WLED Button and Luminous Rocks (ESP8266 Arduino DIY Project)

This video shows an idea for how you can build a custom button to control your WLED lights and create an awesome gaming controller holder for your desk. The design uses some transparent rocks as diffusion with a 3D printed controller holder and button grid. The firmware used for this project is WLED which is programmed on an ESP8266 Wemos D1 Mini microcontroller.

Very cool setup. It made me think of a 70's dancefloor, with illuminating tiles.

[@ChadKapper]

Highly inspiring! Keep sharing ideas like this!

[@PrismEMP]

Really cool video keep it up!

[@rachaelb9164]

Ooo this would be really cool with a bunch of tumbled clear agates.

[@mikekornikh]

You gave me so many new ideas and project inspiration with this video. Gotta buy more led strips and d1 mini boards 😂

[@Electriangle]

I love to hear it! I actually bought another three more of these led strips after doing this one. I’m always keeping a stock ready for whenever a project inspiration strikes 😄.

[@artbear5653]

Where did you order the pebles?

[@Electriangle]

Temu. You can also search "glow in the dark white pebbles" online and probably find similar from other sellers as well.

[@MARK2580]

beautiful, but completely pointless, takes up precious work space on the table, and the monitor should generally be on a bracket

[@Electriangle]

At least it’s beautiful 😁. I don’t expect most people to have my exact setup, but hopefully it can be an inspiring concept for other LED project ideas. Also, you wouldn’t be able to see it from this video, but I actually have the equivalent of three desk spaces in my room. So work space is not a problem for me 😉. At some point I’ll post my full desk setup to show each of my DIY projects together.

That's his table and he can do whatever he wants with it. Also not all PC monitors come with VESA brackets.

[@brandongroves4465]

If it was pointless, why would he have it on his desk?

[@artbear5653]

Pointless? the only pointless thing here is your comment, and what workspace would you have under the monitor?
