Miniature Wired LEDs - 0805 SMT LED - Pink - 5 pack

These super-fine wired LEDs are a great choice for model-makers, crafters, and anyone looking to add small light points to a design without SMT soldering skills. With this five-pack of Miniature Wired 0805 LEDs, wiring is a breeze. Measuring just 2mm x 1.25mm, they're easily embedded into any structure, costume, or wearable. The wires are about 30cm long, 30AWG wire wrap wire. You can sew over them or embed them in a casing. Since they're single-strand wire-wrap, they hold their shape and can pass through small spaces. There are no series resistors in the strand. If you use another supply, calculate and solder in a resistor. Like most pink (white with phosphor) LEDs, they have a forward voltage of about 3.2V and a current limit of about 20mA. Follow our guide to control them. Red is positive (anode) and blue is negative (cathode). Note: These LEDs are very delicate as there's no strain relief at the solder joint. When bending the wire, hold the LED by the wires to avoid stress on the solder point.

Using these LEDs is simple. First, decide where you want to place them in your project, like a model or a costume. The small size makes them easy to fit in. The long wires can be sewn over or put inside a casing. When you're ready to power them, remember that red is positive and blue is negative. If you're using a power supply other than the standard one, you'll need to figure out the right resistor and solder it in. The forward voltage is about 3.2V and the current limit is about 20mA, so keep that in mind. As for maintenance, since these LEDs are very delicate, be careful when handling them. When you bend the wires, always hold the LED by the wires to protect the solder joint. This will help keep your LEDs working well for a long time.
