sourcing a new WS2812B flex strip with high led counts.  Those may not work so well with the DILYA because of node count limits of the string controllers.
