This video is a step-by-step guide to setting up your first #WLED project. I'll tell you which #LEDstrips to choose, recommend a controller that is plug n' play, show you how to choose a power supply, and then integrate it into Home Assistant. No need to be super techie to set up WLED! Time to move on from Smart Life and Magic Home LED setups and head over to the bright side! I hope this video is helpful for anyone who has been considering WLED for their #smarthome but hasn't tried it out yet!
Thanks for watching!
