What is it?

This is a 2-universe DMX decoder shield and power supply for the ESP32 and 8266 Lolin Wemos Boards.

Why is there a discount?

This board iteration (v2) is discounted because it needs a few wires in addition to the PCB for the fully assembled product.

Why did you make it?

I have a lot of DMX lighting that I would like to run but without wires and using open-source hardware and tools. This board works for DMX lighting strands (raw wires) and DMX hosts with 3 pin connectors. It takes 5-24 volts as VIN and regulates that power to run the NodeMCU and the DMX translation chips.

What makes it special?

It replaces typical Arduino DMX shields for one that is integrated with the Wemos D1 Dev Boards. It also integrates a 5v power supply reducing the number of external components. Since this board is wireless and relatively inexpensive, the cost and complexity of isolating the output from the low-voltage side of the board did not make sense.

The board has broken out unused pins from the MCU allowing for easily adding in extra LED pixels, sensors, etc. It has 2 indicator LEDs as well allowing easy status updates for debugging or connection updates, etc.

The board can be powered from:

The screw terminals on the side (input or output) (useful when using DMX light strips)
The USB on the NodeMCU board (useful if you have a micro-usb charger)
The barrel jack (for any 5-24v barrel jack power, powers LED strips as well).

What you’re getting

This product is fully assembled and includes a Wemos D1 Mini ESP32 socketed with headers for easy replacement in case of issue. The board supports 2 DMX universes but comes configured with WLED that only currently supports 1 DMX universe.
