Dumb RGB Flex Strips
« on: January 30, 2012, »
So little confused with the common + in some of the posts I've read.

What is everyone using for dumb RGB flex strings with their MR16?

The MR16 switches the grounds (-), not the source.
That means that for the RGB LEDs, you need common anode (+) to use them with the MR16.

The + terminals on the MR16 are all connected together.
