No worries. If you need any further details, feel free to ask.

Haha! Wearables? I got your ultimate wearable right here. Made this for my 12y granddaughter for Halloween: Here is a video: Halloween 2016 Disco Ball - YouTube I am trying to convince her to wear it out in the cold for Christmas to hand out candy canes. It was 9f outside on my way to...

When you get to production on these, let me know if you need anyone in the US to test them and make sure they work on US power ;) <wink> As for the resistors, yes, I believe they are present. Here are photos of some null pixel boards that I have on hand. Maybe you can glean some info from...

I certainly can. I will give you the basics and if you want anything more detailed, feel free to ask. The tree is 24 strands, each with 60px. Its 12v square node pixels mounted on boscoyo strips. Its wired in 3 groups of 8 strands in each section. One data feed from an F16 for each section...

Well, if we are allowed to wish..... How about an ESPPixelController? Not listening for e1.31 data on the WiFi, but rather listening and pretending to be a FPP slave with a uSD card to hold sequences. That way its wireless, tiny and does not require flooding a wifi with channel data. Only...

You know, I would (and this is a personal thing), I would rather you whip up a 2811 board that had the FETs on board as a stand alone board rather than marrying it to the ESP. Why? Well think of it as a mega pixel driver instead of a ESP with FETs. If that board presented itself as a pixel...

With a 16 strand 180, that could be true. My 24 strand 180 has no splices at the bottom. Connectors plug into each other both top and bottom. Of course I planned it that way :) My strands are 50px strings with 10 added to make 60. When I made up the strands, the ones going up had the 10...

Thank you. Much appreciated. The bad boys was a spur of the moment thing. The granddaughters like that song a lot and was trying to figure out how to roll it into Christmas. They didn't get the "Berry" and "Archie" references but thats ok. We got it. Right? Berry == RaspBERRY Pi and...

Heh, think that affects a lot of people about this time of year ;) Usually either causes or produced by... panic!

In your case, they aren't Christmas lights. They are birthday lights :) Now thats sorted.... Generally the megatrees are wired zig-zag. One going up, then back down. This repeats across the whole tree. Most people start the first strand at the bottom but thats not a requirement. Its more...

Group buy AFAIK is the only way to get them. Short of finding someone selling theirs that is. As I said, no disrespect intended. Was just curious if you were just re-making them for down under or changing the design up a bit. You mentioned changing the orientation of the ESP01. If you are...

No disrespect intended at all, but why re-invent the wheel? Is there something lacking in Shelby's design? If I am not mistaken (and I could be), I think Shelby has the designs available for everyone.

I have 4 of them built. Bought mine as bare boards and soldered the SMD stuff myself. Mine are v1 boards. They accept both 5 and 12v input and have a jumper for voltage selection. Here are my boards: I don't have them in the display this year. I plan to use them to drive some color wash...
