Collecting 25years old CDs finally ended in a huge light :-)
There are tons of InternetExplorer 2.0 and AOL CDs but also all color shades of blank CDs included. (gold, green, violet, black, … ) some of you might remember.
As this light uses roughly 1800CDs it has quite some weight (27kg CDs) ! So i used a massiv stand with 50% infill. And it definetly needed a variable fix on the ceiling.
In the basement is plenty of space for a 5V powersupply and an ESP8266 flashed with WLED.
Hardware needed:
- ESP8266 WEMOS d1Mini or ESP32
- 5V Powersupply
- roughly 4m WS8212B addressable LED. I used 60LED/m 144 might be better
- 2m acrylic pipe 15mm diameter 2mm wall (this is hard to find)
- switch (https://de.aliexpress.com/item/4000452193724.html)
Setup:
Super simple standard WLED setup. D4 as data
Its quite hard to push / pull 2 LED strips trough the acrylic pipe, i used a bit of silicon spray and a thin line/rope.
Both LED strips are clued together with the self-adhesive side
