In this video, I show you how I built my RGB LED tube lights. They are low cost, have tons of effects thanks to the WLED software, and can be controlled over WiFi. I set them up to be controlled in the Apple Home app through Home Assistant running on a Raspberry Pi!

This was a fun project but there were some tricky things to figure out
I recommend using an ESP32 Dev Board with a 5V regulator so you can power the board directly from a 5V power supply which you will need anyway to power the LED strip.
