ExoLeaf Clock

Based on the NanoLeaf wall clock by “Projects with Red” we made a stronger and easier to handle version.

Watch that video to see how wiring and coding is done.

Video

Please note, in the video (time: 13:37) I go through and show the exact steps on how to upload and use the code for the 4-digit display. Below is just a short text version.

1. Install VSCode.
2. In VSCode, install the PlatformIO IDE extension.
3. Clone/download this repo.
4. Open the /WLED directory in VSCode.
5. There are two changes you need to make before uploading the code:
   • In WLED/platformio.ini, under the [env:esp32dev] environment, change the upload_port to your micro-controller port.
   • In WLED/usermods/NanoLeaf_Display/usermod_nanoleaf_display.h, change the ADDR_LEDS_PER_SEG variable to the number of addressable LED om this setup, with WS2812B leds I used it was 7 LEDs per digit so
     7 is the variable.

1. Now you can upload the code.
2. For the setup you need to do on the phone and how to use the usermod settings to control the 4-digit display, refer to the video (time: 14:42).

Components

• ESP32, for the micro-controller.
• 5V 4A power supply minimum. Higher Amps is not a problem.
• LED strip, the specific one used in this project is the WS2812B LED strip. Each segment has a strip with 7 leds. For the 4-digit display, you will need at least 5 meters.
• DHT11(optional), used to get the temperature and humidity when using the 4-digit display.
• Power switch, to turn on and off.
• M2 bolts, to attach the lid to the main housing part. They can be from 8mm to 12mm long.
• 22 AWG flexible silicon wires, for connecting segments together.
• DC Power Jack mount plugs
