To add some blinky lights to the 2023 Supercon badge, I prepared a resin printed frame based on the Gerber files before the event and hand-soldered 280 WS2812B-1010 LEDs into this frame during the con.
Adding 280 WS2812B-1010 addressable LEDs to a frame diffuser and hand-soldering them during the con.
Looks really nice. Congratulations, especially on the steady hand for soldering those 1010.
I have a question about the power requirement. You write you drive the LED at 25%. At full brightness, they draw 60mA. So your 280 leds at 25% should draw 4.2A (if all would be white, worst case). Do you use a LiPo that is rated at 2C continuous discharge? I assume you delive the leds power directly from the lipo, unregulated?
