EVO 12mm Pixels by Mattos Designs | 12V WS2811 | Ultra-Efficient | Ships Now
The EVO Pixel exists because we got tired of fixing the same problems every season.
These aren’t just another 12mm pixel — they’re a patent-pending, native 12-volt design built to reduce failure points, cut power draw, and make installs lighter, cleaner, and more reliable.
And yes — this pre-sale ships now.
At the heart of EVO is a true 12V WS2811 chip/LED combo. No resistors. No regulators. No extra junk inside the pixel waiting to fail. Fewer components means fewer problems — and way better efficiency.
Power-wise, this is where EVO really separates itself:
Twelve EVO pixels use the same power as two standard 12V bullet pixels.
That means longer runs, fewer injections, and less power planning gymnastics — especially once you’re over 250 pixels and power balancing kicks in.
Physically, EVOs are built like tanks.
The board and wire assembly are fully epoxy-coated, then over-molded into a PVC shell. That’s two sealed layers protecting the pixel. The LED package is UL listed, and the full pixel string carries its own UL certification.
Install-wise? EVOs just make sense.
They sit flush in 10mm coro, have locking nubs so they don’t pop out mid-season, and the slightly tapered 12mm body with a flat back makes pushing thousands of pixels way less miserable.
They’re also lighter — a lot lighter.
A 1,000-pixel high-density prop built with EVOs weighs over 11 pounds less than the same prop built with standard bullet pixels.
Same brightness. Less power. Less weight. Less stress.
We’re literally field-testing these every season — and EVO keeps earning its spot.
We can handle it. We’re professionals.

This isn’t an “upgrade” because it sounds cool.
It’s an upgrade because it fixes real problems.
