Kitronik Ltd Zip Hex WS2812Mini LED Boards, 5 Pack
Pack of 5 programmable Kitronik Zip Hex LED boards with WS2812Mini RGB LEDs. Perfect for micro:bit & electronics projects.
The Kitronik Ltd Zip™ Hex LED board is a versatile and programmable lighting solution, perfect for electronics projects and creative designs. Each board features a single, high-quality WS2812Mini LED capable of producing a full spectrum of colours when controlled by a compatible microprocessor. This opens up a world of possibilities for custom lighting effects, indicators, and interactive displays.
Designed with ease of use and flexibility in mind, the board includes six evenly spaced pads around its perimeter. These pads are perfectly suited for secure connections using standard M3 fixings or for quick prototyping with crocodile clips. Its simple yet intelligent design allows multiple boards to be easily chained together or stacked vertically; by rotating the PCB by 180°, you can create neat, compact columns of light.
With a wide operating voltage of 3.5-5V, these LEDs are compatible with a broad range of common microcontrollers and power supplies. At 5V, the board has a supply current of 50mA, with each individual RGB channel drawing 16mA, making them efficient for multi-LED setups. The compact dimensions ensure they can be integrated into projects with limited space without compromising on visual impact.
This pack contains five identical Zip Hex LED boards, providing ample components for more complex installations or multiple projects. Ready-to-use software packages are widely available for popular platforms like the micro:bit, allowing you to get started with coding and colour control quickly and easily. Whether you're building a wearable light show, a model display, or an educational electronics kit, these LED boards offer reliable performance and creative potential.
