At 332 LEDs per metre, this is one of the highest-density addressable LED strips available.\n\nEach LED provides 24-bit colour (8-bit per RGB channel) on a single data line. The SK6812 LEDs work with 3–5 V logic and power (best at 5 V), and don't require an inline resistor. The strip is 14 mm wide on flexible PCB with weatherproof sheathing, and comes with JST SM 3-pin connectors and colour-coded wires (black = ground, green = signal, red = 5 V).\n\nKey Features\n\n\n332 LEDs per Metre – 165 miniature SK6812 NeoPixels in 0.5 m\n\nSilicone Bead Diffuser – Milky coating produces smooth, continuous colour blending\n\n24-Bit Colour – 8-bit PWM per red, green, and blue channel\n\nSingle-Pin Control – One digital output drives the entire strip\n\n3–5 V Compatible – SK6812 LEDs work without inline resistor\n\nCuttable – Shorten with wire cutters as needed\n\nChainable – Connect multiple strips (watch current budget)\n\nJST SM 3-Pin Connectors – Plug and socket on each end with colour-coded wires\n\n\n\nWarning: Power at 3–5 V DC only. Do not exceed 6 V or the entire strip may be permanently damaged. Do not run all LEDs at full white brightness — the thin flexible PCB cannot handle the maximum theoretical current (10 A for 0.5 m) without overheating.\n\n\nPower Requirements\n\n\nMaximum theoretical draw – ~10 A at 5 V for 0.5 m (all LEDs full white)\n\nTypical draw – Less than one-third of maximum for colourful patterns\nA 5 V 2 A supply is sufficient for colourful designs at moderate brightness\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nUltra-smooth colour gradient effects\nWearable electronics and costumes\nHigh-density light painting\nCompact LED art with continuous colour blending\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× 0.5 m NeoPixel 332 LED/m Silicone Bead Strip (with weatherproof sheathing)\n\n\nResources\n\n\nNeoPixel Uberguide – Comprehensive guide with wiring, code examples, and best practices\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":3436,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-4865","price":79.55,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":82,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
