Huge fan of WLED here.
- I wanted a semi-permanent lighting fixture for Christmas, but something that would work for other holidays as well. I took a bunch of bullet-style leds and inserted them into holes I drilled on a piece of material that matched the gutters. Mounted them just underneath the gutter, you don't even see them unless you're looking for them. "Hanging" my xmas lights outdoors means I hit one IOT button that turns on the power supply, then I can navigate to the private IP attached to the strand. The interface is easy enough that the kids/missus change the lights whenever they feel like it.
- Two years in a row now for Halloween, I used WLED for my pumpkin carving. Carve out the inside, then drill evenly-spaced holes around the pumpkin and insert the same bullet-style LEDs into each hole facing the outside. Wifi-enabled pumpkin. The neighborhood kids call us "the house with the UFO pumpkin that gives out full-sized candybars".
- bukka 5y agoCould you clarify what bullet-style LEDs are and how do they look?
- rhd 5y agoI think probably something like these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AG923GI?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01AG923GI?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_... I know a lot of people use them punched through maps, for live METARS displays
