The LED strips have their own resistors on them.
Right now I have them all chained to the same power supply starting from the right side; they're a bit dimmer than I'd like overall but at least they're all a similar brightness.
But I've tried setting them each with their own (identical) power supply, and the newest set is practically blindingly bright that it doesn't look good.
