Data wire setup for WS2812b array board

There is clearly no point whatsoever in running a second light gauge ground wire with the data wire, it will by definition, do absolutely nothing as it will not be carrying any significant proportion of the current. :roll_eyes:

The data wire must run with the ground wire; if you run a suitably heavy power and ground, just ensure the thinner data wire is lashed to that cable. Nylon fishing line is very convenient for lashing.
