“Perfect way of adding indicators or blinkenlights to a point. Inexpensive and easy. Also very easy to zap by plugging it in the wrong way so pay more attention than I did and plug it in with your Pi powered off…”
“The delivery was faster than expected (to Germany). I used the Blinkt! LED-Strip for my iPhone Photo-Backup Project (shoutout to Justin Pearson - GitHub: https://github.com/justinpearson/Raspberry-Pi-for-iPhone-Backup). The code was implemented in the project, so it was fine for a beginner, which I am. Big fun and a good result for me.
The LEDs Show the status of the backup process, that you can run it entirely headless and standalone in a plug and play mode..”
“Very simple to setup but very effective, I have programmed each light to indicate the status of key items on my Pi's, unfortunately I couldn't use an LCD screen and these lights with an extender but still playing around with it so who knows maybe I'll figure it out.”
“Such a superb and versatile little stick of fun! And an absolute bargain too!
Currently using with the example cheerlights code from the blinkt GitHub”
