@danishcookies mods have very messed up sleep patterns, never be so sure

@maple that's a good chonky calculator right there

@natalie@masto.ninja oh yeah, these are just the plain boring ones

@natalie@masto.ninja was wrong about it being 600, it's only 300, which is still ridiculously bright

@natalie@masto.ninja just a cheap 12v power supply, needs about 40W so one of those ones that looks like it's for laptops

haven't tested it with a power meter or anything but I'm assuming it's not too much

@penguin42 your standard LED strip like you can get from amazon or just about anywhere else, comes as a self adhesive tape with LEDs along it, costs about a tenner for 5 metres then you just need a 40W 12v power supply

no, wait, I was wrong, it's 300 of them, 60 per metre

600x 5050 SMD LEDs are quite bright

@natalie@masto.ninja H

and on the nth day, sam put a shitload of LED lights in their dad's new shed, and you could see bloody everything
