Logic Level Shifter & LED Strips: I Got It Wrong

Correction alert! In my previous videos on logic level shifters and LED strips, I made some incorrect assumptions and errors. This video addresses those mistakes and provides the correct information and proper shifter selection to get your LEDs working flawlessly. Let's fix it! A huge shout-out to Quindor over at @IntermitTech for his helpful information and assistance in helping me understand why my initial selection of a shifter wasn't the best option... and can even be detrimental in some situation.
