Adafruit NeoPixel LED Shapes Pixel Strand - 20 LEDs

Attaching NeoPixel strips to your costume can be a struggle as the flexible PCBs can crack when bent too much. So how do you add little bits of colour? Use these stranded NeoPixel LEDs that come in adorable shapes.

Each strand has 20 shapes with a single RGB NeoPixel inside with cabling connecting them. They are 6" apart and are individually addressable with 8 bits per RGB channel, so they can be set to any of 16 million colours.

NeoPixels are 5050-sized LEDs with an embedded microcontroller inside the LED. You can set the brightness of each R/G/B. Each LED acts like a shift register, reading incoming data on the input pins, and then shifting the previous data out on the output pin. By sending a long string of data, you can control an infinite number of LEDs, just tack on more or disconnect unwanted LEDs at the end. The PWM is built into each LED-chip so once you set the brightness you can stop talking to the strip and it will continue to PWM all the LEDs for you.

These NeoPixel strands have 20 digitally addressable pixel LEDs, with JST 3-pin SM connectors on either end so you can plug them together to chain. The red wire is +5V, the middle wire is data, and the black wire is ground. The connector with the pins is the input, and the connector with the holes is the output. We have a tutorial showing NeoPixel wiring, power usage calculations, example code for usage, etc. Please check it out!
