Miniature Wired LEDs - 0805 SMT LED - Warm White - 5 pack

These super - fine wired LEDs are a dream for model - makers and crafters. They're also perfect for those who want to add small light points to a design without advanced SMT soldering skills. This five - pack bundle of Miniature Wired 0805 LEDs makes wiring a piece of cake. Measuring just 2mm x 1.25mm, they're incredibly easy to tuck into any structure, costume, or wearable. The wires are about 30cm long and made of 30AWG wire - wrap wire. You can sew over them or embed them in a casing. Since they're single - strand wire - wrap, they'll hold their shape and can pass through tight spaces. There are no series resistors on the strand. If you use a different power supply, you'll need to calculate and solder in a resistor. Like most warm white LEDs, they have a forward voltage of around 3.2V and a current limit of about 20mA. Check our LED wiring/usage guide for control tips. The red wire is positive (anode) and the 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 easy. First, if you're using a different power supply than the standard one, calculate and solder in a resistor as there are no series resistors installed. Connect the red wire (positive) and the blue wire (negative) according to your design. Since the LEDs are so small, they can be easily embedded in structures, costumes, or wearables. The 30 - cm long wires can be sewn over or put inside a casing. Just make sure to handle them gently. These LEDs are extremely delicate because there's no strain relief at the solder joint. When you need to bend the wire, always hold the LED by the wires to prevent stress on the solder point. As for maintenance, keep them in a dry place. If you notice any issues with the light output, check the resistor and the connections. Follow the forward voltage of about 3.2V and current limit of about 20mA for best performance.
