Hello all. I’m trying to use these rgbw chips for my crystal chamber and the only color that doesn’t seem right is royal blue as is activates the yellow side of the chip giving me a faded blue. Is there a way for me to avoid this by adjusting my config?

No, unfortunately this is an optical problem with the chip, not with the signals sent to it.  
I recommend RGB chips instead of RGBW chips.

Okay thank you, I got these for their cool white feature. I’ll have to try another method

Regular RGB pixels can produce cool white colors, they just don’t do it for Rgb(255,255,255). Maybe try Rgb(240,255,240) ?

I just made these values up, I did not actually try them…

Well it gave one of those “DUH!” moments where I too focused on the color being the “actual color”, (in this case all the values had to line up exactly to be white), to make the color I wanted.

Kinda like how I have a bunch of tweaks & shades for Red that have just a touch of blue or green, rather than just giving every Sith a Red Rgb(255,0,0) Lightsaber!
