Better grab your sunglasses, your sunscreen, and a bucket hat because these NeoPixels feature a 3W RGB LED and are so bright it's like taking a vacation ON THE SUN. Alright maybe Adafruit are exaggerating, but these are really bright.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA4544:1` (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/ADA4544:1.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.)

## Description

Better grab your sunglasses, your sunscreen, and a bucket hat because these NeoPixels feature a 3W RGB LED and are so bright it's like taking a vacation ON THE SUN. Alright maybe Adafruit are exaggerating, but these are really bright.

These chainable NeoPixel LEDs are not only super-smart, they are ridonkulously bright with 3W total, compared to 0.2W of a 'standard' NeoPixel.

Each order comes with one 3W NeoPixel LED on an aluminum PCB/holder/heatsink. Please note that even though the PCB acts as a heatsink, 3W is a lot of power to dissipate as heat so you may need an additional heatsink or fan or other cooling mechanism!

Each order comes with ONE fully assembled NeoPixel with [JST 3 SM connectors at both ends, Adafruit stock cables that you can use to connect!](https://core-electronics.com.au/3-pin-jst-sm-plug-receptacle-cable-set.html)

[Adafruit have a tutorial showing NeoPixel wiring, power usage calculations, example code for usage, etc. Please check it out!](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-neopixel-uberguide)

**Please note, these are high power LEDs, you need a strong 5V power supply that can provide at least 1/2 A per LED**[](https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-neopixel-uberguide)
