I am making a few LED signs and to save on space and power supplies, i wanted to run them off of 120volts ac.
I know that the set up will be 120 v outlet, diode bridge, capacitor, and roughtly 60 leds depending on color and voltage of that color.
I will need more then 60 leds to do the entire sign. so my questions is where do i split the power to set up additional stings of leds.
Do i need to split it before it hits the diode bridge and converts to dc and just include a second diode bridge
or can i split it after it hits the diode bridge, and just add the 2 or 3 sets i will need with just one diode bridge?
thanks for any help
