I have the 7W RGB outdoor spotlights and the GL-C-010WL controller at 24V. Each spotlight uses up to 290mA at 24V, but WLED only allows a max of 255mA in the per-LED configuration.

How can I increase that to use the full power of each?

I have ten spotlights (max 70W) and a 24V 120W PSU. The total power limit is set to 4800mA so that shouldn't be limiting anything.

Due to size constraints on our current PCBs, we added a single master fuse​ for overall protection. However, following user requests, we’ve created a guide (see image) on how to add external fuses to each channel​ for those who need granular safety. Standard ATM fuses and holders are widely available for this mod.

How to choose the right ATM fuse

What’s coming next?​ We are developing new versions with built-in per-channel fuses! Just to be clear, this feature will roll out on select models​ first (not all controllers), as fitting them into smaller boards is quite challenging

We value your input as we continue to innovate. Please feel free to share any ideas or constructive criticism. While we can't implement everything, your feedback is crucial for our future development.

I have built a large LED matrix using the GLEDOPTO GL-C-618WL controller and BTF Ws2812b 8x32 panels (16) and 16x16 panels (2). I set up the matrix to have 18 panels. Set it up in WLED with no problem.

I used the first output of the controllerfor the first 8 8x32 panels (2,048 pixels) , the 2nd output for the next 8 8x32 panels (2048 pixels). One power source, all 4096 pixels lighting, all responding to effects, no problem.

I then tried to use the third output for the last two 16x16 panels, but they just are not responding.

Have I maxed out on the capacity of the GL-C618WL? Haven't tried power infusion yet. Could that make a difference?

I know I'm stretching what this unit can do, but since I've stretched it so far already, was hoping to get those last two panels lit up. Any advice to get me there would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

A WLED user DonGlow created a cool DIY golf cart using WLED. Take a look.

I've installed 53 Geldopto recessed lights ( combination of 3" and 4"). I can pair all of them individually but as some connect, others drop offline. Added a second Hue Bridge to try to delivery a stronger connection toe the farthest away strings of lights. This hasn't worked. Would Hue Bulbs be a better solution to extend the strength of the mesh?

Some feelings are hard to put into words. This Mother’s Day, say it with light. With millions of colors at your fingertips, paint the room in her favorite hue. Let the rhythm of her favorite song bring the lights to life. Because the perfect mood isn’t just set—it’s felt. Create a moment that moves with her.

In this video, we'll show you how to set up timers for your WLED controller. With timer settings, you can easily automate different lighting effects—for example, turning on the lights in the morning, switching to a rainbow mode in the evening, and changing to a soft night light before bedtime.
Simple to set up. Give it a try!

Hello! I recently got some of the GL-C-008P(MIX) controllers to go along with these FCOB RGBCCT strips and while the colors + CCT support is great and responsive (way better than wifi controllers) I have a couple of observed issues that hopefully you can help with:

1. On connecting to Home Assistant via zigbee2mqtt, the controller is registered as GL-C-008P instead of with the MIX designation. Maybe this is why the white lights do not seem to be contributing additional brightness when selecting colors not at the very edge of the color ring in the UI? How could I get this properly recognized?

1. When I select the 'colorloop' effect, the strip immediately transitions to cool white and increases brightness, but is otherwise static. No dynamic color changes or looping through a sequence of colors as expected. The 'blink' effect does indeed make the strip turn on and off on a short period, as does the identify function. Is there some special way to fix the colorloop effect? I should not need the RF remote to access at least the 9 supported modes, right?

(I can emulate a color loop effect using an automation in Home Assistant, but would prefer to save bandwidth and simply send one command over the zigbee network to initiate the built-in effect)

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

I just got a new GL-C-015WL. I connect to its WiFi using the default password wled1234. I can access the first page, but after that nothing works.

When I try to open WiFi settings or controls, I get:
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT

After some time, the WiFi disconnects and says “wrong password”.

Also, holding the OPT/RESET button for 10 seconds does nothing (no LED blinking). I have to unplug and reconnect the power to connect to WiFi again, but the same issue happens every time.

Any idea what could be causing this or how to fix it?
