Lovely build, also: great that you _showed_ voltage drop, instead of silently fixing it. Well done!

Your videos are by far the most helpful and most useful that I have found when it comes to lighting projects. Thanks for the tips and the inspiration!
Great video. Pro tip. If you use Sound Reactive WLED with an ESP32, you'll have 2D / matrix support without needing to set up a bunch of segments, throw in a digital microphone and you''ll have some really awesome sound reactive animations.
Put a big sheet of diffuser on that so that it looks more soothing
Love it! And can totally see how calming it can bee with the right settings :D
you're so great in how you present stuff and show your enthusiasm!! This got me motivated to press on with my current LED project. keep up the awesome and helpful content!
Hang a simple white fabric sheet in front of the wires and you could have a 'in-wall' lighting solution.
This was really cool, and very helpful. I've tried to make LED light fixtures for my home in the past, but had a hard time finding good material on the subject. Your LED videos have helped me a lot. I'd be really interested in how you would approach making a room light fixture.
Can you do a video on how you subdivided the LEDs into segments?

Watch DrZzs videos, he explains a lot of WLED app
That was awesome! Thank you for the inspiration. Plus, it was quick and concise and entertaining as well! Very well done! I expect you to skyrocket!
I just stumbled upon this video, as I recently installed a WLED, and I HAVE to have this wall. Great narration, very engaging, loved everything. Liked and subscribed.
You might be my new favorite KZreadr! Thanks for the tips and entertainment 👍
That's super cool. Nicely done.
man this looks so sick! Definitely staying to watch more of your videos🔥👏🏻

Very nice and informative video! I've started making lighting fx for all kinds of events and simple DIY's like this is just what I was looking for rn. Great video! Keep it up!
WOW! INTERESTING project. congratz on the completion.
Looks awesome - great job! You are very good at showing your projects and teaching in an entertaining way. It's enjoyable to watch ^_^
I'm such a fan of Micro LEDs and now doing a project with WLEDs. Thank you for your video it was good.
You had me at that bad ass halo, I've been watching all these videos, trying not to plan them all. I just thought it would be cool to find addressable rgb strip and the light controller and wire them for the halo. And while this project is unrelated it all clicked in my head while watching this. Thank you, for being inspiring.
Nice video love these ideas with addressable LED's. Especially on the cheap. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻
Very cool effects!
Awesome video! They came out great!!
Fantastic exactly what I was looking for
Looks great!!! It’s going to make a great background.

Amazing!! Q: let's say you wanted to create a beaded curtain that people could walk through, could the wires be cut and powered individually, and still run in sync?
I hope you do a video that explains how to connect your stuff to twitch alerts!
Great little video my man
One hell of a lamp . . .
You can install a program called xlights on your pc or mac and use the WLED as a lightshow is simple as adding the devices ip address to xlights and allowing WLED to recieve E1.31 or DDP protocols on the wifi.
Very interesting video I’ll definitely be using this one to reference to
Cool stuff
Look amazing!!!😊

this video is great! Can you explain how you 'sliced' the leds so that they run more in sync?
Very informative, thank you! Are you wiring the additional power right out of the power supply?
i am ADDICTED to lights. light up hair, shoes, tp roll, toilet, shower head, ANYTHING & EVERYTHING. I want to learn more.
You killed it 🔥🔥
Good project
Awesome 👍
CAn you do a video on what you did to program those leds? that effect after they were installed. Did you use wled? How did you group them, etc..
Awesome video, loved the humour. Ps, I wouldn't solder with the power running, if the led power supply is not properly grounded ( the "low voltage" ground may not be referenced to earth) you are likely to get RCD trips with residual current going between the soldering iron and the power supply. I learnt this the hard way :) (RCD trip after I blew a poorly designed power supply).
Great video, thank you
Good stuff
Hey, very interesting stuff! I'm looking into building something myself aswell and I was wondering if you are using any fuses?
Can you make a separate video on how to use segments in Wled??
Great Project! How did you divided the whole strip into individual parts in order to make the animations work?
Very nice project! Looks damn cool...Definetily going to build this soon! WLED is such an awesome software :) I already used it for some projects in the past :D
You inspire me , good video ;)
What a great video...thanks! I'm thinking of putting something like this on a fence to make a Christmas display. After the lights are strung/hung on the fence, the resulting "panel" would be 75' long and 4' tall with approximately 200 columns and 15 lights per column. The part that I'm confused about is how to program them. When they're all strung/hung on the fence, will I essentially treat them as a matrix that's, roughly, 200 columns with 15 lights per column?

