Hi all, in the background I've been wanting to finish off a little project I call the Super Premium "Badge". It is the size of the membership card, with USBC, 384 addressable RGB LED's (arranged in a 48 x 8 matrix), a 160MHz RISC-V micro controller with 2.4GHz wifi and BLE, 400KB SRAM and 2A lithium charger also on board. Designed to be compatible with WLED project, for easy of use.

Its basically done, I've uploaded to jlcpcb for quote. in 5 off qnty it is ~$75+ shipping each. I'm taking expression of interest for the first run of 5 as it is a significant cost and as a first run there might be and probably will be some errors and given the very fine pitch nature of the board it might be very tricky to rework.

The matrix display is large enough for 8 off 7x5 size characters with spaces perfect for call sign and clock.

I think the project might encourage some new members

i intend to write a short article for the newsletter to get some people interested.

Please indicate if you would like to join in for the prototype run, and all the pain and joy that brings.
