I got the little controller box open from the Wally World LED
string -- no glue so it just took a little prying.? The wires
to the LEDs were easy enough to unsolder and then connect to
my Pimoroni PlasmaStick 2040.? LEDs are clearly WS2812 compatible
thusly?the auto-start program on my PlasmaStick's 2040 ran the
LEDs just fine!!!? MORE BLINKENLIGHTS!
Let's see... the string is 5m (16+ feet) long with 50 RGB LEDs.
The copper colored wire is?+V.? Unlike the Pimoroni wired snot
balls, the center wire is Ground and the wire opposite the?+V
line is the WS2812 Data line.? Lots of fun for $9.88.? BTW,
Pimoroni's?similar?strand is normally $12.70 although it's
currently on sale for $8.89.? Still, these LED strings can be
had from your local Wally World (Wal-Mart) store or order?them
online with no waiting for an order to arrive from across the
pond. :)
