{"title":"Adafruit NeoPixel Digital RGB LED Strip - Black 60 LED [BLACK] 4 meters","handle":"adafruit-neopixel-digital-rgb-led-strip-black-60-led-black-4-meters","url":"/products/adafruit-neopixel-digital-rgb-led-strip-black-60-led-black-4-meters","description":"A mid-density NeoPixel strip with 60 individually addressable RGB LEDs per metre on a flexible black PCB, supplied as a full 4-metre reel (240 LEDs total) with JST SM connectors on each end. Each pixel offers full 24-bit colour control with only a single data pin required. Also available in 1-metre, 2-metre, and 3-metre lengths.\n\nThe strip is 12.5 mm wide (10 mm without casing) and comes with weatherproof sheathing. Cut lines are spaced every 1.7 cm (one LED each) for precise custom lengths.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n60 RGB LEDs per Metre – Double the density of 30 LED/m strips for smoother colour transitions\n\nFull 4-Metre Reel – 240 LEDs total with JST SM connectors on both ends\n\nIndividually Addressable – Set each LED's colour independently with 8-bit PWM per channel (24-bit colour)\n\nSingle-Pin Control – Only one digital output pin required; built-in PWM controller in each LED maintains colour without continuous data\n\nBlack Flex PCB – Blends into dark enclosures and provides high contrast when LEDs are off\n\nWeatherproof Sheathing – Included protective casing (removable if not needed)\n\nChainable & Cuttable – Connect strips together or cut every 1.7 cm with wire cutters\n\n\nPower Requirements\n\n\nVoltage – 5V DC (do not exceed 6V or the strip will be damaged)\n\nMax Current – ~14A at full white (72W for 4 metres)\n\nTypical Current – Colourful patterns typically draw 1/3 to 1/2 of maximum\n\nRecommended Supply – A 5V 10A power supply is recommended; inject power at multiple points along the strip\n\n\n\nWarning: You must use a 5V DC power supply to power these strips. Do not exceed 6V or you risk destroying the entire strip. For 4-metre runs, inject power at both ends (and ideally the middle) to avoid voltage drop.\n\n\nCompatibility Notes\n\nWorks with Arduino (8 MHz+), Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and other fast microcontrollers\nRequires precise 100 ns timing — not compatible with interpreted platforms (Basic Stamp, NETduino) or processors slower than 8 MHz\nEach LED requires 3 bytes of RAM — 240 LEDs uses 720 bytes, within Arduino Uno limits (~1,500 bytes free) but consider an Arduino Mega for larger projects\nFor processors without strict timing capability, consider DotStar LED strips which use SPI-based control\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nRoom-scale accent and ambient lighting\nLED art installations and props\nStage and event lighting\nArchitectural and signage projects\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× NeoPixel Digital RGB LED Strip – 60 LED/m, 4 metres (full reel), black PCB\n\n\nResources\n\n\nNeoPixel Uberguide – Comprehensive wiring, coding, and power guide\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":7876,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-1461","price":202.35,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
