## Description

These ultra-fine wired LEDs are designed for model-makers and crafters but they could also come in handy for folks who want to add tiny points of light to a design without needing SMT-level soldering skills. Use this five-pack bundle of **Miniature Wired 0805 LEDs** for easy-breezy LED wiring. They're very small (2mm x 1.25mm), so they're easy to embed into any structure, costume, or wearable.

Wires are approximately 30cm long, 30AWG wire wrap wire. The wires can be sewn over, or embedded in a casing. Since the wires are single-strand wire-wrap they will hold their shape and can be threaded through a small space.

There are no series resistors installed in the strand, if you want to use another supply you will need to calculate and solder in a resistor. Like most blue LEDs these have a forward voltage of about 3.2V and a current limit of about 20mA - [follow Adafruit's LED wiring/usage guide for tips on how to control them](https://learn.adafruit.com/all-about-leds). Red is positive (anode) and blue is negative (cathode)

**Please note: These LEDs do not have any strain relief at the solder joint, so they are extraordinarily delicate. when bending the wire, make sure to hold the LED by the wires to avoid any stresses on the solder point itself.**

### Specifications

- Forward Voltage: 3.2V
- Current limit: 20mA
- LED Dimensions: 2mm x 1.25mm
- Wire Length: 30cm

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA5490:1` (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/ADA5490:1.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; `search.md?q=` also works)
