ARGB controller limit

I see on the documentation that the controller is limited to how many LEDs ( 6 Addressable RGB headers (up to 80 LEDs per port, 240 total) ) Is this just due to power? If I inject power along the strip as needed (is injecting 5v ok?), is the controller capable of sensing and controlling MANY more LEDs? I’m looking for the same answer… I’ve built a custom desk for my computer room and I want to use the Razer controller to control it all.  The desk is ten feet wide, so I need 90 LED’s just to power the front edge of the desk, then another 18 LED’s down each side.  I’ll also have multiple runs behind the TV and monitors, along with some lighting behind some shelving for my gaming systems. The light strips I bought have 150 LED’s in a row, and I have an external power supply that can run 5VDC at 60 amps… so injecting power at various locations is not an issue.  The Razer controller is equipped with an over current protection circuit, so even if I messed something up, it’s not likely to da

CHROMA LIGHT STRIP SET | Set Your RGB Free

KasparKuldkeppI got mine a week ago, and honestly I love them except the power off and on is horrible, wtf. I have a custom loop threadripper station with 2 rads. And I switch off my pc during night time and daytime when at work, at office. So I have to mess with turning off and on the lights 4 times a day? And I can't ever put the controller away from sight because then I would have to reach under the table every day to switch off the lights? This is beyond stupid. THERE SHOULD BE AN OPTION FOR AUTOMATICALLY TURNING THEM OFF WHEN PC IS OFF. And it is insane that there isn't. Agreed! I have my system setup to turn off the monitors after 5 minutes of no activity, then go into sleep/hibernation after 10 minutes. The wireless controller turns off the LED lighting when the monitors turn off, but as soon as the PC goes into sleep/hibernation the wireless controller loses connection to the USB device and just dumps into a factory preset with lights on. Having it remember what state it

[SUPPORT VIDEO] How to disassemble the Razer Iskur

Great chair, but only if you are a regular/small sized person. I'm 6'1" and 285 lbs... and the lower seat cushion 'wings' on each side of the seat eat into my legs on each side. If they were pitched outwards at an angle 15 - 30 degrees, they would be perfect. I've considered removing the lower upholstery and cutting the tubular frame, cutting and re-welding it to fit me, but for now I'm sticking with the factory design. The lowest height of the chair is substantially higher than my last chair... to the point that my desk and it's keyboard tray are too low to slide over my legs, even at minimal height. YMMV. Time to build a custom desk. Mark

Synapse 3 Update Crashed my PC

Turns out, I had a RAM overheating issue, which caused Win 10 to become corrupted. I spent DAYS testing the RAM and got some better cooling solutions going on, and had to reinstall Windows to get things back where they should be. It's been rock solid ever since. (I haven't updated Win 10 because I've read that there are some issues with a recent update.) Now my only problem is that Synapse doesn't know to turn things back on once Win 10 goes into shutdown mode. I had things set that if/when it went to sleep, all of the lighting turned off. That part worked great... but when I mash the keyboard and the PC wakes up, Synapse forgets to turn on the lighting on my motherboard. (Keyboard, mouse, and mouse pad turn on just fine.) I have to manually go into Synapse and turn, "Brightness" back on to get the lights to fire up. Any ideas?

Synapse 3 Update Crashed my PC

Just following up on this one... after the uninstall and BSOD's I went back and hit a known restore point in Windows. After I did the Restore, I ran "sfc /scannow" from an elevated command prompt and it came back all clear, so I know that the Restored version of Windows 10 is okay. (For now.) I'm going to run through a few sets of drivers now to see if that works... but so far, my machine is running fine without Synapse installed. More to come. Mark
