etaI had some more custom PCBs made for the LED panel, and they actually work!
this is really cool; I've ordered PCBs before, but this is my first time doing surface mount, and my first time using the RP2040 microcontroller on its own :o

great success: over the course of an evening, made the accursèd LED panels go from garbled epilepsy messes to actually nice colours :3
We also made some progress on Friday at driving the new 78x78px LED tiles with our commercial control system, but there are still...issues.
We'll likely be giving some of these away at some point. We have quite a lot of them.
We've got a lot of emails... Offer is currently paused while we work out exactly how many panels we have left. There might be more later.
Are you a hacker/maker/nonprofit in the UK? Would you like some free 64×16 px RGB LED panels? We have a lot. We need to get rid of them.

(UPDATE: offer currently paused due to lots of demand. There might be some more left but we have to check first.)
Giveaway
LED Tile Giveaway # This page lists available LED screen equipment which has been donated to our community by the manufacturer, and is being distributed for free by Limehouse Labs. Eligible recipients are individual makers, hackerspaces, non-profits, and other community organisations in the UK. This equipment is distributed on the understanding that it is not for resale or for-profit use. These are components – they are not ready to use and require some skill in electronics, software, mechanical design, and power distribution to make them work, particularly on a large scale.
