Cheap grid tie solar setup (600W 3kWh/day) bitluni 2022-06-17 | I needed an upgrade for my solar setup since the utility bills got outrageous. The cheap grid tie inverter is easy to setup and saves me 1€/day now. I tested the microinverter and it's working fine making 3kWh/day with two 300W panels. The highest output I measured with my clamp meter at was 2A AC which corresponds to about 520Watts. That's nice because I didn't spend a penny for the mount. The app allows to control the output so you can limit it if you need.New merch is here! merch.bitluni.net/shopIn Germany the inverter can't exceed 600W so be cautious: vde.com/de/fnn/arbeitsgebiete/tar/tar-niederspannung/erzeugungsanlagen-steckdoseLinks to parts and tools (affiliate links):- The shop for the 700W inverters I got with app: aliexpress.bitluni.net/gridTieShop- Micro Inverter with plug and no app 600/700W: aliexpress.bitluni.net/gridTieInverter- The same Inverter on Amazon EU for 200€ amazon.bitluni.net/gridTie700- Flexible Solar Panels: aliexpress.bitluni.net/flexSolarPanelDrone DJI Mini 3 pro: amazon.bitluni.net/droneCamera and lens (4k 60fps): amazon.bitluni.net/gh5Zoom H6 Audio Recorder: amazon.bitluni.net/h6plz share :-)Github Sponsors: github.com/sponsors/bitluniPatreon: patreon.com/bitluniChannel membership: youtube.com/channel/UCp_5PO66faM4dBFbFFBdPSQ/joinPaypal: paypal.me/bitluniTwitter: @bitluniDiscord: discord.gg/MT5RbJt#solar #diy #microinverter

DIY Pocket Bike in 24h bitluni 2022-05-08 | I was bored! All my other projects end up dragging so I decided to build a pocket bike and give me a time limit and concentrate on the most important parts. A pocket bike is basically a mini electric motorcycle. This one even has a dual drive which makes it not only more expensive than needed but also insanely quick. I still didn't find out the top speed. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to brakes. Keep it safe peepz, I'm a lunatic.Here some details about the bike: It consists of two 1000W 48V BLDC motors. Two VESC-like controllers. 4x6S 6.2Ah LiPo two batteries in series for each motor.

DIY Printed Holographic Display (Lenticular Optics Explained) bitluni 2021-03-07 | This project demonstrated how basic display can be converted to display stereoscopic images that don't require any extra glasses. A simple lenticular lens can be 3D Printed using a resin based printer and placed on top the display. Several images are interleaved but only one is visible from a each viewing angle. Since the eyes look from different angles two different images can be displayed creating a stereoscopic image.Additional Information:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_lensen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenticular_lensen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractionen.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_refractive_indices3D movie shown youtube.com/watch?v=80oR2Rpni00Code bits used for this video:github.com/bitluni/LenticularExperimentsLinks to parts and tools (affiliate links):Anycubic Photon Mono 3D Printer ($200): aliexpress.bitluni.net/photonMonoResin ($20): aliexpress.bitluni.net/AnycubicResin200-560nm Protective Glasses ($7.20): aliexpress.bitluni.net/laserGlassesUV Laser Pointer ($4.30): aliexpress.bitluni.net/UVLaser405nm Curing Light: aliexpress.bitluni.net/curingLightLenticular Lens Sheets: aliexpress.bitluni.net/lenticularMy camera and lens (4k 60fps): amazon.bitluni.net/gh5Zoom H6 Audio Recorder: amazon.bitluni.net/h6plz share :-)Tindie store: tindie.com/stores/bitluniGithub Sponsors: github.com/sponsors/bitluniPatreon: patreon.com/bitluniChannel membership: youtube.com/channel/UCp_5PO66faM4dBFbFFBdPSQ/joinPaypal: paypal.me/bitluniTwitter: @bitlunireddit: u/bitluniDiscord: discord.gg/MT5RbJtMusic:Jeremy Blake - Powerup!Andrew Langdon - Keys#hologram #3dprinting #maker

LED Matrix Lamp made with a Budget 3D Printer [ANet ET4+] bitluni 2020-12-23 | This video shows a short test of the ANet ET4+ 3D Printer. It provides some cool features that allow continuing after power off and changing the filament mid-print. I tested the filament change to print a functional lamp case for a simple 16x16 pixel RGB LED matrix. The lamp is driven by the ESP8266 and WLED. It can be controlled over WiFi and used for several IoT purposes.

