EVO Pixels - 12V - WS2811 - xConnect

Mattos Designs EVO 12mm Pixels (12V, WS2811 Compatible) - xConnect

EVO Pixels from Mattos Designs are 12V RGB pixels built around a native 12V WS2811 LED/IC assembly. The design eliminates onboard resistors and regulators, reducing power draw and internal failure points compared to traditional 12V bullet pixels.

Key features

• Native 12V WS2811 LED/IC design (no resistors or regulators)
• Lower current draw per pixel
• Encapsulated electronics with over-molded PVC shell
• Designed for long runs and high pixel counts
• Flush fit in coroplast props

Technical specifications

• Input voltage: 12V DC
• Protocol: WS2811 compatible
• Housing diameter: 12 mm
• Current draw: ~8 mA per pixel
• Protection rating: IP67 (encapsulated PCB and wire, enclosed in PVC shell)
• Wire type: 10-strand black wire
• Pixel spacing options:
  • 10 cm (4 in)
  • 5.7 cm (2.25 in, special order only)
• Connectors: xConnect pigtails
• Certifications: UL Listed, CE, RoHS, FCC

Installation notes

• Designed to sit flush in 10 mm coroplast
• Integrated locking nubs help retain pixels in props
• Flat back and tapered shell ease insertion into pixel strips
• Polarity markings (+ / Data / −) on each pixel

Weight

• Approx. 238 g per 100 pixels (4 in spacing)
• Significantly lighter than standard 12V bullet pixels for large props

Warranty

• 3-year manufacturer warranty
• Applies to unmodified and uncut pixel strings, including labels
