I’ve got a cheap ESP8266 controller and WS2821B LED strip which I’m going to connect to a jailbroken LG TV to replace my old Govee TV backlight. I might have already damaged the strip and that ESP8266 might not be compatible with high bandwidth firmware. Fun!

[edit] I did it! Need to cut it, add corner wiring and tape it to the TV but all technical obstacles are now solved. The chip was fine but it couldn’t negotiate high speed connection without using rather quirky setup, otherwise it’s just crap itself.

sounds interesting, only thing I know is LED needs direct current, not alternating current … and by pulsing current on/off you can dim the lights? About color I have no clue though.
