SP105E Bluetooth 4.0 LED Strip Controller - Diverse LED Strip Support

When it comes to LEDs & lighting, it’s relatively easy to throw together some LED strips to liven up an environment, and giving LED strips some extra functionality with microcontrollers is also not a difficult task, but if you really want to customise your lighting solutions with remote operations, live string updates and reactive activation, then it becomes quite a lot more difficult, requiring more than just a few extra lines of code and usually calling for extra hardware as well. This is where the magic of LED strip controllers really shine, as controllers like this SP105E Bluetooth 4.0 LED Strip Controller takes away all of the hassle behind setting up customised and personalised LED lighting projects, providing a super simple connection style, all of the hardware built in to the enclosure, and easy remote control so that you can adjust settings, change modes and tweak LED strips from the comfort of your couch.

In a rather unique fashion, the SP105E Magic LED Controller takes advantage of modern, accessible technology by integrating Bluetooth 4.0 capabilities for easy LED strip control via a dedicated mobile app. This dramatically cuts down on the time required to setup LED strips and arrays, and even cuts down on typical costs as all of the important parts are built in without any unnecessary extras. The onboard hosted app features a very user-friendly interface, with a colour wheel for quick adjustments and presets that you can define and swap between with a single touch. This Bluetooth style means that these can be installed almost anywhere that power is available – wall outlet or battery – and as long as you have a mobile device with Bluetooth nearby, you have access to all of the controls and functionality that the SP105E offers.

In terms of LED strip compatibility, this module really outshines all competitive models with support for all kinds of modern LED strips, including the WS28 series like WS2812B and WS2811, the more advanced SK6812 LED strips, the APA105 and APA107 series, NS107S, SK9822, as well as many more strips that operate with 1 or 2 wire communications interfaces. And of course, as you might expect, the SP105E also offers a wide voltage range of between 5V and 24V DC to accommodate those various styles of LED strip, and this is precisely why we often refer to it as the everything LED strip controller, since it caters to a large majority of the common LED strips used by Makers and tinkerers, while simultaneously featuring one of the easiest and most enjoyable user interfaces that we’ve come across so far.
