Wled flickering

I have a weird problem I can't figure out. Because of the huge power consumption I installed two power supplies. One is 5v 30a, wled flickering, the other 5v 40a. Ground IS connected between both.

If you accidentally connected the strip the wrong way if it has arrows printed on, make sure they face away from the pin, otherwise pay attention to the DIN printing. Most strips have the 3-pin male JST connector with 3 holes on the input side. Some users have reported troubles booting even with the direction being correct. In that case, please try adding a 3. If you did not enter a static IP, the module will automatically obtain a dynamic IP from the router. You can check it in the router configuration or in the settings page, if the Access Point is still enabled.

I want to use a self soldered ESP12E board with minimal space requirements. With this board I have some LED glitches. Most of the time the selected color is shown, but randomly short burst with a different color appears. A single level shifter is also used, but the led stripe works flawless with a nodemcu even without a level shifter. If I set the brightness the glitches don't appear, all other glitches are with full brigthness. If I use only a red color, those glitches are mostly green, sometimes blue.

I updated the LED count to and tried to update the amps to 2amps with no change.

The rest seem fine. There are a total of ws pixels, 12v. If I run an effect, the pixel colors seem fine, but create a flicker almost like a subtle strobe. Anyone know what the issue might be?

Soldered all joints replaced jumper cables with 20 gage wire segments and soldered. Thanks for the answer. What is the difference between the brightness sliders in the web UI? The module once was connected, but I can no longer reach it The wled-xxx. When it's off it flickers once in seconds.

Yes, I added the level shifter after these glitches appear. You should read these pages. If I use only a red color, those glitches are mostly green, sometimes blue. Thanks for the video! If you do not have any power injection points, add one to the middle and far end. Will make a video tomorrow. Hi everyone, I just start playing with wled and fastled, but I have some unexpected issue during my testing. Jump to bottom. Tried a few additional items without success: I have wire nut on the data cables. One is 5v 30a, the other 5v 40a. I have tried other effects, but only found halloween working without flashes when both are ON.
