+        
+        The first color in the array will be written to the LED closest to the data input connector.
+        To update all the LEDs in the LED strip, count should be equal to or greater than the number of LEDs in the strip.
+        If count is less than the number of LEDs in the strip, then some LEDs near the end of the strip will not be updated.
+        
+        The colors are sent in series and each color takes about 45 microseconds to send.
+        This function disables interrupts temporarily while it is running.
+        This function waits for over 10 us at the end before returning to allow the colors to take effect.

+        after each color is sent, about every 60 microseconds.
+        This allows your program to respond to interrupts faster, but makes it possible for an interrupt
+        that takes longer than 8 microseconds to screw up the transmission of colors to the LED strip.
+
