      Can't argue with you there! That is part of the reason we do these projects. Some people don't want to tackle them but still would like to see the end result. So we may have to bump this to a higher priority.

      ceiling fan in reverse on a low speed in the winter will help bring the warm air from the ceiling onto the ground, preventing cold feet and making people less likely to turn on the home heat, saving you energy. ceiling fans use a surprisingly low amount of electricity, especially on low. Clockwise in the winter, counterclockwise in the summer, for the most common blade pitch direction.

      @DrZzs  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Perhaps, but I am not sure how you would line them up. You could pick a point and have that location lined up but then the rest of it wouldn't line up. In the end I thought that was too much work for a single location to be lined up.
      In all honesty, in order to make it look better we just need more pixels per inch. The 6 pixels per inch just isn't cutting it.

What would be the advantage one has over the other, and is that why you used this specific setup building the sphere?

    2:15 The voice over says that the Las Vegas MSG Sphere has one LED per square foot. That sounds unreasonably low. The information that I found on the Internet is that the outer area is 580,000 square feet, covered in 1.2 million "pucks" containing 24 LED's each. So I'm calculating 50 LED's per square foot, or 0.3 LED per square inch.

      Using this as a topper would be great. Doesn't look any bigger than a 36" star. The electronics could then be in a waterproof case and placed on the tree pole instead of within the sphere. This would decrease the weight of the sphere. The more I think of this the more excited I am for doing this project. I just received my @mattosdesigns medium Tilt-Up Tree which will stand about 8 feet high and I think that this would be more unique than just another star. High much filament was used to print this? More than 1KG spool?@@DrZzs

    It would be great to see more effects at different distances to give people a better understanding of the visual they should expect. Perhaps something that looks more jittery when too close so it is easier to see the target viewing distance sweet spot.

      Cool idea! I'm sure you can run it off of a battery. How long??? I have no idea. Obviously it would depend on how big the battery is.

      Respectfully, I firmly believe that anyone can accomplish this! It took us numerous failures to grasp these concepts, but failure is simply a stepping stone to learning. Starting a project from scratch is undoubtedly challenging, but we've tackled many of the toughest aspects and with a supportive community, there's abundant big brains available.
      I concur that the journey from the beginning wasn't smooth sailing; it took two of us two to three months to navigate through it all. Even then, we relied heavily on our community to figure out the Xlights model.

    I think that you can get a much better result if the led stripes are black. You have too much light reflection from that white color. Older version is better in that sense.

    • @DrZzs
      @DrZzs  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, I see your point. We thought white would help reflect the light better, but I don't think we need that much reflection especially since the brightness is typically only around 5-10%. Thanks for watching!

    • @DrZzs
      @DrZzs  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Great question and yes! We just used pla, not pla + or anything special and the LED's are barely warm. The LED don't dissipate too much heat.

      @@DrZzs I was thinking ditch the strips and just make a PCB directly with the WS2812b or whatever on them. Use the PCB as the rigid part. But they probably won't be too rigid.

    • @tin2001
      @tin2001 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm fairly sure the aluminium backed PCBs like you get in normal white room LED lights would be able to be rolled (in a forming machine, not by hand) into rings... But the LEDs would need to be soldered on after rolling, and hand soldering hundreds of LEDs to aluminium PCBs would suck.
      I think I'd stick with the self adhesive flexible strips... Unless you plan to mass produce these.

    What buttons do i use for a smart home? I'm thinking right now I want matter/thread switches so I can directly use home assistant to link them to output devices without a system in between. But I also want those switches to be wired, I also want them to be compatible with future switches. I don't want to replace wires if there will be a better switch out there. I also want like half of my switches to have 4 buttons or more. I want a few to have a dimming option. I also don't want them to use wifi so I dont overload my router. Where the hell do I start. What do you recommend?
