I’m planning a motion-based, under the bed lightning using an SSR and a LED strip. I’d like to use the solid-state relays since they do not produce any noise when switching (use case: you wake up at night to get a glass of water)
Can this not be simplified using a 5volt LED strip and configuring like so… Monochromatic Light — ESPHome. You get the advantage of having brightness control.
Since the LED strip is not RGB, I just can switch it on/off, but, I can have only one PSU to power both the LED strip when needed, and use a step-down regulator to provide 5v to the ESP module.