I think for a massive array like that you might need some more elaborate software than WLED? Perhaps a more beefy controller, too?
I’d love if you could explain how you made the segments .. I’ve tried within WLED but I don’t think I’m doing it right
Great. I would like to make a firework e.g. one long line controlled by noise. Can I use esp8266 for this?
How did you wire the extra power wires? from where to where do they go precisely?
Hi, your video inspired me to build something similar to this. But I am confused, how did you power the 3.3V ESP8266 with a 5V power supply? Does it just work or did you use some kind of converter??
how do you map them cause if you write something onto the wall (thumbnail) either it is simply hardcoded or there has to be some inteligence
Hello Zibartas, how can I find these bright lamps with the four elements from your background which look like flowers?
You're a genius
Were you able to subdivide the segments on the app or did you have to write code for that?
how did you subdivide the LEDs into individual segments ?
Nice simple build, thanks for sharing. It reminds me of Bitluni's build, but more approachable.
very good project ....Keep making such amazing yet simple projects, Be consistent in uploading videos then after some time you will reach millions of subscriber.

This is so fucking cool. I will try creating a much smaller version of this first and then scaling up. Instant subscribe. I hope you do more cool LED related videos. Maybe a lightning cloud cieling setup?
How wide is the the wall that you displayed these on. I am trying to get a reference to determine how many lights I would need. Great project.

Those bullet pixels are mostly spaced at 10cm/4 inch spacings although if you look around on AliExpress you can find 15cm/6 inch spacing

Zibartas haha also heat dissipation would probably be an issue. “Wow that’s a very realistic fire effect! Oh wait no it’s actually on fire.”
Ahhh! So awesome!! ☄😍 I'll make you all the baked goods you want, for those lights haha ^-^
Great video! Absolutely ticked me that you never straightened the lights. They look messy lol
Can u plz tell the effects used with time ?
Can you explain how you ran power to the individual light strips? Sorry I'm electornics e-literate
looks great stud; :)😘
This channel is so underrated
Addressable LEDs in a through-hole format exist (PL9823). Why aren't there any string of these available? Like Twinkly, but cheaper. There are only these bulky ones, with a separate WS2811 chip.
Do you by any chance have a diagram of the wire connection?
question , why use 5V leds instead of 12V ? would 12V leds + power supply avoid the voltage drop ?
How many pixels can the ESP8266 run if power management is done correctly? My plan is running (3) 5 meter WS2812b (either 30 or 60 pixels/meter haven’t decided) yet and running (2) 200 watt power supply split in the middle sharing only the ground (and data of course). Is that something I can do or will I need to do something different?

Superb! How are the balls attached? Super glue? or might you need access if an led needs replacing? I would want this in my ceiling, so I would need to attach them in some way. Another thought is using corrugated plastic sheets for light diffusion. Essentially covering the entire wall with it, creating a false panel. Certainly more pricey than balls, but I think it would look more professional? Or at least a different style of lighting because you dont see the wires and the individual lights are further diffused. I really have no experience with this, just throwing out thoughts. Damn the ideas could keep going. Installing sensors that respond the body's movement, making it interactive when you wave your arms or however those work... I believe those sensors are a thing.

They're just pressure-fit - holes snug enough to not need any glue, but i guess something like hotglue wouldn't hurt. Those are great ideas - but I didn't have enough LEDs to make it as dense as a stadium screen or something would be - so I kinda went with this organic look that let me get away with lower LED count. And yeah you could probably hack an Xbox Kinect to generate an image ;)
5:02 how do you subdevide them?
How did you wire this. I am trying to do something similar but how to wiring has me stoped. Please help
I even didn't know there are camels in Australia 😅 Cool project.
all this engineering and cosplay and not a hot air gun in sight 😂 great job all around though mate
Can I ask how many lights you did. I have a wall similar in size and do not want to over do it. I also want to use 12v led's. Have a bunch of these lights in 5v but find that putting to many together weakens the signal even with power injection.

I think it's 400 :) Yeah 12V is much easier to scale up :)

Wheres the tutorial link for the chip and the app?
Hypothetically can these string lights be placed outside for Christmas?

Some Boscoyo strips would have made this look a bit neater if you're looking for inspiration in the future :)
There's black, green and white versions of these LEDs and they basically are the same price on alibaba etc
how did you go about subdividing the leds into their own separate segments? (5:08)

Amazing video but can I see the power wiring to know how to do it
COOL
One other person mentioned it but I’ll reiterate: WLED by itself, as far as I know using it myself, cannot do what you have pictured in the thumbnail. And that was what brought me to watch this despite already knowing everything you’ve done here. 🥲 What did you use to turn them into a matrix you could draw on?
