Flickering Lights

Flickering Lights

If the lights are flickering, it can be caused by any of these issues:

Lack of Power

This is usually due to having the brightness turned too low. Try turning it up. Also check your power injection points. 

Long Jump over 30 FT

If you have made a large jump between sections of lights, this is the most likely cause. If your kit included a data booster, you will need to put one in about half way through the jump.  

Poor Connection

Unplug your controller box and check all of your connections that involve the green data wire.
