Here is a question/answer from Ray about the new LED.
Hello Ray
DLA has high discussions online about a problem that you changed over you had with the LED.
Going form 29ma LED to 56-60ma LED. This makes it impossible for DLA users to use 128 nodes on one line.
Can you verify if this is true?
I know the technicolor strings have this bright LED in them. DLA tested the light string. We can't use them with 128 nodes.
They use .67 watts per node.

you are right,but the led is only 3.2V/60ma(arount 0.2w),the LDO on the pcb takes about 0.5w power.
you just need to connect it to a bigger power supply , i supposed.
thanks and best regards
