This project has been sitting for over 3 months now and I feel bad. I got completely floored at work and then took some time off to travel and decompress. But I am back at it now and thanks to some help from a fellow hackaday'er' this is the first project on my list. Like I mentioned in the beginning of this project there is a lot of excitement around wireless, batteries and general IoT mumbo jumbo. And that all well and good but sometime you just need more current, and you need it all the time. Some solutions just arnt going to be battery powered. Thats why I made this board!
Please ignore the fancy ESD rated table cloth. The boards turned out great, they are from that company that gives you big discounts if you blog about how great they are 'cough PCBway'. For the money the board quality is good. The silkscreen is hit and miss, sometimes its to blotchy to read the refDefs and the pad adhesion is pretty bad. I have had a pad become detached during baking which is pretty weird.
I also got my first meter of WS2812s!
The components for this board should show up this week and hopefully I can populate it some time in the evening.

Wow, this is awesome news! I've been somewhat distracted by the Brexit disaster, but will try to catch up tomorrow!
