  1. I ended soldering the last pcb with leds from the same batch.
    As expected, no more brightness discrepancy. It was worth it \o/

    The code will wait :)

  3. I change the failing led, and some other but I still had some bad 'twinkling'.
    I suspected (and hoped) the cause was bad leds as I had salvaged them from the previous prototype, they might have suffered.
    So I solder another one with new leds, and no more twinkling. It works just fine!

    (there is some brightness difference, but is because there is two kind of chips, the newer are brighter).

    I'm really happy with this. I'm going to write some code to display stuff then It'll be time to think about the real version :)

  5. I ended making a smaller version, to lower the cost of a prototype I'm not completely confident I'll be able to build.

    Also that version is symmetrical, I like it better :)

    Next step in 3 weeks, when it'll come back from the manufacturer :)
