A lightning bolt-shaped COB (Chip-on-Board) LED filament that produces a warm, uniform glow similar to classic Edison-style LED bulbs. Dozens of micro LED diodes are bonded to a rigid metal backing and coated in silicone for durability. The ultra-thin PCB substrate allows some light to pass through the back, creating a subtle secondary glow.
Key Features
- COB LED Technology – Warm, consistent glow from dozens of micro LED diodes
- 3V Operation – LEDs wired in parallel, powered from both ends
- PWM Dimmable – Adjustable brightness via pulse-width modulation
- Max Current – 100 mA (use a current-limiting resistor)
- Rigid Construction – Non-flexible design with silicone-coated metal backing
- Polarity Marked – Cathode (−) marked on the PCB
Ideal For
- Miniature displays and dioramas
- Dollhouses and themed projects
- Decorative lighting and signage
- LED art installations
Tip: Connect 3V to both ends to power. If it doesn't light up, reverse the connection. The cathode (−) is marked on the PCB.
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
- PWM
- Pulse Width Modulation is a way for a digital pin to simulate variable output power by switching on and off very quickly. It matters for controlling things like LED brightness, motor speed, or servo-style signals from a microcontroller pin.
