Pimoroni Wireless Plasma Kit (Pico W Aboard)

A beginner-friendly, internet-connected mood light in a bottle that's simple to program with MicroPython or CircuitPython.

This innovative kit seamlessly combines a Raspberry Pi Pico W, addressable LEDs, and Pirate GlassTM technology, delivering everything needed to create a fully programmable RGB LED light. The 50 addressable LEDs allow individual control of color and brightness.

Applications range from seasonal mood lighting, air quality indication with an SCD41 sensor, to API-driven weather effects and astral notifications. Services like IFTTT integrate easily for triggering effects from social media, calendars, or home automation events.

Powered by the Plasma Stick 2040 W, featuring an integrated Raspberry Pi Pico W, it accommodates WS2812/Neopixel lights without soldering or connector concerns. It includes additional conveniences like a reset button, Qw/ST connector for sensor and breakout hookups, and universal USB micro-B power connectivity.

Offered in Cubey, Starry, Skully, and BYOB editions, each kit provides versatile bottles or setups to suit varied aesthetic desires — from a hexahedral glass cube to a skull-themed vessel. Beginner-friendly with preloaded MicroPython examples, and also compatible with CircuitPython, allowing diverse programming options for your personalized LED experience.
