Adafruit Flexible Silicone Neon-Like LED Strip - 1 Meter - Purple

These Flexible Silicone Neon-Like LED Strips resemble traditional neon but bypass the need for costly transformers and fragile glass tubing. Crafted with a solid mass of translucent silicone rubber, they act as both a diffuser and outer casing, making the strips bendable and sturdy. Ideal for a variety of lighting projects, such as costumes, bike lights, or festival decorations, they're weather-resistant though not suited for submersion or long-term outdoor use.

Specifications:

• Length: 1 meter
• Power requirement: 9V to 12V
• Non-addressable single-color LEDs
• Translucent silicone rubber casing

Benefits include easy installation with just two power wires and no soldering required. With a 2.1mm DC Barrel Jack, you can connect these to your preferred 12V power source and create an instant glowing effect. For portable projects, consider using 8 x AA battery packs with rechargeable or alkaline batteries.

Please note these strips allow you to turn them on or off, but individual LEDs cannot be addressed, nor can their colors be changed. Customization is possible by cutting the strips, though there's a chance of damaging some LEDs in the process.
