Using a ESP32 controller for alexa intergration.

The LEDs I'm using are: 5m LED Strip Lights 60LEDs/M RGBIC WS2811 Light Strip

and I will be cutting and sectioning the LEDs using these. ( I have another pack of 20 extra clips coming as the wiring kit only has 10 included.)

I binned those wire connectors, they were dire. I ended up just soldering the cables manually instead.
Here is the finished result.

Thanks, I really enjoyed doing it as well. The cost savings vs a Nanoleaf setting is good, but for me the fun was the making part, and putting it all together etc. It feels really satisfying doing this.
