RGBW LED Strip | 60/m - Size:5050 - 12V DC | Extra White Channel

As Makers, there’s one thing that we all have in common, and that’s the desire to customise and personalise all of our things with colour schemes, styles and even intricate patterns to match our personality and cater to our distinct and unique tastes and preferences. This is what makes LEDs & Lighting so popular in electronics and other Maker hobbies, as these are super simple ways to add visual flair to… well, pretty much anything you want, ensuring that you can fill your environment with the style that you love most by simply adding a splash of custom colour and enhance your working or living spaces with minimal effort.

This is why we’ve recently taken a strong interest in sourcing all kinds of fantastic LED Strips for Makers who want to personalise and customise their lives, with these particular strips being the Classic RGB LED Strips with 60/m standard density and the tried and trusted SMD5050 chips. It operates on a convenient 12V DC, making it great for many applications from interior vehicle lighting to emergency lighting on stairs, and are relatively easy to use with a simple microcontroller or an LED Strip Controller depending on how advanced you need your project to be. This allows for all kinds of fun or functional lighting applications, such as installing mood or ambience lighting into a living room or the interior of a computer or electronics case, adding automated lighting to rooms or along stairwells, music and audio-activated lighting to outdoor and socialising spaces, as well as for almost any environment that you think could benefit from a splash of colour or ambience – with the extra white channel ensuring great colour accuracy and a high brightness than standard RGB LED Strips.
