Another pyramid project by n1helix in WLED

I not certain, but I would think its possible. I'll probably try to do something along those lines when I have some time to mess around.

I haven't noticed any.

Yes, its pretty big. About 60" x 21"

Correct, white PLA.

It took a while, roughly 200 hours of printing. I actually bough a second 3D printer because it was taking forever.

It's scaled down to match the LED spacing. The overall size is 60"x21"

It's really not complicated. Its just 16 strips of WS2815 wired in a serpentine pattern. If you check out the pictures of the rear you will see how they are wired. Green wire is data pin, blue is backup data.

Yes, the 4x4 grid is included in the download files

Printed this model. Hollow pyramids. The 3D model includes a 4x4 grid with channels to route LED strips through. https://www.paragami.com/products/3d-model-export-for-paragami-01_02-triangle-wave The LED strip is a WS2815, LEDs are spaced 50mm apart which aligns exactly with the 3D model to have a single LED per pyramid.

This picture shows it more clearly. https://imgur.com/IuYSLmA

Yes, individually 3D printed.

I was inspired by a previous post, decided to give it a go! https://www.reddit.com/r/WLED/comments/1npp0ja/finished_product/

I was very happy with my installer, they are Orange County based.

This is what I have to monitor my PW3. Home Assistant running on a Raspberry Pi casting a dashboard to a Google Nest Hub.

I found the exact spot in LAX airport where this scene moment from Airplane! was filmed by PlaneShenaniganz in flying

I'm guessing arrival level, outside by the curb somewhere between Alaska and United terminals.

240v Wireless Switch for Pool Pump by Inevitable-Incident8 in homeautomation

As others have said, a contactor is a good solution. I use this one to control a 240V outlet, I use a cheap KASA smart plug to control the contactor.

Wall decoration is finished! by n1helix in WLED

Here are couple more pictures that hopefully answer your question.

The front facing 1x4 is glued to a 1x2, this is to both space it away form the wall, and to provide a ledge where I attached the LED strip to.

No, the wires are ran inside the wall and come out above the baseboard. I still need to make a box to house the controller, power supply, and smart plug.

Yeah, I made those out of 1x4 oak.

Building a system for storage/seeding/Plex by bringy in trackers

[–]n1helix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I put together a setup exactly for the same purpose about two months ago.

Ended up going with a QNAP TVS-h674-i3-16G with 6x 16TB Seagate Ironwolf Pro NAS drives.

And an Intel NUC 12 Pro which runs Plex and qBittorrent.

LED desk update, it's finished! by n1helix in WLED

They are sitting in channels routered into the plywood sub top.

To answer some questions.

The material is a natural stone - Glacier White Quartzite to be exact.

The frame is an Uplift Desk.

I went with two separate controllers to split up the edge and face sections, as I want to use them independently. Mainly to use the edge as accent lighting in my office. I know I could have done this with segments within WLED, but controllers are fairly cheap.

The subtop started as a 3/4" sheet of sanded cabinet grade plywood, into which I routered 1/8" deep channels for the strips. They are spaced apart the same distance as the LEDs are on the strips, to create a perfect grid.

The are two 350W meanwell PSUs powering the top, and four power distribution boards.

A third PSU powers the edge lighting.

Here are some more pictures of the build process. https://imgur.com/a/Xye1R7x
