LED lampoon

Every year there's this thing around my neighbourhood called de lichtjesstoet, all kids walk around in a parade with simple lampoons & candle and sing songs. I wanted my kids to stand out, so I designed a lampoon powered with LEDs, controllable by Bluetooth.

To be able to build your own lampoon you'll need:

• an ESP32 (or ESP8266 if you don't need Bluetooth)
• an 8x32 LED WS2812B panel
• a USB power bank (or other type of battery)

I printed mine with glow in the dark PLA for an extra cool effect, but white will work as well. 0.2mm layer height should be fine.

There's a slot for your ESP, I use tape to keep mine in place. Connect the LED panel & you are good to go.

The parade was canceled this year (COVID) and the software I wrote is far from publishable, but you could flash WLED or the WS2182FX autocycle example to get something that will wow your kids.

This print consists of 2 parts:

• The base
• The top lid

Because the battery pack I had laying around was huge I made an alternative version of the lid with some extra space so it could stick out.
