## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=COM-25893:1` (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/COM-25893:1.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

This is a 5mm right angle light pipe to get the light of an LED out the end plate of an enclosure. Sparkfun couldn't find a light pipe that fit all our needs, so Sparkfun made it! This clip snaps over any SMD LED that is 1206 size or smaller. Addressable LEDs 2x2mm or smaller work great! The clip is easily inserted but holds tightly in place. The clip can be removed if needed. The black housing prevents light bleed between neighboring indicators. An example footprint and layout in KiCad is available on the documents tab.

Circuit board indicators should be any color and take only one GPIO to control them all!

This product is sold as a single unit. [Also available in 100qty bag](https://core-electronics.com.au/sparkfun-cbi-light-pipe-smd-leds-5mm-right-angle-100pcs.html)
