Hi,  
I need help figuring out what could be going wrong with using an 30 NeoPixel LED strip with JST connector on the PyBadge. I used the link below from Adafruit to test it out, but when I use the test code only the LEDs on the board work and not the strip. I made sure the PyBadge bootloader was updated, but I cannot figure why it is not working since it seems so straight forward. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
