The Battery Power for LED Pixels and Strips learn guide teaches you how to use our addressable LED strips and pixels for portable projects — bicycles, costumes and fashion accessories — using readily-available AA cells. This is much easier and less expensive to start with than using fancy lithium-polymer batteries and voltage converters.
Our 12mm LED pixels and digital RGB flex strips all operate on 5 Volts. When working at one’s desk or workbench, this is easily supplied with a 5 volt wall adapter, or you might have a bench power supply.
So how do we get our project off the workbench and out into the world? Learn more!
