From the project
USB-C powered, slim IR emitter for use with Wii / light guns
A small and elegant board that will take 5V from its USB-C board to power its own LEDs and pass it on to any other emitter boards in your setup.
This board is ideal for the smallest setup possible with no dedicated power board.
