12mm light strip

Post by Alex_W »

I recently purchased a light strip from Adafruit. I followed the tutorial to both the t's. The problem is the lights won't light. After plugging them in I got a very brief response of light then nothing. I purchased the recommended 5v power supply and the breakout option to connect directly to the strip so no breadboard is needed, and still nothing. In fear that I was being dumb I tried the other side. Still nothing! So I am wondering if there is an option to get them replaced or if there is something I am missing?
