RGBCW led?

The ESP Mesh documentation refers to connecting an "RGBCW" led.

Simple 4 or 6 wire RGB leds are easily available. WS2812-style are also easily available. What is meant by an RGBCW led? Can you give an example?

Many thanks.

Hi smay88,

The demo of "RGBCW" LED is kind of light bulb which we can control its R(red) / G(green) / B(Blue) or C(Cold tone) / W(Warm tone). The bulbs are expected to be released soon.

You can develop your own light application based on iot_light.c, and the ESP32 can support as many as 16 PWM output, so you can choose your leds that are easily avalible for you.

Hope this can solve your confusion.
