Alexa RGB LEDs (WS2812B) Rainbow Light With 3D Case
In this project, we will connect a programmable RGB LED strip to the Lolin NodeMCU V3 board and program it to show rainbow colors. We will also create a 3D printed enclosure to make it wall lamp.
Supplies
1) Addressable RGB LEDs (WS2812B)
2) Wemos D1 Mini (or any other ESP8266 Arduino board)
3) Dupont and USB cables
