'Tis the season and I figure I should finally put up some Christmas lights on the house, but ideally I’d like something I can leave up and change colours for other holidays, shots and giggles, etc. So getting some RGB LED strips sounds reasonable.
The problem, potentially, is that it gets below -30° here pretty much every winter. I know this is problematic for batteries, and sometimes other electronics depending on the build, but for a bunch of LEDs with some sort of ZigBee controller I’m less sure.
So: outdoor RGB LEDs when it’s really freaking cold. Anything I should worry about? Any recommendations?
Hmm, thats a bit different than what the other guy said but by and large is in line with my original concerns. Definitely wasn’t going to use any batteries in this, I’m very familiar with batteries dying in the cold, I have plenty of outdoor plugs.
Thanks for the advice, this gives me a pretty good idea of the problems and possible solutions.
