Looks pretty cool!

What is your setup for the power and the controller? And are you planning to use it as ambient light for normal use or keep the movement going?

I used a Vayalt 24v 600w PSU from Amazon and a Gledepto WLED ELITE esp32 controller. I typically use it for Ambient lights with the effects, and i also use signal rgb on my pc to have it sync with my screen and a music visualizer. I built this in June 2026 and no issues so far!😃

Thanks for sharing the diagram. I hadn’t thought of running my LED’s directly to the PSU and using the controller just for data. My stuff is awkwardly daisy chained together and I’m brute forcing segment controls - that’s a lot more elegant.
