Can we use esp8266 nodemcu instead of wemos d1 mini ?

[@JAMESDOOM22]

Hello, I'm using Wemos D1 mini and WS2811 then the LED is unresponsive. Any ideas?

[@jmclsn]

How much LEDs have you used? And worked it well without an external power supply? I heard it wouldn't but idk actually...

[@Thanks-Again]

I was just googling this specifically. Looking at the board it appears that the 5v stuff is a bit isolated from the 3v stuff, so I’m going to push my luck and see what I can get away with. At $3 a pop it’s kind of “whatever” if I fry one

[@mark47killer]

@@Thanks-Again can you please tell us the outcome of your result when you took 5v output directly from board. And how many led you used

[@easydiylab1590]

Maximum I connected 120 LED directly from the board to the wemos d1 and they have been working for over a year.

[@aaronalcantara9791]

@@mark47killer you can use external 5v psu splitting power for the wemos and the led, if you want to achieve the whitest white, use 5v 3amps :)

Still dont't get it. Where do i can assign /create my own SSID username and password on this WLED ?

[@easydiylab1590]

After flashing the WLED in the controller, you need to find an open WiFi point, connect to it and specify the mode, or it will be a separate access point, or will connect to your wifi network and then access will be by IP address that will be issued by your router.
