It sounds right to me. I assume you’ve checked the things like (are both PSU’s he same voltage). Is the new testing string working? Or still failing?

What do the pixels do after the T? and just in-case — what is your second controller? Does it have Efuses?

100% all are welcome (from those who have never put up a light to those who have been doing it for a decade) We try really hard to have topics that cover off people of all skill levels. So some sessions will be split into beginners (or refreshers) and advanced. Some are applicable to all. Some...

I think Alan is suggesting that if you add the pixels like this (I'm sure there are other paths) then you shouldn't need any special joins. Cool mouth though. I might borrow it for a layout I'm looking to do later this year.

in my idea before the button esp wouldn’t be running WLED -- you'd run tasmota or something like that on it. And then use *that* to invoke REST API's on the WLED/ESPixelStick/FPP.

use 2 esps? One with buttons hooked to called WLED apis via http? And the the esp with an DF card ready to play fseq.

Just a thread bump and a reminder we have the planning session tomorrow evening. Would love to see you there. https://us02web.zoom.us/j/2921680254?pwd=b2haMkk3alVZbnQzWHhWMHFQWHdnUT09

We will try and make sure we stay on time this year - and make sure that your sessions actually happen :)

There are systems that will hook up to your existing lights. It’s only going to be on/off for the whole string — but can still look super effective. I know @Skymaster in Sydney does a bunch of Bunnings/etc led strings integrated into his display.

We are going to have a planning session on zoom for the mini on Friday 5th of April. If you're interested in contributing some ideas or helping out in any way - please come along to that. Friday 5th April 8:00 PM https://us02web.zoom.us/j/2921680254?pwd=b2haMkk3alVZbnQzWHhWMHFQWHdnUT09 (If...

Do you know if there’s a reason why you can’t bulk copy-and-paste?

there’s a possibility that you could open it up and find an ESP8266 chip inside that could be flashed with WLED with some very careful soldering. But I don’t think it’s likely.

So there are some reindeer models that have extra pixels for other leg positions. You can make them look as if they are running. I’m not sure what to do with your one though. I’m not aware of a good way to do it.

Far out. It’s not even dark here until 9pm. Can’t imagine switching off at 8

That was e131 over Ethernet. FPP remote + SD card makes a lot of sense for these (assuming your board has an SD card which mine did not)
