short rewiew: Stripes from BTF lightning with WS2805 works well with WLED version 15b5 “out of the box”. No color changes needed 👍  
But levelshifter to 5V level are necessary 😉

Are you suggesting an OP-Amp (OPA2107AP) as a levelshifter?

That may work, but definitely needs more circuitry than a simple 74AHCTxxx device.

A OpAmp as levelshifter ist the same, like a Porsche to get bake rolls from baker 😂  
A levelshifter cost some cents. 😅
