## Description

These color-changing LEDs take the work out of creating crazy, flashy, blinky… ness. Simply apply power and the LED will cycle through the RGB colorspace: no external controller necessary! These bright and festive LEDs make great decorations, LED “throwies”, indicator lights, etc.

2v-4.5v supply (5v Max). These are super bright at 5v, so you can run it at lower voltages if it's too bright. Note, unlike a normal LED these are not reverse polarity safe!

These 3mm LEDs are of the “fast-changing” variety, meaning they fade-cycle very quickly through several colors and then flash-cycle through several more colors before starting all over again.
