I connected the power supply 12V to the LED strip.

If I connect DI with pin D2 WS2812B RGB Shield https://github.com/arendst/Sonoff-Tasmota/wiki/Wemos-D1-Mini-and-WS2812B-RGB-Shield in my led strip WS2818 only the first 30 pixels work. And led strip flickers.

How to correctly connect? Thank!

Thanks @mike2nl , I read. An article about WS2812B, but I have a WS2818. This led strip WS2818 receives power 12V. Can this article apply to WS2818?
