WLED power limit for FCOB strip (lemmy.world)

Pardon a WLED question in the Home Assistant community, but I was unable to find a WLED community in the fediverse.

Regardless, I have this 720 LED/meter FCOB strip, which is 24v strip & I'm trying to figure out what to configure the "LED voltage (Max. current for a single LED):"

Since it's a 20IC per meter & they claim 21watts per meter that comes out to ~1w per IC. But I'm unsure how that converts to mA like WLED is asking for.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated 🤠

It's near the current limiter setting, it's in 0.14.0-0.14.4 at least (Sample size two boards, one that needs updating). It's how wled estimates how much current each LED takes
