Firmware feature idea - "animated" AUX LEDs

The AUX on the Fireflies PL09MU gave me the idea of a spinning AUX LED effect:

It would be awesome if we could have this effect:

Options: Speed and brightness.

Toykeep? :-)

It would need a chip on the aux board to control multiple leds.

Or use a ws2812 style addressable led. The led only needs 1 pin from the microcontroller. Not sure how small these addressable leds come in.

Problem is the power consumption. They will consume several mA.

Fabulous idea Lmax. I feel like we will be seeing wifi-controlled rgb’s in production flashlights before too long.

Maybe using a shift register to address the LEDs?
