You Pick Pixels – 12mm Bullet Pixels Custom Request
Build your pixel order the way your display actually needs it.
You Pick Pixels is our custom pixel request option. You tell us what you need — voltage, pixel count, strand count, spacing, strand length, connector style, quantity, and any notes for your project — and we’ll review everything and send you a custom invoice with the correct pricing after checkout.
This is not a normal ready-to-ship listing. This is for customers who need pixels built around their display instead of trying to force their display to fit whatever standard strand is sitting on a shelf.
Need 50-count strands?
Need 100-count strands?
Need 5V or 12V?
Need a custom setup for a MegaTree, roofline, props, matrix, or full display build?
That’s the whole point.
We can handle it. We’re professionals.
How It Works
- Fill out the custom build form.
- Tell us the length, pixel count, spacing, voltage, and quantity needed.
- Add your request to checkout.
- We review the details.
- We send you a custom invoice with final pricing.
- Once approved and paid, your custom pixel order gets started.
Please provide at least length or pixel count so we know what we’re quoting. The more info you give us, the better we can make sure the order is right.
About These Pixels
These are the highest quality standard bullet pixels we’ve ever produced — not because of marketing buzzwords, but because of years of real-world installs, testing, fixing failures, and learning what actually survives outside.
These are standard 12mm bullet pixels using the proven WS2811 chipset with a resistor-based design. They’re built for outdoor RGB pixel displays that need to handle real weather, real runtimes, and real seasons.
Same style of pixels we trust in our own shows. Same specs we trust on installs.
Built right, not rushed.
