Bring some colour to a room with this rainbow lamp. It uses the internet enabled ESP8266 circuit board, which means you can control the lamp with your phone. You can choose a colour to match your mood or select from a range of pre-programmed sequences.

The maker, who goes by the username thebigpotatoe, has designed the project to be easily replicable. “I wanted to challenge myself and build the most Super Simple WiFi RGB LED Lamp that anyone can build.”
