Hi!

I have crown molding LED lighting I'm doing. Its turning out well, but most rooms need multiple strips. Not a problem, but the two strips are slightly different color temp. Does anyone know if there's a setting I can play with to get them closer to alignment?

Setup notes:

addressable LED strips
24v with oversized power supply
driver running WLED
two channels on same driver (one strip per).
strip lengths are very close but not identical length

Compare the beginning of the strip against the very end of it, are they the same color? How long are the runs?

About 5M each. The strips are consistent end to end across themselves, just not with each other.

Ah probably not voltage drop then. You can try the white balance correction - https://kno.wled.ge/features/cct/#white-balance-correction

Posting for posterity: Given that WLED now allows for layering of effects, I'm going to explore creating a custom effect to change hue/white to match the two strands/channels. Not sure when I'll get to it but leave the breadcrumb for future folk.
