Each LED has a built-in constant-current driver chip, keeping colours consistent even when supply voltage drifts slightly from 5V, and the strip is fully compatible with WLED, working well with controllers such as the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/zaitronics.com.au\/collections\/led-strip-accessories\/products\/gledopto-15a-wled-esp32-dual-addressable-led-controller-with-microphone\"\u003eGledopto WLED ESP32 controller\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe black PCB sits flush and unobtrusive against black aluminium channels, black enclosures, and dark mounting surfaces, and it hides dust and fingerprints better than a white PCB over time. If you're after a strip that shows less of the board itself between LEDs, this is the version to go with; if you'd rather maximise light output and reflection off the PCB, our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/zaitronics.com.au\/products\/ws2812b-addressable-led-strip-white-5m-60-leds-ip65\"\u003ewhite PCB IP65 version\u003c\/a\u003e is the better pick.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRated IP65, the strip is coated against dust and splashing or spraying water from any direction, making it suitable for indoor use and for sheltered outdoor spots like covered patios or eaves, though it isn't rated for full water immersion or constant direct rain exposure.

The current figure above is the maximum draw under full-brightness white; typical colourful animations use a lot less under normal conditions. It's best to size up rather than down, since a larger power supply gives you headroom to expand your project later without needing an upgrade.
