- What do you do with 1024 LEDs? Use one of my boards from www.PCBWay.com/?from=atomic of course!
I'm re-using the same PCBs I I used for the Crystal Balls - • Look at My Shiny Cryst...
This time I'm upgrading an old project from about 4 years ago - • DIY Flame Lamp
These are the LED panels that I'm using: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DEJ...
You can find the KiCad project for the PCB here: github.com/atomic14/esp32-cry...

I have never watched anything so relatable as the several minutes of struggle to fit the foldable LED sheets and diffuser into the 3D printed mounts. Thank you for not editing those out 😄
I know it can cause the lights to appear a bit dimmer, but I LOVE the look of a diffuse film applied directly to the surface of the LEDs, and then a second panel about a centimeter or half-inch away from that. Really softens the glow in a beautiful way, and sometimes I've swapped the diffusing films for the diffraction films used inside flatscreen TVs and monitors, since it's super easy and cheap (or free) to get a broken screen and harvest the films from it.
Yes - I think multiple layers would work really well for this lamp. At the moment you can still see the pixels.
Your camera shutter is likely running at the same refresh rate at the screen.
Well that was a bright Idea!
It does look great in that shade.
Yeah - it’s a nice lamp shade. Was keen to try and reuse it.
8:55 I think your 5v power injection should connect directly to all the pos/neg wires on the panels rather than feeding all the current to boards 2, 3 & 4 via board 1?
Yes, I think you’re right. I was just being a bit lazy there. I need to redo all the wires on the panels anyway as I’m not sure how good the wires are.
Regadring the CBR (Cost/Benefit Ratio)... also the classic Plasma lamps, that made the movie THE GOONIES so interesting in the 80ies, is way ahead. JMHO.
hah! Yes, we must always make a sacrifice to the PCB gods... it's nice when they accept a mislabeling rather than demand a short circuit. The flame lamp is mighty nice. cheers
I remember at the end of last century... I spent hours in finding solutions for colorful lights... at a reasonable cost.And dreamed of having the possibilty to choose any arbitrayry color... these days the worst I can think of is rainbow flashing lights... LOL³ But the LED advancements are really great esp. if you ever coded a PWM for an RGB led yourself. I did that for a Teensy based MIDI controller... RGB workd fine... just that it would distort the ADCs for the MIDI signals... BUMMER!!!
Gorgeous. Well done. 👍
Thumb up.👍
"not sure how youtube works anymore"
neither do youtube 🤣🤣
I wonder if some tie wraps around the tube might help make it more cylindrical, and manageable. nice light 2x. 👍
Yeah, I was thinking of 3D printing some rings and then putting an elastic band on the outside.
@@atomic14 bend them in the long axis , 4 x 8 vertically, 3d print internal ring
👍👍👍
I like your project... but have to say... it cannot beat the magic of a classic LAVA-LAMP that was so popular in the nineties... just some additional THC... and it was more interesting than any TV show... (>_
Where did you get the frosted acrylic sheet?
I think I got it from an art shop - it's the kind of thing they use in architectural models for windows.
@@atomic14 Gotcha ya, thanks!
What kind of plastic are you using as diffuser?

Chris, I sent a message on discord about the raspberry pi pico power supply issue. Can you suggest anything on it?
Check your messages :)
@@atomic14 ♥️
Can you make an LED Lava Lamp?
This would do that as well, just need to find the right pattern in WLED.
Blobs 😄
Can you try TLEDS ? 🤩🙏
What are TLEDS?
@@atomic14 I am making my own version of WLED, specific to LED matrix and playing gifs.
Drop a link in a comment and I’ll approve it (links normally get blocked due to spam)
I bought one of those square matrix, like 16x16 and it has never done anything but take up room, i could never get anything to run it or anything. I bought it to have 2 round red circle eyes that would go back and forth and maybe even follow a motion for my robot, just money wasted, zero online anywhere, the story of chinese electronics, never anything to help.
What's the model number?
