ESP8266 powered christmas tree lights (status: WIP)

Hardware

========

![Schematic](/images/schematic.png?raw=true)

#### Requirements

 * 1x ESP8266 (D1 Mini) 

 * 1x WS2812b/SK6812 LED Strip or "_Neopixel_" LED Strip

 * 1x 74HCT08 Quad AND gate 

 * 4x 100nF capacitor

 * 1x 1N4148 diode or similar

 * 1x 400ohm rezistor

This is printed circuit preview.  

![Printed Circuit ](/images/components.png?raw=true)

The project includes the [board](/eagle/schematic.brd) and [schematic](/eagle/schematic.sch) for Eagle CAD. You may 

need to download the following library if you want to edit the cad files.

 * [ESP8266 Eagle Library](https://github.com/wvanvlaenderen/ESP8266-Eagle_Library) used in schematic.

#### Testing the hardware

* Adjust the PixelCount from sketch with the number of leds of the strip you are going to use. 

* Upload hardware-test.ino into d1 using Aduino.

* The program should light up all leds in the follwing order Red , Green , Blue. In the event of Green si reversed with

 Blue you shoud replace  

```

NeoPixelBus strip(PixelCount, PixelPin);

```

with 

```

NeoPixelBus strip(PixelCount, PixelPin);

```

Software

========

I'm going to use Arduino as programing
