I finished my build today (all bar the dew straps). Thanks to @Jonk for selling me the circuit board and of course @brown_rb for the amazing design and software! A couple of things I learnt along the way - the circuit board version I have has the RGB LED pins screen printed incorrectly - easy to tell by changing the fan speed and seeing the colours aren't what you expect. Secondly the code only has the fan 100% or not at all - there's no automated ramping up of the fan - the intermediate values are only available manually. So if you're not planning on playing with the fan speed directly, then the RGB LED is somewhat redundant and could be skipped. Finally I had Adafruit backpacks for my LCD which are a different chipset and need a different display library. After a couple of hours messing about in the code I just spent a few quid and bought the backpack with the appropriate chipset - I'd recommend making sure you have the right type.
