Adafruit NeoPixel Digital RGB LED Weatherproof Strip 60 LED-1m
These 12.5mm wide NeoPixel strips are exactly what you need for your next wearable product. The strip has black-colored flex PCB, which will be less visible against black-painted walls. There are 60 RGB LEDs per meter, and you can control each LED individually. You can set the color of each LED's red, green and blue component with 8-bit PWM precision (so 24-bit color per pixel). The LEDs are controlled by shift-registers that are chained up down the strip so you can shorten or lengthen the strip. Only 1 digital output pin are required to send data down. The PWM is built into each LED-chip so once you set the color you can stop talking to the strip and it will continue to PWM all the LEDs for you. The strip is made of flexible PCB material, and comes with a weatherproof sheathing. You can cut this stuff pretty easily with wire cutters, there are cut-lines every 0.65"/1.7cm (1 LED each). Solder to the 0.1" copper pads and you're good to go. You must use a 5V DC power supply to power the
