    Hello all!

 

    I'm working on a project in which my current plan is to build about 50 little LED "blocks," each with 4 LEDs on the (RGBA).

 

    In my head, the blocks are about 1.5" x 1.5" x .5". Each needs a minimum of four conductors going into the blocks, and a minimum of four conductors going out of the blocks - as I'll be wiring each block in series of 3s. So Block 1 comes from (4) 12VDC + channels, and Block 3 goes to a common ground.

 

    I'm thinking of the cheapest, most efficient, and most reusable way to do this. My current thought is to purchase some dual port RJ11 surface mount jacks Surface Mount Jack, 12V Inline LED Dimmer Switch (http://www.xledpanellights.com/12v-inline-led-dimmer-switch-with-rotary-knob-2a-24w-p-283.html)and install the LEDs on top of the boxes. Then I can use cheap phone cable to link each box together.

 

    Just wondering if any of you brilliant folks out there have any other suggestions for modular blocks/enclosures with a cheap and efficient means of getting a total of (8) conductors in & out of there.

 

Thanks!
