So my newest creation, Top Hat #5. This one has 425 Neopixels running on an Adafruit Bluefruit Feather. Remarkably, this ran for about 7 hours on 2000 mAh lipoly battery. Most of the time the brightness is set only around 30%. I made some of the animations but also borrowed some. I can’t wait to add more animations as my programming skills improve.
Totally ace Tim. Some great patterns in there! The pattern at 1:08 did feel a bit harsh on the eyes though for some reason. I’m sure it could be smoothed it out in some manor.
Sounds like a really nice run time for that many LEDs. Fabulous.
Funny, I just finished up a LED top hat as well.
Nicely done! I have to agree with Marc - the pattern at 1:08 seems a little harsh, although that might just be the video.
Lol. Im working on redesigning my LED ties to make them more durable plus easier to remove the hardware for cleaning. Itll be a couple of weeks thou. That 3D printer still hasnt arrived 
What material is the top hat build of?
Great patterns! Is there a place where you’ve shared your sketch?
Hey, i want to have the same items for summer festvals, but soundcontrolled from msgeq7 ic (7 band equalizer) with microphone audio input. Will put a beta on github, when i get first results.
I’ve made other sounds activated projects but I always found the music to be so loud that the interactions were at max, even after adjusting the input. Love to see your results.
I like Adafruit’s ampli-tie sketch for my sound reactive projects. Then Ursula’s seashell uses FastLED and does the same effect. Just gotta change the line of code that constraints the color to shades of yellow its pretty easy. But its only for 1 strip thou
@Cristian_Martinez I made the ampli-tie and it really didn’t react well in the loud music. That was one of my first projects so maybe I need to tweak it some for it to work better.
I used a custom PCB so the MIC was different lol
Would be great to see the code for the patterns on this! Could you post them please so I can take a look at them?
