Sample configurations

2020-10-29 Updated 4x Monochromatic (One color) LED strip
2019-11-22 Updated 4x Monochromatic (One color) LED strip
4x Monochromatic (One color) LED strip
2x CCT (Cold White + Warm White) LED strip
1x RGBW LED strip

2020-10-29 Updated 4x Monochromatic (One color) LED strip

Lowered example PWM frequency to 20.000Hz since running 120.000Hz is really only needed in special situations (high speed cameras and such).

Ending remarks

As mentioned above, these configurations are just examples, ESPhome is very versatile and you can use any of the channels for any mix of light you desire. Also you can easily connect sensors or buttons to the exposed GPIO pins for things like temperature sensing, motion sensors, etc.
