Everything used in the video — in one box, and nothing to solder. Add sparkle to your fashion tech: wire up two different WS2812B addressable LED modules to an ESP32 and bring them to life with FastLED animations. Every LED is individually controllable — chase, twinkle, fade, and glow — and everything in this kit arrives breadboard-ready so you can jump straight in.
Kit Facts
Difficulty: Level 1 — Plug & Play
Soldering: None — both LED modules and your board arrive hand-assembled and breadboard-ready
Sewing: None
You'll need: a USB-C data cable and a computer
Make it pink
Classic Black — the standard 30-pin USB-C ESP32, headers pre-soldered.
Pink (limited) — a limited-run pink ESP32 with gold detailing, built on the newer WROOM-32E module, headers hand-soldered by us just for this kit. When they're gone, they're gone.
What's in the kit
ESP32 Development Board, 30-pin (USB-C) — classic black or limited pink
Neo Tester — our 8-LED WS2812B strip, hand-soldered, heat-shrink protected, and tested in Nova Scotia
8-Bit WS2812 RGB LED Ring — with header pins soldered by us, a kit exclusive (the ring ships bare when bought on its own)
Half-size solderless breadboard (400 tie points)
Hook-up wires for the circuit
Good to know
Breadboard colour may vary: white or clear — both work identically.
You'll need a USB-C data cable to program the ESP32. Many USB-C cables are charge-only and will not work — if you're not sure, grab our USB-C data cable.
