WS2812B LED Strip Individual Addressable Light SMD 5050 144Pixels RGB Pixel Strip DC5V (3.2FT 144LEDS Non-Waterproof, Black PCB)

I wish I had a phot before writing this, but I will put one up soon. I used these to add lighting to my power wheelchair. I think I messed up on my order, because one reel did not have adhesive. T-Rex superglue tape to the rescue.I digress. These things are vibrant, bright, and worked flawlessly for my wheelchair lighting project.Beware, wrong polarity, or over voltage will destroy them. That said, it usually just fries the first 1 or 2 in line, but if you are using specific lengths in you code, you either scrap the strip, or scrap your code. The strip is easier, but the rest of them are still good for other uses.My bone head accidentally hit them with 24v, because I wasn't paying attention. I think the most was 3 pixels lost.I really only have 1 problem with these... That I hadn't found them sooner. The price is astonishing to me. When I started my project 3 years ago, the LED's were the barrier, because of cost (fixed income) Then I found these. I'll be buying more for sure. I have a few plans for christmas.Oh, they are BRIGHT at 100% easily seen from a quarter mile, depending on color. I had to lower the intensity of my turn signals (Yellow) because I was lighting up the street like a public services truck. This was only with 50 pixels total, and they cycle, so they are never on all at the same time. Like I said, BRIGHT.

I've cut these up and soldered them into Arduino projects, and they work great. Very bright, and the LEDs are very dense at 144 LEDs per string. They also include a controller for using them as-is, and you just need to supply 5v. If the price remains good, I will likely purchase them again.

Works great and has many different programed displays. Easy to use and works well with a remote controller (sold seperatly.

I bought these to make a pixel blade for my son. I have never done this before and was a little worried about spending a lot of money on the recommend LED strips. These were inexpensive and worked beautifully. There were no dead LED's and it all went together fine. My son has been using his blade for a while now and we haven't had any issues.If you are buying them to make a pixel blade for a light saber you should be aware that there is a small gap in the strips. Most videos talk about this and how to cut and re-solder it to remove the gap. My soldering skills aren't the greatest so I left it. I don't think it's noticeable. My son hasn't complained so I am happy.

(144 LEDs/m version) Decent RGB LED strip, BUT the dimensions listed in the schematic are incorrect, the distance between LEDs is .272", not .255", I'm guessing the dimensions are wrong for the 60 and 30 versions too.

Great LEDs, managed to drive them with external power and an esp32 as a data. also, works great after cutting them on the lines

Item dead on arrival; would not power up. Avoid this brand.

I've used a lot of these when needing a WS2812B strip at the 144/m density but not needing any waterproofing features. The price is great for something that is delivered quickly domestically and the brightness is on par with more expensive options. The included driver boards are actually very helpful when working with these chips, even if you won't use them in the actual project.I had one strip fail right out of the box and was able to trace it down to solder bridging on one of the individual chips. Amazon took care of it and sent a free replacement.
