It was born out of pure improvisation — thrown together from leftover components that happened to be within arm’s reach. Think of it as a happy accident with RGBs. As such, the design is not final and may benefit from a bit of tweaking, but hey — it works, and it glows!

🧩 Features:
Powered by WLED – Full RGB control via Wi-Fi using the amazing WLED interface.
Portable – Runs off a single 18650 battery.
Universal – Designed to work with whatever parts you have lying around. Feel free to swap, replace, or hack it further.
Magnetic Mounting – A rear magnet plate lets you stick it to metal surfaces easily.
Simple Switch – On/off power switch included.
🔧 Required Components (approximate):
ESP32-C3 Super Mini (or similar ESP32-C3 dev board)
Addressable RGB LED strip (5V) – e.g., WS2812B, SK6812 (a few segments are enough)
18650 Li-ion battery
TP4056 charging module (with or without protection, depending on your setup)
Boost converter module (5V step-up from 3.7V)
Power switch (any small toggle or slide switch)
Magnetic mounting plate (e.g., from old phone holders or adhesive-backed magnets)
Wires, heatshrink, glue... the usual chaos
🛠 Assembly Notes:
The case is designed with flexibility in mind — feel free to remix it to suit your components.
The wiring is straightforward: battery → TP4056 → boost converter → ESP32 + LED strip.
Upload WLED easily via install.wled.me, select your ESP32-C3 chip, and you’re glowing in minutes.
⚠ Disclaimer:
This was a spur-of-the-moment side project, assembled from spare parts. It's very much a "first draft" and might require improvements, optimizations, or even a total rework depending on your hardware. But that’s the fun, isn’t it?
