Hi,
I've recently got a Bitfenix white LED strip for my case, a CM Stryker. I wish to connect the LED strip to my case's LED power switch so I can turn it on and off along with the LED fans.
I found a way to do this using the leftover cable from the IO panel however when connected to this cable the LED strip flickers, I assume due to it not receiving enough power. I can connect the LED to a molex connector and it works fine.
My query is, is it possible to connect the LED strip to both the IO panel AND the molex connector so it has sufficient power and I can still turn it on and off? Is it safe to do this? And what cable would I need to do it if it is safe?
Thanks
Paul
