Ok what with the dead pc and a slow ass laptop I had to find something to keep me occupied so what did I do yup fatal error got out the Arduino nano';s I purchased back in the beginning and thought ok what can I do with one of these really?
So out came all the patch leads and bits and bobs laying around such as the sonar unit that never got used the oled screen that seemed a good idea at the time and several ws2812b RGB led rings.

I managed to eventually decide I wanted to do something I thought would be so simple yeah right!!!!!!
I have spent 2 weeks trying to figure this one out and now I am on the verge of going where is the hammer this is not possible!!!

Only I know it is but unfortunately the Arduino sketch that had what I wanted in it no longer exists where it did so I am back to searching.

all I want is what I would have thought would be 2 simple lighting effects
1 is 3red led trailing through white leds bit like either the cylon or knightrider effect but on white led background
have managed to turn all leds white have managed the red led to scroll through but it turns off the white led behind and for the life of me I cant find a way to turn it back on.

2 is the breathing effect but I want it to cycle through the colours this no matter how hard I have looked I do not seem to be able to find a sketch to start from.

I know that these amazing little devices have been around a while but I have never before had the inclination to tinker with them and to be honest I think I am becoming slightly addicted which is not a good thing.

Told son I want 5 meters of 60 RGB led strip for Christmas as I am so amazed by these things I think I am loosing the plot.

So please advise is this normal or do I need to see doctor for a new affliction >>>>?????
