💡 SMD5050 LED package — bright RGB output and excellent color mixing

🔧 Cuttable every 1 LED (or segment) for flexible installation

Overview & Key Features

The WS2812B 60LED/m addressable LED strip is a versatile, high-density RGB strip designed for projects that require pixel-level control. Each LED contains a built-in driver (WS2812B) enabling independent color and brightness control of every pixel over a single data line. This makes the strip ideal for dynamic lighting effects, signage, home accent lighting, wearable electronics and interactive installations.

Technical Specifications & Performance

This 60 LED/m strip uses SMD5050 tri-color packages with integrated WS2812B driver ICs. It operates at 5V DC and draws approximately 18 W per meter at full white (all channels at maximum). The strip supports standard SPI-like data timing from common microcontrollers (Arduino, Teensy, ESP series) and is compatible with popular libraries such as FastLED and Adafruit NeoPixel.

Installation & Compatibility

The strip is cuttable at marked cut points for custom lengths and can be soldered or connected via compatible 3-pin connectors (5V, Data, GND). For long runs, use power injection at intervals to avoid voltage drop. The WS2812B works with most LED controllers and microcontrollers supporting a 5V data signal; for 3.3V controllers an appropriate level shifter or logic-level converter is recommended for reliable data transmission.

Why choose WS2812B 60LED/m

High pixel density yields smoother gradients and fluid animations. The integrated driver in each LED simplifies wiring and reduces the need for external driver chips. Combined with an extensive software ecosystem, this strip provides a powerful and cost-effective solution for both hobbyists and professionals.
