RGB Strings

RGB strings can come in three basic types:

  • "Super strings" - a collection of three individual colored strings (1Red, 1Green, 1 Blue) wrapped together. The colors do not mix to form other colors, but are used to give the three primary colors as effects.
  • Dumb RGB Strings - a string of RGB LEDs that can be adjusted to any color by using a dc controller to control the string. Dumb strings can only change all of the LEDs at once, they can not be individually controlled
