WLED Light Controller

Description

The GLEDOPTO ESP32 WLED light strip controller comes with a built-in microphone, enabling music dynamic mode. When you play music, the light strip automatically adjusts the lighting effect based on the rhythm and sound changes, creating a more vibrant and lively atmosphere. Dynamic Modes for WS2811 WS2812 SK6812 TM1814 WS2813 WS2815 Addressable FCOB LED Strip Lights. ESP32 WLED light strip controller can be connected through WiFi and controlled directly using the WLED app, without the need for an additional gateway device. However I plan to use through Home Assistant to control liqueur cabinet lights.
