Outdoor rigs run near PSU limits; a full-white high-brightness scheme can brown out what a dim red one won't. Estimate draw per scheme using WLED's own ABL model (LED count from /json/info, ~per-channel mA × color/brightness):

Estimation service + estimate shown in the scheme editor and day panel
Configurable PSU budget (mA/W) in Settings; warning badge on schemes that exceed it
Surface WLED's actual ABL setting when available (controller may already be clamping, which distorts colors — worth flagging too)
