Adafruit BlinkyTape by Blinkinlabs

BlinkyTape is a unique LED strip that combines the capabilities of NeoPixels with an Arduino-compatible design, simplifying your creative projects. Featuring 60 independently controllable full-color RGB LEDs, this strip is encased in a weather-resistant silicone shell for durability and versatility.

Equipped with an integrated Atmega32u4 microcontroller, BlinkyTape connects easily through a standard micro-USB port, allowing seamless interaction with computers or standalone operation with a USB battery or wall charger. From producing vibrant rainbow patterns upon first connection to crafting custom designs, the BlinkyTape offers engaging possibilities.

The included companion software enhances ease of use, enabling users to graphically create animations using PatternPaint. For dynamic effects, the Processing library offers examples, turning your LED strip into an exciting light display for your music or as an ambient monitor backlight. Powering the BlinkyTape is efficient, with an average current draw of 300mA, making it compatible with USB battery packs or a Mintyboost Kit.
