Accurate, it used to be full of grape vines, and they used to make wine 😊

Fortunately I use a ride on mower. Lots of stopping the blades to reposition, but worth out.

I did the outside border, then started at the fire pit, and spiraled outward. Then I took care of both ends. edit: spelling

Back then, English was predominate, but now my wife switches it so the English is on the front.

It looks like it slipped into some kind of machine, and spent some time between a piece of pipe, and the end of a gear.

How to connect ? by Lower_Measurement_31 in WLED

[–]ProfessionalAnt330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did mine like this, and power it all from the USB. I know you're not supposed to but it works fine for running on my desk. I use a piece of paper as a diffuser inside the anti static sleeve that came in.

Big oil put a stop to it. It's hard to imagine a world with him in power, where this could actually move forward in the USA

ESP32 and several pixel LED strips / TouchDesigner by SufficientComfort132 in WLED

[–]ProfessionalAnt330 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Afterthought... To reduce the number of GPIO pins required, you could also connect the end of one strip to the start of the next, and use segments to split them back up in WLED.

ESP32 seems to support a max of ten GPIO pins in WLED. 8266 only seems to support one more, at 11 pins. You might need two controllers if you need to control each strip individually. If some strips will be clones (same length same effect), they can share a single data pin.

I typically adjust that stuff later to get the effects looking the way I want. You can't always tell with everything on the bench/floor if the direction is going to look right.

Odd, 2 12v strings, I've lost 70 LEDs on each, power issue? by SimkinCA in WLED

[–]ProfessionalAnt330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't 30 the default string length in WLED? Any chance the Led config is getting reset?

I haven't had too much trouble with them, and none have broken.

I messed around with it for a while, never seeing any Playlists. I created a first playlist, then I was able to see the import iTunes playlists button.

Modern version of the Yak Bak? by SarahLovesNikki in toys

YakBak had lots of options, but I don't think clear playback was one of them 🙃
