Hi all,
next year I want to kill 2 birds with one stone - my pool lights are dead and I'd like to replace them. What if I could integrate them into next years' show?! Plus, off-the-shelf LED pool lights are ridiculously priced ($400 each and I need 2), I bet I could make some for a 10th of the cost and lots of time which I will conveniently not budget for...
So anyway I would like to use a small WS281x controller that can sit with a simple on/off program for 11 months of the year, which I can control with E131 or DMX as part of my show next December. Maybe something that will run from a plug pack I can mount in a small waterproof box near the pool.
Any thoughts on such a controller that can work "standalone"? No light shows, just turn on to a preset colour & brightness or something.
thanks
