## Description

This 3W RGB LED from Adafruit delivers bright, full-colour illumination from a compact high-power package. Each red, green, and blue die handles up to 350mA continuous current (1A peak), producing a combined output of approximately 110 lumens. The LED comes pre-mounted on an aluminium PCB that serves as both a mounting base and partial heatsink. This is a common-anode configuration, so all three colour channels share a single positive connection. Key Features High Power Output – 3W total with ~110 lumens Full RGB Colour Mixing – Independent red, green, and blue dies for millions of colours Common Anode – Shared positive connection for all three channels Aluminium PCB Mount – Pre-mounted on a metal-core PCB for heat dissipation Specifications Power – 3W Luminous Output – ~110 lumens Configuration – Common anode Current per Channel – 350mA continuous, 1A peak Mounting – Aluminium PCB Ideal For RGB lighting projects Colour-mixing experiments Custom lamp and fixture builds Stage and effects lighting Package Contents 1× 3W RGB LED on aluminium PCB Note: Although the aluminium PCB provides some heatsinking, additional cooling may be needed for continuous operation at full power. For even higher brightness, see the 3W–9W RGB LED which supports up to 750mA per channel.
