 The built-in 5V DC-DC converter is only rated up to 5A, limiting the total maximum output to 25W.
 This means you can power up to 5 m of WS2812b 30 LEDs/m strip at full brightness.
-For more, limit the brightness in WLED, or use multiple boards and chain them.
+For more LEDs, limit the brightness in WLED, or use multiple boards and chain them.

+The spring loaded terminals are only rated for 2A, with a maximum wire size of AWG 20.
+If you intend to draw more current, you can add a connection to another 5V output from the LEDs or power port.
+This is particularly relevant for re-injecting power, which you should do minimum every 5 meters.
+If you need even more current, or use thicker cables, just solder the cable directly to the pins on the bottom or on the rear tab of the barrel jack connector.
+If you need more than 5A, you are exceeding the use case of this board.
+Switch back to using a external power supply and connect the LED strips directly to it.
+You can even power the board with the same 5V or 8-36V power supply using the power port.
