## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA3649:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA3649:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)

## Description

Winter time can be rough in the city. The sky is gray. The weather is unpredictable. So slough off those seasonal blues with some Times Square razzle dazzle from this sweet, ultra-high-density **64x64 RGB LED Matrix**. These panels are typically used to make video walls. Here in New York Adafruit see them on the sides of buses and on top of taxi cabs displaying animations or video advertisements. Adafruit thought they looked really cool, so they picked up a few boxes of them from a factory. They have **4,096** bright RGB LEDs arranged in a 64x64 grid at a 2.5mm pitch.

**WARNING! These 64-pixel tall matrixes use a non-standard 5-address multiplexing system!** **WARNING!** Many add-ons or drivers use only a 4-address (ABCD) setup. Right now the only board Adafruit have that can use these big matricies is Adafruit's **[RGB Matrix Bonnet for Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-rgb-matrix-bonnet-for-raspberry-pi.html)**, and you'll need to connect a solder jumper. Other libraries such as Adafruit's Arduino library, or Adafruit's HDMI driver boards **don't** support 5-address multiplexing!**Full Kit Contents:**

- 64x64 RGB panel
- IDC ribbon cable (~200mm)
- power cable (~480mm)
- 4 mounting screws and mini-magnets.
