Re: Neopixel Basic P038 Multiple instances

Just tried to update an old setup.

Seems P038 multiple instances is no longer "working" in release after 20220427.

I have tried, I think all of them, after this release date, but no success.

Can you confirm ?

Thanks

If you want to “plunge” something for a long time under water, IP68 is needed

So the first sensor with IP65 will need prepping to hopefully make it last.
