One question: what will you be able to do with the lights?

:man_shrugging: Control them from the kitchen? I have individual RGB control of each of the 100 LEDs. I haven’t got my tree yet, but they will be wrapped around the tree and i’m gonna make some different sequences of led dances. (you know like those things you get from a big box store, but they cost like 10 dollars)

I love the marrying of sight and sounds :lol:

(I used to be the kid in the clubs that was mesmerised by all the laser lights :043:)
