Hi all, do you have any recommendations for multicolor light strips/controllers that “just work” out of the box with HA? I’d prefer a controller with a built in power supply.
Wifi is ideal, where it’s going I don’t think my Vera Z-wave would reach and I don’t want to get into repeaters.
Flashing with Tasmota is also acceptable, although I did pickup a Lumary set that was supposed to be flashable and the controller unit has been changed and no longer can be done.
Wled.me for the software
V0.86 (i find V0.91 to be buggy)
nodemcu for the controller
Led strips
sk6812 for separate white channel or just a ws2812b
You wont regret it
Any of the tuya based ones will work with the tuya integration, but you also have the option to change them to your firmware of choice with tuya-convert
@Harry13 Woah… that Wled looks crazy cool.
I hear ya on Tuya @jivesinger, but I prefer to use tuya-convert and we’re starting to see some Tuya devices that don’t use ESP82xx anymore and can’t be flash. My recent experience with a newer revision of Lumary strips, once Tuya flashable but no more, makes me a little gunshy.
