Description
These 5mm diffused RGB rainbow LEDs are perfect for eye catching lighting effects with no controller required.
Each LED contains an integrated PWM chip that automatically cycles through 8 vibrant colours with a slow flashing pattern, making them ideal for decorative projects, DIY gadgets, and educational demonstrations.
Just connect them to power no coding or controllers needed!
