Powering & Programming 900 NeoPixels/WeMos?


hello everyone,
i new community , neo pixels. bought quantity of 3 of these @aliexpress

and wemos https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/b01ixbwh9y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=utf8&psc=1

and lastly power supply https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/b005t6tlmi/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=utf8&psc=1

i wanting set these lights in room relaxing vibe can control using phone via wifi.

however, have been doing research on powering these lights not going possible daisy chaining them. due high amperage need.

now, let's math each strip of neopixels, 1 led strip 5m long, 60 leds per meter. 1 strip equals 300 leds, (300 leds x 60ma if whites on / 1,000 = 18amps
what left with? 3 strips daisy chained 54 amps! plus need spit out 5v.

what ideas wiring , power methods? need random cables going on walls leds begin or end? data transferred daisy chaining 15 meter leds?
