  • The Ulanzi TC001 is a small Wi-Fi clock built around a 32 x 8 RGB LED matrix.
  • Brightness can be adjusted automatically and manually, which is handy if you’re wanting one beside the bed, and there are plenty of little animations and display styles to stop it feeling static.
  • Instead of being limited to the manufacturer’s stock features, the display can become an endpoint for Home Assistant, MQTT and custom applications.
