Working perfectly! Light extends the #ambilight of this relatively old Philips TV. It exposes RGB data over JSON API. Corresponding areas are mapped to sections of the light’s RGB ring. These are exposed by #ESPHome to #HomeAssistant as individual lights and get synchronized 👌

367 LEDs controlled by a single #Sonoff Basic. 🥳 Integrated in #homeassistant with #ESPHome. Main light has 271 💡SK6812WWA LEDs. Ring has 96 🌈SK6812RGBW LEDs. Using #neopixel library. As you can see there is some bleeding in the main light. But it’s worse on camera. 👌

Needed a way to mount my phone for upcoming posts where I need empty hands. Some measurements, CAD drawing and 3 hours later... 📸 already published: thingiverse.com/thing:4828058

All the parts that sit inside the #GoPlusExtender. Ok, pictured the custom PCB twice and in unpopulated. 🙃 . . . #electronics #diyprojects #maker #makerelectronics #schematics #layout #soldering

From initial shape idea to the final #GoPlusExtender case. Took some iterations but now it’s a nice snap in place case 👌 . . . #3dprinting #electronics #diyprojects #maker #makerelectronics

Assembled the #GoPlusExtender. I know, soldering looks messy. It’s due to a lot of flux, I swear! . . . #electronics #soldering #diyprojects #maker #makerelectronics #schematics #layout

#sonoffbasic got a tiny JST connector put in place. 5 pins is all it needs to get a fully fledged RGBW light controller. It can be fully integrated, yet will be accessible to be programmed. #electronics #soldering #diyprojects #maker #makerelectronics #smarthome

Gave this old chandelier a new life by replacing the transformer with an LED power supply and adding a Zigbee switch relay for remote control. #diy #electronics #smarthome #homeassistant #lamp #zigbee
