## Description

Better grab some sunglasses, sunscreen, and a bucket hat because these NeoPixels feature a **4W RGBW Cool White LED** and are so bright it's like taking a vacation ON THE SUN.

Alright, maybe Adafruit are exaggerating, but these chainable NeoPixel LEDs are not only super-smart, they are also ridonkulously bright with 4W total, 1W per channel, compared to 0.2W of a 'standard' NeoPixel.

Each order comes with one RGBW NeoPixel LED on an aluminum PCB/holder/heatsink. Please note that even though the PCB acts as a heatsink, 4W is a lot of power to dissipate as heat so you may need an additional heatsink or fan or other cooling mechanisms!

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)

Don't forget to set your NeoPixel driver for **RGBW** mode, which is not the default usually. The 4th channel is connected to the 6000K white LED element.

[**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)

[We also have a guide on addressable LEDs as a whole you can check out here](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/analogue-electronics/addressable-rgb-led-controllers/)

**Please note: these are high power LEDs, you need a strong 5V power supply that can provide at least 1/2 A *per LED***

[We also have a Warm White version of these chainable NeoPixels](https://core-electronics.com.au/ultra-bright-4-watt-chainable-rgbw-neopixel-led-warm-white-3000k.html).
