## Pricing

- **Price:** $83.35 (inc GST) — $75.77 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $73.50 (exc GST) · 50+ $71.98 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA6127:1` (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/ADA6127:1.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.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

There's never an end to the cool shapes and designs that Adafruit see folks cram LEDs into. Adafruit have got individual LEDs, [strips](https://core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/ADA2502), [rings](https://core-electronics.com.au/cool-white-led-ring-light-with-usb-cable-and-on-off-switch-70mm-diameter-5v.html), and even [LED 'Neon'](https://core-electronics.com.au/flexible-silicone-neon-like-led-strip-1-meter-cold-white.html). One shape that's always been a challenge is emulating the flat appearance of [EL tape](https://core-electronics.com.au/white-electroluminescent-el-tape-strip-100cm-w-two-connectors.html). This **Ultra Flexible LED Ribbon Strip** is **30mm Wide** and comes in a **1 Meter long strip of neutral white LEDs**. Soldered to the flexible PCB material is 1600 micro chip-on-board (COB) LEDs, spaced on a 3x5mm grid, which is then covered by a protective diffused silicone coating.

Usage is simple: Provide 20 to 24V power to the + and - pads on the strip (we ship with some wires pre-soldered). 20V will be bright, 24V is the max voltage and is 'hella' bright! You can easily cut the strip into smaller chunks, each one is 25mm long. If you want to dim/brighten, use a PWM signal into a [power MOSFET like Adafruit's Stemma board](https://core-electronics.com.au/adafruit-mosfet-driver-for-motors-solenoids-leds-etc-stemma-jst-ph-2mm.html).

As you can imagine with hundreds of LEDs per strip, you'll need a significant amount of power to light them up fully. Each 25mm 'segment' requires 24V and approximately 42mA, a full meter will need 1.7 Amps at 24V! [We stock a 24V power supply that can light up one meter](https://core-electronics.com.au/adjustable-power-supply-w-2-1mm-5-5mm-dc-3v-to-24v-at-2-amp.html).

**Note, these are not 'NeoPixel' LED strips; you cannot turn on or off individual LEDs**. [This guide on analog RGB LED strip control will show you how it works - you'll want a microcontroller with a PWM output, and a N-MOSFETs or a ULN2803 to control the power to the entire LED element](https://learn.adafruit.com/rgb-led-strips).
