White flash when turning on LED Strip
My first WLED project: putting LED strips between acoustic panels. Super simple, but came with a lot of problems (skill issue, I know)! I have an RGBCCT LED Strip from BTF-Lighting, see specs. I control the strips with a Gledopto ESP32 controller.
I'd like to use the built-in relay feature that completely turns off the LED strips when not in use, however when I do, the LEDs give a flash of white when turned on (see GIF, it's only ~3 frames but it's visible).
Setting these up in WLED has also been a bit of a pain, since it's an RGBCCT strip. If I understand it correctly, it uses two WS2811 chips per segment, one for CCT, and the other for RGB. In WLED's settings, the best way to control these is by setting the chip to FW1906 GRBCW because it allows me to control the white channel separately... Either way the flash of white appears when turning on the LEDs, and it doesn't happen when I turn off the relay.
Does anybody know the best way to resolve this? Or did I just make a mistake buying this combo? I wouldn't have asked this but I have way more of the Gledopto controllers and LED strips. Could it maybe be a power supply thing? Happy to get some feedback! 😄
