I didn't like storing the ESP32 that runs WLED in one of the hex bodies because it can make wiring harder and cause shadows.  So I designed this small box to hang below using the same screws. 

The width of the box is just right for an ESP32, https://amzn.to/3xMPXs4 and a right angle USB cable. 

There is a pocket to press fit in a INMP441 microphone, https://amzn.to/3WazCGT . It works pretty well but does induce a bit of directionality to the mic. 

For power I use this USB-C PD breakout with all the solder bridges removed so that it outputs 5V.  https://amzn.to/4cvf3L1.  The cable slot in the bottom of the box grabs onto an Anker USB-C cable well and I use this one so that it is long enough, https://amzn.to/3RVfgiu.  

I also use an Anker USBC power supply that can provide up to 3A at 5V, https://amzn.to/3XLKo7U. I am running 144LEDs and it draws at most 2.2A when fed from both sides of the strips.
