Spiral Lamp | WLED App controllable

Description

The spiral lamp is a cost-effective, easy-to-build, fully addressable LED lamp and can be easily controlled and programmed via an app or browser.

Step 1: Connect the ESP32 to your computer and then open the WLED website, install the latest WLED version on your ESP. (If you have any problems, check out the first part of this tutorial)
Step 2: Slide the USB-C into the designated hole and secure it with two M2x6mm countersink screws.
Step 3: Solder a connector strip to the side with 5V and GND on the ESP.
Step 4: Place the ESP in the designated bracket and screw it with two M2x6mm countersink screws and the 3d printed cover.
Step 5: Glue the first LED behind the plastic bridge so that the LED touches the bridge.
Step 6: Wrap the LEDs tightly around the column until you reach the top. A single LED still needs to be glued in at the very top, make sure you do this in the right direction.
Step 7: Solder the top LED to the bottom strip.
Step 8: Solder the red cable from the USB socket and a jumper wire to +5V from the LED strip. Only one jumper wire goes to Din and the black cable and a jumper wire to GND.
Step 9: Plug the cables into the ESP.
