Happy Pi Day to everyone. In this video we go behind the scenes of our first attempt at a house light show in 2021. The show is running off of 2 $15 WT32-ETH01 microcontrollers running WLED. We showcase a few additional features like home automation and delay timers. We had a lot of trial and error, but overall came up with a decent first year run.
Lots of things slowed us getting this out. Smashed thumb with a hammer so please excuse the black dot on my thumb. A few weeks ago we were just about to deploy this video when the hard drive crashed and became inaccessible. Lots of rework 😑 Ah well...
Links to the hardware in Amazon are below. One thing to note is the WT32-ETH01 doesn't have a USB port and requires a USB to TTL translator (link to one is below). I will put out another video on how to flash when I get a new HD for my computer that crashed.
The show is run off of:
-) 2 WT32-ETH01 boards running WLED
-) 3 5v 60A power supplies
-) Raspberry Pi 4B with FPP
-) 2400+ 5V bullet pixels
Enjoy!
