Now go forth and add lights to everything! It's worth noting that the RedStick is powerful enough to address a lot more than 60 LEDs, but you'll need to beef up the power supply before you start chaining strips together.
Need more LEDs? Check out these other form factors of the WS2812 Addressable LED strips:
Check out our selection of power supplies, if you need to power more LEDs:
Did you cut the strip? Check out the LED Strip pigtail connector to easily connect the cut strips:
