Bill of Materials
Description
Description
This modular H0 scale display case was specially designed for the stylish presentation of model railway vehicles. Thanks to its thoughtful design, it can be flexibly expanded and offers integrated, WLAN-controllable LED lighting based on an ESP32 controller. The code for the Arduino is included. The display case can also be wall-mounted using brackets.
🔧 Features
Modular Design
The display case consists of end pieces and freely combinable middle pieces (50 / 100 / 150 / 200 mm).
Integrated LED Lighting
WS2812B LED strips provide even and modern illumination for your models.
WLAN Control
Brightness, color, and on/off can be conveniently controlled via a web interface in the browser – completely without an app.
ESP32 Controller Integrated
The special middle piece accommodates an ESP32-C3 and forms the heart of the electronics, controlling the light. The complete programming code (Arduino) is included.
Plexiglas Front
The transparent cover protects the models and provides a high-quality appearance.
Vehicles
The vehicles are guided by a track groove. The internal dimensions are designed so that the models cannot jump off the track even during transport.
