- If you want to get really crazy, hackaday demonstrates how to power 1000 NeoPixels with the Arduino's limited RAM.
- Why not bring your visualizer along with you to a music venue? Mark Easley over at hackster shows us how to integrate some LEDs into your clothes.
- Of course, if you are going to wear it, you may want to consider some portable sources of power. Check out the Sunny Buddy Hookup Guide to learn how to efficiently charge a battery with solar power.
- Or check out the Mean Well LED Switching Power Supply Hookup Guide when daisy chaining LED strips.
