The Cosmic Pro-Series Baldrick17 is a ready-to-run, prebuilt 17-output pixel controller for larger xLights/FPP displays. Built around the Baldrick17 controller board, it combines 17 xConnect pixel outputs, dual Mean Well 12V power supplies, dual Ethernet network connections, three externally accessible Turniput inputs, and a Boxco P-Series weather-resistant enclosure in a complete finished controller.
Each controller is assembled, wired, labeled, and tested before shipping.
- 17 xConnect pixel outputs — up to 750 RGB pixels per port at 40 FPS
- 12,750 RGB pixel controller data capacity
- Dual 10/100 Ethernet ports for show-network connection and daisy chaining
- Supports common RGB pixels and supported RGBW pixel types, including UCS2904
- Dual Mean Well LRS-350-12 power supplies — 700 W total installed 12V capacity
- 3 externally cabled Turniput inputs for buttons, sensors, triggers, illuminated controls, and supported API actions
- Boxco P-Series weather-resistant enclosure

Product Overview
The Cosmic Pro-Series turns the Baldrick17 controller board into a complete ready-to-run Ethernet pixel controller for show builders who want a finished enclosure instead of a bare controller board. It is designed for larger holiday lighting displays, commercial installations, mega trees, matrices, and high-density addressable RGB pixel projects.
The Baldrick17 provides 17 individually fused pixel outputs, dual Ethernet network connections, and three programmable Turniput inputs for interactive display control. Dual Mean Well LRS-350-12 power supplies provide 700 W of installed 12V power supply capacity.
The controller supports up to 12,750 RGB pixels for controller data output. Actual pixel power requirements depend on pixel type, brightness, cable length, voltage drop, and display layout, so power injection may still be required for larger installations.

Compatibility Notes
- This is a ready-to-run pixel controller build, not a bare controller board.
- Use wired Ethernet for normal show control.
- This is a pixel controller, not an FPP player or show computer.
- The 12,750-pixel specification describes controller data capacity and does not mean the installed 700 W of power supply capacity can power 12,750 pixels in every installation.
- Power injection may be required depending on pixel count, brightness, cable length, voltage drop, and display layout.
- If you plan to use RGBW pixels or non-standard pixel types, please confirm the pixel IC/protocol before ordering.
Included Accessories
- Cosmic Cable ID clips
- 2 × waterproof RJ45 panel couplers
