A 1-metre flexible LED strip encased in translucent silicone rubber that produces a smooth, neon-like glow. The strip uses 96 individually addressable WS281x (NeoPixel) LEDs per metre, driven by standard NeoPixel data at 5 V. The silicone casing acts as a diffuser, eliminating visible LED hotspots for a clean, continuous light effect.
The silicone enclosure is durable and weather-resistant — suitable for cosplay, bike lighting, and festival decorations, though not rated for prolonged submersion or permanent outdoor installation. The strip can be cut to length with wire cutters.

Resources
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- 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.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
- NeoPixel
- A type of addressable LED system where colour data is sent along a single digital data line from one LED or controller to the next. Compatibility matters because the timing and signal format must match for the lights or driver board to respond correctly.
