On the other hand I’m patiently waiting until I could buy those at almost any price :slight_smile:

I’ll see if I can setup a page on my website where people can pre-order modules for a second production batch.

Finally got this working. Very cool. Don’t know what was wrong, but I ran OpenRGB for the first time in ages and the RGB’s sprang into life. The rename script only worked on one LED strip, so I had to manually edit it.

Hello everyone!

Here is a Google Form survey to help me gauge the interest in a second batch of my RGB LED Matrix modules.

Email address to be notified if this batch ends up being ordered. I will not send you any spam or sell your data. If we don’t get enough people interested for a batch, then I’ll email you saying so. Then I’ll delete all the submitted emails.

Note:

Each RGB LED Matrix module will end up costing between $100 and $200. I have not nailed down the pricing yet. It is subject to change if the batch has enough people interested.

Btw I didn’t want to install python, and found I could copy the layout shown in video with these steps in the “Edit shape” window:

For single module, like led-reordering-script.py

  1. Click “Reset” if needed to revert to the starting default horizontal line, numbered from 0 to 288
  2. Click “ZigZag” and enter size “9”
  3. Click “Rotate”
  4. Hold the “Ctrl” key and drag and select a box around every other row
  5. Click “H-Flip” to swap the LED order in every other row.

Edit – after attempting an RGB color wheel, I realized the last two steps are necessary because the row numbering must always increase from left to right, but “ZigZag” reverses the numbering on every other row.

On Win11 24H2, I had to use the Experimental build as well. The stable 0.9 wasn’t working for me.

Version 0.9 seems to be very out of date. I still recommend using the experimental build.

Is there enough interest for this bach2?
Can we still add ourselves to it?

Hello, the batch 2 interest form is still open. You can complete the form here.

It looks like there will be enough people interested for me to order a run of 50 modules.

I can’t recall if I’ve filled out the form yet. Are you able to check for me or should I submit again and presume your form handles duplicates gracefully?

You can either message me your email address on the forum or on discord and I’ll check.
