Normal (non individually addressable) LED strip #182

Closed ex0nuss closed 1 year ago

ex0nuss commented 2 years ago

Hi there,

is it possible to use only a "simple" RGBW LED-strip without individually addressable LEDs? It would be really nice to get blinking / color chaining lights with a spare Raspberry Pi but without the need for more expensive individually addressable strips.

Thx in advance and regards!

Hi,

In the current setup, no, it's not possible, because the GPIO connection expects the DIN data connection to the addressable LED strip.

We have no plans for supporting 2 different strip types as there are already other options available, either on Arduino, or a Pi. Unless someone else is willing to support this feature.

Thank you for understanding.

Hi,

thank you for your quick reply! I totally understand that it would take much effort implementing a different type of LED strip.

Do you have any recommendations for projects with single color LEDs?

Hi,

as far as I see, most Raspberry Pi Projects use the more advanced addressable LED Stripes. There are some simple Arduino projects. Maybe this will help you?

I'll take a look, thanks!
