Max Maass :donor:<p>Looking to install two LED strips at home. Desired features:<br>- Controlled via WiFi or <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Zigbee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Zigbee</span></a><br>- <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HomeAssistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HomeAssistant</span></a> integration<br>- RGBW strips, individually addressable<br>- Either comes with a diffusor or is compatible with standard diffusors (is "not being compatible with that" even a thing?)<br>- Length: Two strips of ~2 Meters each, ideally with a shared controller and PSU to avoid duplicating functionality, but I'm willing to compromise here<br>- I'm willing to pay a certain premium not to have to worry about all the technical details (i.e., I would prefer a plug-and-play solution to a mix-and-match "buy a controller, PSU, and strips separately from AliExpress and pray that they interoperate properly").<br>- Would like to avoid having to buy a proprietary hub to use it (zigbee2mqtt-compatibility would be perfect). <br>- Will be installed in the bedroom, so it is important that the PSU does not emit any high-pitched noise.<br>- Should be available in EU / Germany.</p><p>Any recommendations from the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HomeAsssistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HomeAsssistant</span></a> hivemind? Or should I just bite the bullet, get a <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/QuinLED" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>QuinLED</span></a> and figure out all the technical details myself after all?</p>

Continued thread
This is the @hackeriet table at the #38c3 @coldnorth assembly.
We have a string of LED pixels on the table, and an LED strip (2x 5m) hanging from a rope. The rope is tied to @bornhack 's projector screen on one end, and the far end of our table on the other.
We also have some messages printed with a receipt printer which hang from the LED strip.
Everything 12V and fully addressable, running of of two #QuinLED Unos running #WLED

This is what I am planning to use for permanent installation when they come back in stock.

Dig-Quad or Dig-Uno depending on how many lights you need. The boards are made by (but sold in the US by DrZzs). They run wLed.
Not only does wLed easily integrate with Home Assistant but if you want to do fancier light shows down the road it work with xLights too.
