Hi,
Thank for the answers.
ieee488:
Why a battery?I have my 5m strip running from 5V/10A AC adapter.
maximum is every LED on.
It's for a costume so I must be able to move.
Grumpy_Mike:
Yes you made a mistake
500 * 0.06 = 30 Amps.Using 500 LEDs inside something some one is going to put their head into is way too much.
Using those strips is the right thing to do but you have way too many.
Yeah thank 30mA seems more accurate and achievable.
I say 500 but that's an estimate, because I want to do all the color with led. For the normal face all the led will be yellow

Hi,
How big is the sphere?
The sphere is 40 cm in diameter.
TomGeorge:
Have you really worked out how many LEDs will provide enough illumination.
No I don't know how many I will use.I want to be sure that it is feasible before buying the led.
TomGeorge:
Have you thought of using a semi transparent sphere and putting fewer LEDs inside to make the sphere glow?
That what I will do but I want all the color with led. So I have to cover all the inside of each half-sphere.I have draw this on paint (Best software) to show you what are my plans.
Every yellow line is a Led Strip.
