## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA6246:1` (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/ADA6246:1.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

The **Pimoroni Plasma 2350 W** is an all-in-one, USB-C powered controller for WS2812 (a.k.a NeoPixel) and APA102 (a.k.a DotStar) addressable LED strips. Now with added wireless connectivity! It's got the beefy power of an RP2350-based Pico 2, with the same module that is on the 2W for Bluetooth &amp; WiFi support.

Plasma 2350 W is powered and programmable by USB-C, and because USB-C is capable of drawing up to 3A of power, that's enough to power a healthy chunk of LEDs. There's a useful button that you could use to switch between effects, plus a reset button and an onboard RGB LED. Pimoroni also popped a QW/ST connector on there to make it super easy to plug in I2C-based Qwiic or STEMMA QT breakouts.

This version comes equipped with a Raspberry Pi RM2 module, which gives it 2.4 GHz wireless and Bluetooth connectivity. Use it to control Plasma 2350 W remotely, hook it up to online APIs, or integrate it with your home automation.

### **Features:**

- Powered by RP2350A (Dual Arm Cortex M33 running at up to 150MHz with 520KB of SRAM)
- 4MB of QSPI flash supporting XiP
- Compatible with 5V WS2812/Neopixel/SK6812 and APA102/Dotstar/SK9822 LEDs
