ESP32 based WLED Controller Wi-Fi to drive adressable LED strips like Neopixel/WS281x/SK6812/WS2801/WS2815/etc usingWLED.Version 0.8 now can be used with 5Vand 12V strips without the need of external dc-dc converters and we've updated the microcontroller from an ESP8266 to an ESP32. Therefore handling of more LED's and multiple strips are no problem. Seehttps://kno.wled.ge/features/multi-strip/

There now is a button (IO15) which can be freely confirugred via WLED. Seehttps://kno.wled.ge/features/macros/#buttons Theoreticly you can also use the flash button on the PCB as an input (IO0).

As of WLED 0.13 the first button can be used to do a factory reset by holding it for longer than ten seconds.

• Wiring Example WS281x/SK6812 5V/12V/24V
• Wiring Example WS2801/APA102 5V/12V/24V
• Wiring Example WS2815 12V

More documentation could be foun in thecod.m Knowledge Base: WLED Controller.

You can buy it at our webshop:

• WLED Controller (Wi-Fi) (English)
• WLED Controller (WLAN) (German)

The board comes preflashed with the current version of WLED, but can be used with any firmware you like, as we've added a flash and reset button for easy flashing.

It can be used with nearly every type of adressable led strips: WS2812B, WS2813, SK6812, APA102, WS2801, LPD8806, TM1814, WS2811, WS2815, GS8208.

Please read theAdafruit Neopixel Uberguide on how to work with Neopixels. Antother good starting pint is theWLED documentation.

Based on the LoxPixel-idea from Dennis (www.unser-smartes-zuhause.de) we've discussed a board layout and in the beginning developed our own software based in Dennis' initial code.In the end we've settled to expand the absolutely astonishing WLED project with the needed features for Loxone. In Version 0.11 WLED can now understand Loxone values.
