Q: Why can't I put all the LEDs in one color?

BG521481610 Previous answers didn't really answer the question. This strip has individually controlled LEDs, so does need an 'addressable' LED controller. With such a controller you can set any led on the strip to any colour - this includes the ability to set all LEDs to the same colour, as per the original question.

BG521481610 I really don't think you can trust this listing. The images are of more than one product and at least four images are knocked off and 'photoshopped' from a main brand (Twinkly Lights). I am even doubting any of the pictures shown are of the actual product but scraped from other manufacturers. Several images show single color strings with two running lines between single leds. Others show 4 lines between Leds. One image, with 4 lines, shows three leds at each node which might suggest these are PWM controled lights so not addressable. However, this would make the photos showing multicolor strings clearly misleading. Also, if you are thinking these are copies of the twinkly lights - they are not and will not be compatible. Twinkly lights use a different data transmission path and protocol and do not use WS2811 style or similar leds. Buy with the utmost caution. You will likely not get what you are expecting.
