You projects never disappoint, how you included the LED lights into your wifes idea, kudos lol, hope it passed her longterm approval. As some else pointed out too, you can use multiple strips on the same ESP32 and last time I read, some people run up to four, all on seperate data pins BUT there maybe a limitation of pixels to about 200 or so on each. Even having two strips on one board will save you a few pounds/dollars which all count, well especially for me lol.

Please use some ferrules or cable lugs when working with screw type connectors. Over time these will have a better connection because they will keep the strands in place instead of pushing them outwards and loosening the screw pressure. On all spring loaded terminals you should NOT use ferrules as they will keep the optimal pressure and have a better connection without one. Please point this out in your Videos because many take this as a guide and they should know how to do it safely. Other than that this build looks awesome. I think I will have a few projects in the future although I will use a 12V variant due to less voltage drop over bigger distances.
