Summary

I was looking for a cool design combined with the some RGB goodness.And came up with a Christmas wraith populated with Neopixels.

I made the design so it can be easily printed. The led strips do not fit inperfectly because of this. But it fits, and you won't see it when it is blinkingin gorgeous RGB goodness. The strips mounts are not fixed together,because the ledstrips will keep it in place. I glued the quarter partstogether.

The complete wraith can be printed in 2 prints, but it will take 30 hourseach print. But the amount of filament is only 170 gram per batch, so 340gram in total.

It uses 65 led per strip coming at around 65 led 4 30mA = 10,4 Amps ofpower needed.

Yesterday I moved to esp32 with Wled (https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/wiki) Just hook up al strips to the same pin (gpio2 for esp32)

The default Fastled demo-reel can be used.

I hooked the 4 ledstrips up to 4 pins:

define DATA_PIN1 9 define DATA_PIN2 10define DATA_PIN3 11 define DATA_PIN4 12

And then add this:

FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE,DATA_PIN1,COLOR_ORDER>(leds,NUM_LEDS).setCorrection(TypicalLEDStrip);FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE,DATA_PIN2,COLOR_ORDER>(leds,NUM_LEDS).setCorrection(TypicalLEDStrip);FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE,DATA_PIN3,COLOR_ORDER>(leds,NUM_LEDS).setCorrection(TypicalLEDStrip);FastLED.addLeds<LED_TYPE,DATA_PIN4,COLOR_ORDER>(leds,NUM_LEDS).setCorrection(TypicalLEDStrip);

I hope this will light up your holidays! I will update with a movie, if I findout how to do this!

Can be printed without supports! All parts are the same parts, to make it alot more easy.
