Thanks for the quick responses, what I am most unsure about is the wiring, we have LPD8806 LED strips, and there appear to be 5 wires coming out of it. From what I can tell, there are 2 power cables, and a PWM. I'm not sure how to wire that to the Arduino, I have a few links to images of what we have.
