AliExpress Nov 11th sale? Seems like there’s some sort of sale happening on the 11th. Anyone have any past experience or tips about this? Does Ray Wu’s store participate in this?

RayWu did not have these special discount :confused:

Last year i got 100 C9 crystal covers/shades for a good price (including shipping). But i didnt see anything of significance from Ray or Rita :disappointed:

I’m in. And these will replace the Adafruit versions exactly?

@Henry_Birdseye_Jr , if you get LEDs of the same controller type (APA102, LPD8806, WS2812, etc) as from Adafruit then it should work the same.

Thanks for that @Jason_Coon ​ i’ve stocked up :smile:
