To date I have custom built my own hardware to control addressable led strips using ESP32 boards. This products makes it simpler to setup new strips and while the case may be less visually appealing than my custom solutions, it is indeed much easier to get to a working led strip.While I am not a fan of the WLED UI, I am confident it will get better of time given it is now part of the Home Assistant family (Open Home Foundation).In case it is not clear to some, "UART" refers to the fact that there is a micro USB port inside the case to make it easier to flash the ESP32 with WLED, ESPHome, or other.I have not traced the pin holes but I am guessing those can be used to extend functionality as they will likely head back to the GPIOs on the ESP32.One thing I noticed is that the ESP32 is only held up by flexible pins on the left. There are 3 non isolated caps under the board so if you push down it can easily make contact. I can't see if there is any risk of shorts in the event this is installed somewhere with lots of vibration but it is easy to put a small piece of double sided sticky tape to prevent the risk entirely.

Would work great if it didn’t crash all the time. I’ve had many other WLED controllers that work great but this one drops the WIFI every 5-10 minutes

Does not connect to the home Wi-Fi or Bluetooth on my phone. Tried several times until I just gave up.

The media could not be loaded. Simple, compact, and easy to deploy. I'm using these controllers throughout my shop for different aesthetic implementations. Most recently, I wrapped an ugly support column with addressable lights, some acrylic panels, and then used these controllers in a mirrored setup to create a cool diffused effect. I don't really care for any of the sound-reactive effects, but there are plenty of stock WLED patterns and pallets to choose from to keep things interesting.

These things have been installed in High Heat situations. Been left on for entire days in the desert. It's taken a lot and never failed.It works. Perfectly. Good job ! I bought 4, and all are still perfect.My only wonder is why it seems to revert to base effect on WLED momentarily. But I don't know if that the device or WiFi or WLED.

First item was defective; in fact, the guts of it was a cheaper version of the controller. When you get yours, make sure it is what you purchased. Once I got the ESP32 version I order, it worked exactly as I expected.

Easy to setup and integration with Home Assistant and Alexa
