The Adafruit Soft Flexible Wire NeoPixel Strand features 50 individually addressable RGB LEDs spaced approximately 100 mm (~4") apart on soft, plated wire. Unlike traditional flexible PCB strips that can crack when bent too far, these wire-based NeoPixels are ideal for costumes, wearables, and projects where flexibility and easy embedding are essential.

The wires can be sewn over or embedded in castings and structures. You can cut the strand to length with wire cutters and connect multiple strands together for longer runs. Connectors come pre-attached, and you can also solder directly to the flexible wires.
