Tentacle Buddies
Tentacle Buddies help you wire up projects with strands of LEDs that dangle from a central ring (like tentacles) or hang from horizontal strips (like curtains). The Tentacle System consists of 2 boards: the Tentacle Buddy and the Tentacle Breakout. It's optimized for a Pixelblaze Pico though they can be used with any LED controller, and for Pebble-style strands with a Data Return line. They help keep your LED data wiring tidy and compact, make connectorizing strands and controllers easy, and also feature a convenient USB-C connector for powering both the LEDs and controller. A full guide is in our Instructions. The Tentacle Buddy Board This board interfaces directly to an LED controller, breaks out power into a convenient USB-C connector, sends the LED data down a 4-pin Pebble strand that has a Data Return line, and then sends the returned data and power out a 3-pin Pebble connector or pads. It is shipped with all mating connectors, but only the USB-C connector is pre-soldered. Th
