I have bought a WS2812B ledstrip (5m 30leds/m) and a 5V10A psu. During my first test my lights (well at least the first few) go crazy.
I also notice the PSU make a chirping cricket noise and the green led is not stable. Nor seems the output voltage to be stable.
I make a quick video:
Am i doing something wrong or do i have a faulty psu ?
This relates to supporting openHAB how?
This is an openHAB forum not a generic Home Automation one.

Some power supplies require a load to function properly.
Some power supplies require you to connect a voltage-sensing terminal to the supply.
This is not an openHAB question.

Turn it off and put it in the bin.
Anything electrical making that kind of noise is DANGEROUS
