Re: Controlling 12V lights via arduino

This may not be of much assistance, but you could consider wiring them to a pneumatics bumper and treat the LEDs as solenoids. My team is doing something similar to this, and we have yet to have much issue. You would have one relay for each colour, and power each as needed for different colour combinations.
