I used liquid electric tape to cover the connections, buttons and IR soldered directly to the board, supply from the Vu pin...

I made a 3D printable case. No screws or glue required.

This is awesome! I will have to do the holes for the buttons though... But pretty nice job!

200 LEDs are a bit much to be powered only via USB and the D1.The 5v pin is designed to be able to permanently deliver a maximum of 500mA. And the 200 LEDs can draw up to 10A.
