I have a 6000K COB strip light I am trying to dim. Could someone please explain the controller I need to use to interface with the WLED app? The tape is 24v and I already have a power suppy.

Any WLED compatible PWM Analog controller should work.

Like this one: [Amazon.com : ESP32 PWM WLED LED Controller 5 Modes in 1 DC 12-24V WiFi Wireless App Control Easy Wiring DIY Static Dynamic Mode Lighting For Analog RGBCCT RGBW RGB WWCW CCT Dimmer Strip Light WLED Pre-installation : Tools & Home Improvement](https://www.amazon.com/Controller-Wireless-Control-Lighting-Pre-installation/dp/B0DP9H9WCL)

if I am reading that right those “small ones” say “digital controller” which is not the LED type you show, that is a so called “analog strip” that requires a PWM analog controller.

Based on the led tape I showed above and using the controller that was suggested above, what should the settings be in the controller in order to dim my led tape?
