In this third video, I’ll be finishing off the wiring — running from the mains to the transformer, then on to the controller, and finally connecting up the LEDs. I’ll also take you through some important settings in the WLED software, including adjusting the maximum amps and, crucially, making sure the Red, Green, and Blue colour channels are set correctly. It’s a vital step to get your colours looking right and avoid any strange effects. If you're following along with your own build, this is one you won’t want to miss! This eco-friendly DIY project is perfect for anyone looking to recycle and modernise old signage using WLED. ⚠️If you’re not confident working with 240V mains electricity, please consult a qualified electrician. ⚠️ ♻️ Watch as we recycle, refurbish, and reimagine this old light box into a colourful, modern LED display for the studio.
