Focalwanna LED Music Spectrum Electronic DIY LED Flash Kit 12*11FFT(with housing)

Picked this up at Amazon, it's a pretty simple kit IF your into soldering SMD. If I were to do this again I'd invest in some solder paste, and use the reflow oven at the local makerspace. All surface mount, which wouldn't be so bad except for all the tiny LEDs in the front. Go slow, remove them from the package one at a time, check polarity solder in one side. Then you can solder in all the other sides when they are all on. That way if you have to remove one it's not a huge ordeal. Instructions came with it. It seems pretty hackable, though most of the heavy lifting is done by two chips on the back. They shorted me a green and a blue LED, and for some reason I don't have output from the speakers. I paired this with an external speaker though and it looked awesome. For the price it's a nice project, and well worth the effort. What an effort it is.
