Binary sensor and wled

Hi

I use several esp32 to monitor my doors / windows status. They are configured as binary sensor input. It is working perfectely.

I have some addressable led strips and I have installed wled on another esp32 to control them. This is also working fine.

Is there any possibility to have wled installed to control 2 - 3 led strings and use 2 - 3 gpio as binary sensor on the same esp32? I don’t want to install 2 esp32 for it.

I don’t think so. But you can use esphome to control leds.

Thank you for the information. I didn’t know about the light function. It can be what I am looking for but there are less light effects as in wled. I have also to check how to synchronize multiple strips (which is very easy in wled). The final goal will be to generate a light show so all my led must be synchronized but for now I think the light function will be fine.

I played today with the light function. I can control my led strips but like I expected I am not able to synchronize the lights.
I have 2 strips controlled from the same esp32 but on 2 different gpio. I start the first strip with a wipe effect and I want to start the second strip when the last led from first strip is on. Any idea on how to do this? Is there any status when the wipe effect reach the last led? With wled it is easy to do but with esphome I don’t know if it is possible. As usual it is very hard to find the perfect solution. Either I can control the led and have binary sensor but no light synchronization or I use wled with full light control but without binary sensor…or I need 2 esp32.

Join the two led strips in software, then apply the effect to the new (combined) light entity. Light Partition — ESPHome
