    Hello, I’ve been experimenting with neopixel strips and encountered an apparent limit of about 20. Why is this and can I overcome it? Thanks.

    I have run 24 off safely.

    I’d expect the problem is power.
    Neopixels need a very stable 5V supply. The signal can be a lower voltage.
    The ring is connected to external batteries for their power.
