First few LEDs in strip not working. Brizlabs String light + BTF SP803E
I am testing out a configuration using a 5V 66 ft 200 light String light from Brizlabs and a BTF SP803E WLED controller.
It is working properly on the WS281X setting for all lights except the first 30 or so are not working. They are remaining a static white color and the on/off controls do not work.
I checked the old controller and it looks like it used a 200 ohm resistor on the data line (photo 2). The BTF Lighting SP803E looks like it uses a 430 ohm resistor from the screenshot (photo 3). Is the data line resistor potentially the source of the issue?
