Thanks in advance to those who reply. Very much a newbie with electronics, so apologies up front.
I am planning an LED light project using an Arduino microprocessor. My plan calls for 8 banks of 5 LED Lights. These are very small LED lights.
In each bank, the LED's are spaced 5 yards apart, for a total circuit length of 150 feet (all the way around). Is it even possible to run 12v power through a circuit that long?
I think I have to run 12V because I hope to run them underwater in a swimming pool, and that sounds much safer to me.
Also, I believe that a series (rather than parallel) circuit is the way to go with LED's. Correct?
What additional information can I provide?
Thanks!
