LILYGO Tally Light Box (ESP8266 + 16340 + WS2812)

thingiverse

This is a remix from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4703551 A quick Tinkercad redo for LILYGO + their RGB backpack, which makes a nice tally light for your video applications. I use mine with ATEM Mini and WLED (and a piece of Python glue running on my Bitfocus Companion Raspberry Pi). Reset and On/Off is accessible with toothpick. There's a little room on long side so that the parts can be assembled without damage. Use an elastic fabric to secure them in space (I've used piece of velcro). I've chosen not to remove support from diffuser - it's hollow enough to leds shine through and it adds to construction sturdiness. However if you remove it (small sharp ended tweezers required) light will be more even. Shopping list: - [LILYGO with RGB backpack (x4)](https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/4000429110448.html) - order both parts, you'll need to solder sockets as they came separated - [Some 16340 (x4)](https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/4000733190468.html) - LILYGO will charge them with USB - [WLED](https://github.com/Aircoookie/WLED/releases) - you'll need esptool to flash it on LILYGO - [Bitfocus Companion](https://bitfocus.io/companion/) - you'll need Raspberry Pi 3+ or 4 - [ATEM Mini](https://www.amazon.com/Blackmagic-Design-ATEM-Stream-Switcher/dp/B086R79PBC) - connected with ethernet, so Companion can control it - [Python glue](https://gist.github.com/asquelt/4f2c99b64b0b5f105c64a282fce9eba3) - i've hardcoded WLED IP in there, so please assign static DHCP for them on your router
