## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5863:1` (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/ADA5863:1.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

They're bright, they're white, they light up the night - look at them too close, and you may get spots in your sight... This is a **Single Color, Double-Sided LED strip with 336 bright 2.6mm x 3.2mm white LEDs** adorning both surfaces of a 6mm wide, 1 meter long LED strip.

Adafruit particularly like these strips because they are both incredibly bright and provide near-360-degree illumination, with a thin strip so it can easily be integrated into any design.

This strip variant has ~4500K 'natural' white LEDs. These sit between warm and cool, so they're good for clean, indoor lighting effects that aren't too intense.

Each order gets a **1-meter long strip** with 2 power wires in red & black. Provide 9V (bright) to 12V (very bright!) and the strip starts to glow. The whole strip draws about 950 milliAmps maximum at 12V, 275mA at 9V. You can cut this strip down if you need to, and even re-solder to it - there are cuttable sections every 17.5mm with solder nubs.

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

## Technical Details 

**Overall LED strip dimensions:**

- 1000mm length x 6mm width x 1.8mm height
