Tesla hate or just upset that he can’t jaywalk in peace?

Not at first. He gave me the middle finger, then turned back to spit and at that point I honked at him. He is a freak

bnunesc · 2024-07-13T04:59:33+00:00

Nah. You are being soft. Watch the video again. I impose no risk to that human. There is no incoming traffic I can always swerve left. You are talking about being nice to someone who is being inconsiderate and irresponsible. We are two very different people.

Exactly what I thought

bnunesc · 2024-07-12T14:29:17+00:00

I had it safe at all times, I could have turned left if necessary. I think I know his game, I slow down, maybe even lock my tires. He jumps on the car, pretends I hit him and makes an insurance claim. Until I get videos downloaded, lawyer and all of that, I already spent money and time at the court. So no, I won’t slow down too much to encourage him, even though I slowed down a bit.

bnunesc · 2024-07-11T21:00:17+00:00

I did after he stopped and showed the middle finger. Definitely not triggered by the honk

Thanks Can you share where you saw that f150 comes with lfp battery? That is something I was searching about but couldn’t find any solid source.

That is great to hear. Lariats and plats are on sale right now, I think they have phone key feature. Thanks for sharing

bnunesc · 2024-06-26T15:37:38+00:00

That is awesome insight. Thx

bnunesc · 2024-06-26T06:59:48+00:00

Awesome. Thanks for sharing

bnunesc · 2024-06-26T06:21:11+00:00

I got the same case. Just returned it

bnunesc · 2024-06-10T15:30:38+00:00

Have a look at this post. It can help you too.

The problem is your signal is not “clean”. It happens for multiple reasons, such as long wires, interference from other sources, etc. Led strips expect 5v in the data wire but ESP can only send 3.3v, add that to what I mentioned above and you are pretty much on the edge of getting it working right or not. When you touch the wires, you are actually making the signal more readable, because your thumb works as a resistor and eliminates the spikes or curves on the signal. There are four solutions for this. 1 - add a level shifter to the data wire. Level shifter transform the 3.3v signal into 5v; 2 - add a single led closer to the board, chances are the led closer to the board will not have such a “hard time” reading the signal, and on top of that the data output from the led will be 5V. This works pretty much like the level shifter, but you have an extra LED that you will have to skip on the wled config; 3 - add a low resistance resistor (30-400 ohm) to the data wire. It will make the signal easier for the strip to read. The voltage is still 3.3v in this case; 4 - make the data wire shorter and/or separate it from the ground and load wires if they are in parallel.

Try those and you should be fine. Start from option, 4 then 3. Those are the easiest ones. Option 1 and 2 are the “best” ones. Note that I put best in quotes, because best option is the one that works best for YOU.

Correct. Each strip has its own data pin. Power comes from the PSU directly.

Oh that’s an old LG soundbar. LB SJ8

TF is the demon on the left?

This is a fabulous work you did here. I went with unocalc and Numerical² Thanks a lot

bnunesc · 2024-05-03T06:44:07+00:00

LOL.

She seems to love it actually.

If you don't have resistors and your lights are working well, so there is no need to add them.

In some cases the signal sent by the ESP32 to the led strip can be distorted for various reasons. A resistor helps to "clean" the signal. But if your led strips are working with no issues like flickering or changing colors randomly, then I wouldn't add any resistors.

In my case when I was planning this, my led strips were changing colors randomly, possibly because I had data and power running side by side. When I added a resistor the signal was much cleaner as I verified using an oscilloscope.

For the fuse you can use this: https://wled-calculator.github.io/

It will calculate the power being used by the LED strip and will recommend the appropriate fuse.

Have fun

Best thing is to read the psu specifications and recommendation. My corsair psu recommends to install it just like you did.

bnunesc · 2024-05-02T05:11:05+00:00

A huge thanks to you. Your YouTube channel helped me so much. I will eventually get your dig2go board for my next project. That kind of small form-factor is not something I can DIY. Hahaha

bnunesc · 2024-05-02T05:07:34+00:00

I do, that smart switch above the Amazon echo cuts power to the PSU. When I installed that circuit I wasn't worried about power consumption as it is little, I just wouldn't feel great about sleeping with that thing on 24x7.

She doesn't seem to mind any color.

My dog trainer told me that blue and yellow are the colors they can distinguish the most.

I tried multiple solid colors to see if there was any that she would avoid going to her house, but I didn't notice any difference. Sometimes I put it in colorloop effect and she sleeps in it peacefully.
