@tomfleet@idlehandsdev There are also ones using the SK9814 controller giving you 16b/pixel and much lower quiescent (5uA vs 250uA) in a very slightly larger 1.1x1.1mm package

@ThrillScience Oh awesome! We were theorising things like that or somehow responding when the group are all together or something. So many fun possibilities!
Made these pins for a friend trip to Disneyland a few weekends ago. The LEDs are potted in resin that's tinted grey with a 3D printed border and lasts about 100hrs on a single CR2032
@bradanlane @mrtwinkletwink So for these pins the 3D printed surround acted as the wall of the pour volume and I pre-sealed them with a bead of superglue. Silicone molds work well too. Iβve also seen people wait until the resin starts to kick before pouring so itβs thicker
@Toble_Miner@Borgel Got them from amazon in a big multipack. They said they were nickel plated so I gambled and they soldered up perfectly, so I assume they are!
@bradanlane @mrtwinkletwink Iβve just been experimenting quite a bit and settled on liquid pigments but the amount needed is minuscule! A hot air gun is really useful for popping surface bubbles too. And make sure your mold is leakproof π
@highenergybeams@Borgel From my friend who wrote the FW: the scaling is 1:1. The ALS ADC result is DMAβd directly into the timer prescaler, so a 2x increase in ALS voltage causes a 2x increase in max duty cycle
@GeekMomProjects Thanks! I learnt that different colour filament multipacks are a thing! The most tedious bit was changing the filament so many times thoughπ
Before 2020, I had no desire to go to Disneyland. In 2021 tho? Heck yeah!
I couldnβt go without making 4 of these glowy hats for my quaranteam! π₯³ Made w/ @adafruit high density silicone bead LED strip (~160 LEDs per hat!) + a Trinket M0 on #circuitpython
