Basically, im planning on setting up the lighting for my model train to be controllable with a raspberry-pi type computer, and controlling the lights with WLED.
I cant drill any holes in the table, so i need a kind of led solution that can be hidden but can be quite bright when in one of the houses, so maybe very spaced chrismas-type rgb lights, and also follow a common standard for control with a breadboard.
I live in canada, so links to canadian vendors is preffered
Anyways, i can provide more info if needed, and sorry if this isnt a fit for this community.
til, thanks!
that part’s easy
i may not have been clear, that was the question, im not sure how to get a rgb strip with big enough gaps between the leds
edit: Can i still use WLED if i use an arduino?
WLED its built to work with ESP8266 / ESP32 So I recommend just getting an ESP8266; its the older and cheaper of the two at $15 for 5 (clone)
I was asking about RGB strip because using WLED effectively means you will be using one of some sort. I don’t think I would build it the same way but if I wanted to solve the problem with LED Strips I would get this

This strip is nice because it has cutlines after every LED (some strips have the cut lines at every 3) If you are comfortable soldering you can cut the LEDs apart and use wire to connect them together to get things from house to house
