The DFRobot Bluetooth 4.0 RGB LED Strip Kit combines a 3-metre WS2812 addressable LED strip with a Bluno (Arduino-compatible Bluetooth 4.0 board), sound sensor, and audio analyser. Control every individual LED from your iPhone or Android device via Bluetooth Low Energy — change colours in real time, create animations, or react to music with the built-in spectrum analyser.
The kit uses WS2812 individually addressable LEDs at 60 LEDs per metre, giving you full per-pixel colour control. The LED strip can be cut and divided into separate sections for use across multiple projects.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- BLE
- BLE stands for Bluetooth Low Energy, a Bluetooth mode designed for lower power use and modern phone compatibility. It matters because BLE support can make the module easier to use with Apple devices and battery-powered projects, though it may behave differently from classic serial Bluetooth.
- DC barrel jack
- A round power connector commonly used for low-voltage DC power supplies, often described by its outer and inner diameters such as 5.5 x 2.1 mm. Matching the barrel size and polarity is important so the plug physically fits and powers the device correctly.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- RGB
- Short for red, green and blue, usually referring to an LED that can mix those three colours. It matters because controlling an RGB LED teaches how separate outputs combine to create different colours.
- Shield
- An add-on board that plugs into a main controller board to give it extra features such as sensing, motor control or communication. Knowing a product supports shields helps you judge whether it can connect neatly into an existing maker-board setup.
