LEDs wont light up #251

Hey Guys,

My LEDs wont light up and i dont get why. When i run the visualization its around 60 fps in the Python cmd and also 60 fps in the serial monitor. He pings the ESP8266 and gets a respond. Also i get a respond when i ping it manually from the windows cmd. When im measuring the voltage between DI and Ground from the LEDs it gets 5V also when im Measuring from 5V Input to Ground i get 5V, it seems like everything works but the LEDs wont light up. Strandtest also shows me 9-10 FPS constant but the LEDs wont light up

i hope we can get it to work

thanks in advance

The LEDs can be faulty, try different ones

If even strandtest won't work, try running a test sketch on the esp from adafruit.
