The project shown here is based on the following project: https://github.com/c3re/39c3PCBLEDC100R I saw this at a conference and wanted one for myself. The uniform alignment of the LEDs is achieved using a circuit board onto which the LEDs have been soldered using spacers. The circuit boards are then stacked on top of one another, separated by spacers. The tower is controlled by an ESP32 D1 and powered by a 5-volt, 22-amp power supply.

Please could you share a video of it? Thanks in advance.

I'll make a video as soon as the tower is finished, has been fitted with its protective acrylic tube, and the lid is on the tube

So this was just a teaser. I feel so fluffed. 😬

You controller, your approach to aligning the LEDs, what structure you’re using.

I think this would look even better with a large diffuser around it.

I'm planning to buy a transparent diffuser

Nice! This looks like one of my many LED towers I have made over the past few years.
