Still have to decide if i want 30/60 leds per M.
60led/m = 0,4A a color a meter.
30led/m = 0,2A a color a meter.
So 2x wifi370 should do it.

@sweebee If you need to control multiple RGB controllers, then Milight might be a cheaper alternative:
- Milight Wifi Controller which can drive up to 4 zones - costs around 22 Euros - amazon
- Milight RGB Controller costs around 12 Euros - amazon
- you may find cheaper offerings on aliexpress and such
Drawbacks compared to Wifi370
- Milight supports one-way comms, only. So, you can’t query the controller for the current lights status
- Milight only has 255 preset colors, Wifi370 claims to have full RGB (which may be a fake)
- Milight can only switch 4 zones individually. However, you can have multiple RGB Controllers per zone. You can also combine the Wifi Controller with RGBW bulbs (this what I have). Mixing different device types (e.g. bulbs and LED stripe) in a single zone may be problematic, however.
Advantages - A dedicated Remote Control is available
The Milight RGB Controller is good for 12V-24V input and a maximum output of 6 amps

@mwittig if everyone starts using only what is already integrated, then how the system will evolve? Moreover, the proposed unit you there is no remote(

@lcf_m Ok, fair enough. For Milight, a remote control is available which looks similar to what you have. For Wifi370 there is no dedcated Remote Control available Anayway, I guess, most users want to use a Tablet or SmartPhone as a sort of universal remote control for their home devices and gadgets.
