Thank you for making a video, a simple use this board for your Jeep would have been enough. Lol, however I really do appreciate it. And I am sure if others have the same question I did, this video helps.

Thank you Chris.

I have learned so much from your installs. Is there anyway we could get light options for bikes, motorcycles, or cars?

Excellent tutorial, quick question I’m wondering if there is a way to make this lights and module to work with Apple HomeKit….!

Hi @ChrisMaherDIY - Firstly, i really love watching your videos to see what can be done with LED lighting on a budget. 💥💥 Question:- If i bought a Govee RGBIC led rope light, would i be able to connect a WLED module to it and get more out of it? If not, when do you recommend using the WLED module? Cheers Bud.

Another great video! question though.. re Sound Reactive builds.. Have you experienced any issues with your sound reactive set up ? I recently followed your tutorial on how to set up ESP32 with sound reactive, used the same components, however, every now and again the sound reactive portion would stop working after a power cycle, and the only way to get it back is to re-flash the ESP32? it's so annoying. I can't find any forums that can explain why this is happening. Any thoughts? cheers.

Chris, you have great videos! Bless you! I am having problems staying connected to WLED on ESP32 to power my permanent outdoor lights. That brought me to this video but this isn't a solution for that, I don't think. The power supply is 36 volts. Boy, I feel like I'm so close. I thiink I'm not alone in this problem. Any suggestions would be amazing. Thank you!!!

Question: I want to build a stand alone Christmas display that is automated. it will be a snow man waving. what kind of controller should I use that I can program and use for just this prop?

Nice idea actually. Thx

Hello sir, will any of these work on LED well lights?. Also would I be able to add it to WLED? I want to also add my three LES strips.

great video as always Chris, are these plug n play controllers available in the uk yet.?

I'm new to all this but thanks to you I have decided to go this route instead of spending hundreds on boxed LED kiys, so Thank You So Much!! BUT... I'm having issues with WLED showing my lights offline at times and I don't know why. So when I saw this video, I was excited because I figured this was my pathway to a solution. I went to my Wi-Fi settings on my phone, but did not see WLED-AP listed. I then went into configuration within the WLED app and changed the option under the WLED-AP Always instead of Disconnect after boot. I was then able to see WLED-AP as one of my Wi-Fi networks, but it keeps trying to connect to the previous Wi-Fi and doesn't seem to work. So while I was excited to be saving money, and FINALLY was able to figure out how to get wled on my esp32 and turn the lights on, I'm kinda discouraged now because I have 11 five meter rolls just in and need to splice and run everything, But I'm afraid of these issues l connectivity issues continuing. Please please can someone walk me through resolving these issues. 🙏

I'm new to the LED / Smart Home space, and want to integrate multiple LED controllers in HomeAssistant . Wondering if there is any Zigbee/Zwave options for WLED + ESP32? Any limitation (other than home modem specs) when running mulitple (5+) ESP32 devices connected via Wifi?

Hi Guys, Hi Chris, I am currently in the final planning stages of my LED project. I have just reached a point where I don't know exactly how to do it and if it will work. So I wanted to get your expertise on board. The idea is that I lay 0.5 meters of Gove M1 (60 RGBIC / meter) LEd strips in a wooden acoustic panel. A total of 8 of these little strips. I wonder if I can now really just string T pieces together and it still works. I have also considered using Wago terminals instead of the T connectors. Best regards Auer Bernhard, a big fan

You f*cking rule, dude. Thank you so much

This is exactly what I was looking for thank you! If I get rc battery because there is no power am I able to hook up 4.7v rc battery straight to the board?

@ChrisMaherDIY could you make a video or provide feedback here on why you are not using level shifters on your board setups ? I hear/see a lot of youtubers add level shifters, so was just wondering why you don't use them ? Keep up the good work, awesome videos !!

awesome. I didn't know it broadcasted it's own AP to connect to. Instead I configured a hotspot on my phone with password, then configured WLED to that.

But the output of the ESP32 does not support 5V, so how do you use it directly to turn on an LED strip that seems to me to consume 5V...

is it possible to hook up multiple different led strips on different pins on a ESP8266 Board? also love the vids!

Can we write code for wled?

In time for Halloween... 🧛‍♂️

The domestic automation wled pcb is not available i believe to purchase is that right

your device connected by wifi - as well as esp with wled 🤣🤣🤣

Como evito que me cambie la IP A CADA RATO uso siempre la conexión MobileHotpot y volver aaconfugrsr de animaciones segmentos etc

Thanks a lot, you skip the first led and say something like data booster? It’s recommended for all wled projects? What is the benefit of it?

How i can reset WLED -AP Wifi Pass ?

Sir how can a add custom user contributed presets

Hey Chris, is there a way to sync 2 lights (2 esp) when you don't have wifi?

There’s several options for WLED on Amazon

Are there ESP32's that can connect to Matter or will that never be possible?

Day 248 of waiting for WLED through Thread.

too bad i can't order this in europe (the Domestic Automation wled board)

Why do you buy higher a Power supply when you Limit it lower ?

Domestic Automation LLC Wireless Smart LED Controlle -> currently not available says amaz. .. out of stock...

your links to things are going to the wrong things......been trying to do this for years now to no success with the esp32 boards.....had two now and never work or program completely useless.....but when I saw the new board I wanted it straight away but it's the wrong thing.....thank you for your cool video though 👍

Even if you aren't connecting to home wifi, you are still connecting to a wifi networkput out by the device. To you have any info on doing this process.. actually without wifi? I love the rest of your videos, sorry, this just makes no sense.

Jesus Loves You! Seeing that, was my FAVORITE part of the video! 🙏🏽❤

my heads going to explode, this video clearly shows setting up WLED using WiFi despite the title saying No WiFi. surely the title should say setting up WLED without a wireless router.

nice vid

do you realise you are using wifi and the whole video is about not using wifi?

BS product!
