Thanks for the detailed review. I've 50 of these on the way for a project or two. I have the 64 (8x8) WS2812B 5050 matrix, wrote my own AVR code for it to make work because I wanted to (surprisingly easy to program) and my burned eyebrows confirms that my code is indeed working. Man these things are bright!
Question. Do these things get dimmer at 3.3V vs 5V? I can't really tell the difference in brightness after about 50% (128,128,128) and (255,255,255) appear pretty similar. The other thing is gamma, but I'm guessing at least Adafruit has some features to handle this. Do you use gamma tables for more accurate color mixing? One table for each primary or one common table (sacrifices some accuracy given how green is a lot brighter than the other two, and there's also a difference between red and blue but not as extreme). Do you use the whole range or reduce it to a predefined gamma corrected 16 or 256 color palette? I mean if you've played around with it to that extent that is. I guess most people just want it to work and use existing libraries to get things going, but since I'm a curious idiot I run into things like this so ... any feedback from you or anyone else always appreciated. Thanks! Have fun!
