Re: Oh Dear. My head is spinning. HPWM RGB LEDs What to choose?
Go get you one of thes...

or even better get one of the packages that include 5 meters of 5050 RGB LED's in a strip. Amazing and fun to play with.
I just got a kit with 5M LED strip or around $20usd to add lighting to my daughters doll house. I plan on doing my own controller eventually.
The remote allows you to select any range of colors and brightness of the RGB led strip.
I popped the controller open and it looks to have a Vreg, small microcontroller, 3 driver transistors (or FET's), an IR sensor. One could trace out the schematic, burn your own PIC and replace the one on the board to get control of the code and not have to do your own circuit board.
You could also monitor the three RGB channels and see what PWM signals give which colors.
just a thought

These PIC's are like intricate puzzles just waiting for one to discover their secrets and MASTER their capabilities.
