Alright, well it’s not that then! Sorry for all the questions 😅 Have you confirmed your level shifter is still working as intended? Is it feasible to remove the level shifter and try to control a short string, say 30 LEDs? Any chance you have a spare, known-working strip you could test on?

Edit: Does the mibehavior change if you lower your brightness too ~20%?
