## Description

An ultra-high-density RGBW NeoPixel strip with 144 individually addressable LEDs per metre on a flexible black PCB. Each pixel contains four LED elements — red, green, blue, and a dedicated white — providing 32-bit colour control and superior white output compared to RGB-only strips. The dedicated white LED with yellow phosphor produces clean, bright white light without the colour mixing artifacts of RGB white. Only a single data pin is needed to drive the entire strip. Key Features 144 RGBW LEDs per Metre – Maximum pixel density with dedicated white element for true white output 32-Bit Colour – 8-bit PWM per channel across 4 channels (R, G, B, W) for over 4 billion colour combinations Individually Addressable – Control each LED independently with single-pin data Black Flex PCB – Blends into dark enclosures with high contrast when off Weatherproof Sheathing – Clear protective casing included (removable) Chainable & Cuttable – JST SM connectors on each end; cut between any two LEDs 5050-Sized LEDs – Integrated microcontroller inside each LED package Power Requirements Voltage – 5V DC (do not exceed 6V or the strip will be damaged) Max Current – Higher than RGB strips due to the additional white channel; use a robust power supply Recommended Supplies – 5V 2A supply for 1 metre (depending on usage); 5V 10A supply for brighter patterns or chained strips Warning: You must use a 5V DC power supply to power these strips. Do not exceed 6V or you risk destroying the entire strip. Compatibility Notes Works with Arduino (8 MHz+), Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and other fast microcontrollers Uses 800 KHz protocol with 400 Hz PWM refresh rate Each LED requires 4 bytes of RAM (vs 3 for RGB) — 144 LEDs uses 576 bytes Requires an RGBW-compatible NeoPixel library — using a standard RGB library will produce incorrect results. The Adafruit NeoPixel library supports RGBW mode The blue LED element is adjacent to the white phosphor, so blue light may have slight white bleed Note: There is a join in the middle of the strip where LED spacing may not be perfectly even — this is a manufacturing tradeoff at this pixel density. Ideal For High-quality white lighting combined with full colour effects Architectural and ambient lighting where true white matters LED art installations requiring both colour and white Film and photography lighting Package Contents 1× NeoPixel Digital RGBW LED Strip – 144 LED/m, 1 metre, black PCB Resources NeoPixel Uberguide – Comprehensive wiring, coding, and power guide (includes RGBW examples)
