Adafruit Flexible RGB Neon-like LED Strip 120 LEDs - 1 meter long

Flexible Silicone Neon-Like LED Strips combine the aesthetic appeal of neon lighting without the complexity and fragility of traditional neon. Constructed with an RGB non-addressable LED strip enveloped in translucent silicone rubber, these strips offer vibrant illumination with enhanced durability.Ideal for various creative applications, their flexibility allows for use in costumes, bike lighting, or festival decorations. The silicone casing provides resilience against weather, although prolonged underwater use or extended outdoor exposure is not recommended.The strip is 1 meter long and comes equipped with four wires. Connect the black wire to +12V, and the red, green, and blue wires to ground to activate corresponding colors. Operating between 9V (bright) and 12V (very bright), you can set the entire strip to one color by toggling the power to each channel, though individual LED control is not available.To use these LED strips effectively, a microcontroller with three PWM outputs and three N-MOSFETs is necessary for controlling each RGB element. This setup unleashes the full spectrum of color possibilities across the entire strip, elevating your projects with consistent and vivid lighting.