Starting with SLA 3D printers [Anycubic Mono/ Mono SE] bitluni 2020-12-15 | In this stream we will unbox and set up two Anycubic SLA Printers and do some experiments. Since these are LCD based printing a complete layer at a time should be really fast. I'm curios how that works and what ides you guys will come up with.

Smart Ping Pong LED Lamp [Quick&Simple DIY] bitluni 2020-09-13 | This LED lamp is a quick project that can be done within a day. Only a few cheap components are needed to create a nice looking ambient lamp. No programming is needed, only the WLED firmware is uploaded to a micro controller via a simple tool. A 3D-Printed version simplifies the build process a lot but the cardboard version is also quickly made and can be made huge in size. WLED is open source and provides many IoT interfaced including a web front end and an app that allows to control all the lamps in the local WIFI.Build Instructions: bitluni.net/pingponglamp3D Files: thingiverse.com/thing:4595868WLED homepage: github.com/Aircoookie/WLEDLinks to parts and tools (affiliate links):RGB LED Strip $10: aliexpress.bitluni.net/ws2812bRGBW Strip $20/5m: aliexpress.bitluni.net/sk6812stripPing Pong Balls $9 (150pcs): aliexpress.bitluni.net/pingPongESP32 Mini KIT $7: aliexpress.bitluni.net/ESP32miniESP8266 D1 Mini $4: aliexpress.bitluni.net/d1miniWAGO Nuts: amazon.bitluni.net/wagoAC to DC PSU with Barrel Jack: aliexpress.bitluni.net/ACtoDCBarrel5.5mm Barrel Jack $3 10pcs: aliexpress.bitluni.net/barrelJack5.5mm Barrel Jack with terminal $0.90 : aliexpress.bitluni.net/screwBarrelCheap Battery Soldering Iron $8: aliexpress.bitluni.net/AAIronMy trusty multimeter: amazon.bitluni.net/clampMy camera and lens (4k 60fps): amazon.bitluni.net/gh5Zoom H6 Audio Recorder: amazon.bitluni.net/h6Check out @DrZzs for more WLED related content.plz share :-)Tindie store: tindie.com/stores/bitluniGithub Sponsors: github.com/sponsors/bitluniPatreon: patreon.com/bitluniChannel membership: youtube.com/channel/UCp_5PO66faM4dBFbFFBdPSQ/joinPaypal: paypal.me/bitluniTwitter: @bitlunireddit: u/bitluniDiscord: discord.gg/MT5RbJtMusic:Jeremy Blake - Powerup! @RedMeansRecording Biz Baz Studio - Action TimeWayne Jones - Brain TrustThe Whole Other - The Missing LinkVibe Mountain - Operatic 3Lish Grooves - PitchQuincas Moreira - Sparse Clouds @QuincasMoreira Dan Henig - Low Life High Life @sirdannytrolls Andrew Langdon - KeysLate Night Feeler - When We Found The Horizon#iot #maker
Ping Pong LED Wall v3 bitluni 2020-06-19 | This Ping Pong LED Wall is made of large PCBs sponsored by: PCBWay pcbway.com/?from=bitluniIt consists of 1920 ping pong balls as pixels and is controlled by an ESP32. The parallel data lines allow over 74fps and a camera live feed. The panels are easy to exchange in case of failure and built in bus lines and configurable mounting plates allow to build a display of any shape. My Arduino library provides the LED driver and a graphics interface to draw and display anything.

Testing Power Supplies for LED Projects bitluni 2020-05-17 | This video shows my tests of some new power concepts for my high current LED Wall projects. I tested a two step solution from AC to 24V DC and then to 5V DC. But also a direct AC to 5V DC solution. All the supplies I'm using are without a fan but a few types produce coil hiss which I also measured.
