LED Wiring Question for Our Experts!

I have lots of those type LED strips and have used them in several custom buildings and they are great, I love them and they are no brainers to use. The problem with them, well not a problem, is you are limited to their spacing where some of the ideas in my head needs a much wider gap and those strips are too wide for some other ideas like using the Nano or Pico square, flat chip LED's for headlights or taillights.
Very true that is the one real limitation, although you could use multiples if you need them spread out more I guess.

Tell me more about the Nano/Pick LED's though, those are new to me...

At the site I am looking at this picture should explain them better than I...

Choose your power supply, we have LEDs set up with correct resistors for

3 volt DC
5-12 volt DC
7-19 volt AC/DC/DCC
Wow, I love the idea of the Pico ones Smile
