ESP32 Advanced WLED Controller 15A 5-24V GL-C-615WL

With the ESP32 Advanced WLED Controller GL-C-615WL from GLEDOPTO, you can control addressable LED strips more flexibly and comfortably than ever before. This advanced LED controller based on ESP32 is directly integrated into the WLED app via WiFi – no separate central unit is required. It supports a wide range of digital LED types (e.g., WS2812B, WS2815, SK6812, TM1814, and many more) and voltages from 5 V to 24 V, making it compatible with most addressable LED strips. For dynamic lighting scenes, the controller features an integrated microphone that captures music and ambient sounds, allowing the LEDs to react in sync. A special highlight is the built-in energy-saving relay: When the lighting is turned off via app, remote control, or button, power to the LEDs is completely cut off – preventing standby consumption and afterglow. With two output channels (each up to 10 A, totaling a maximum of 15 A), the GL-C-615WL effortlessly controls large installations or two LED strips simultaneously. The quick-connect spring terminals enable fast and secure wiring; alternatively, the power supply can be fed via these terminal connections or the existing DC barrel jack. For safety, a replaceable 20A fuse is installed, protecting the device from overcurrent. A USB-C port facilitates flashing custom firmware or testing with 5 V/3A power supply (e.g., via phone charger). Despite the extensive range of functions, the controller remains compact and user-friendly – ideal for beginners and experienced tinkerers to create impressive lighting projects in the living area, home theater, gaming setup, or DIY sector.
