[NEW] LED strips need intermediate I2C connector between Core and between each segment (?)
-
I bought a first 20cm LED strip (containing 29 LEDs) ...they work fine...but the problem is that the LED strip has two male connectors and therefore cannot be connected to the Core e.g. Port A directly but it needs an extenstion I2C adapter cable...and if you want to connect multiple strips in series that would require one of such adapter cable for every additional LED strip segment....that does not make sense to me and visually it would not be nice....why you guys didn't do the strip with one female and one male connector??

@jcabad100 I think its down to the fact that you cant get female pcb connectors and male cable connectors.
That and its down to the Grove standard created by seeedstudio
