An RGBW NeoPixel strip with 30 individually addressable LEDs per metre on a flexible black PCB. Each pixel contains four LED elements — red, green, blue, and a dedicated white — providing 32-bit colour control and superior white output compared to RGB-only strips. Also available at 144 LED/m density.

The dedicated white LED with yellow phosphor produces clean, bright white light without colour mixing artifacts. The 30 LED/m density makes this ideal for longer runs with lower power requirements.

Key Features

• 30 RGBW LEDs per Metre – Dedicated white element for true white output alongside full RGB colour
• 32-Bit Colour – 8-bit PWM per channel across 4 channels (R, G, B, W) for over 4 billion colour combinations
• Individually Addressable – Control each LED independently with single-pin data
• Black Flex PCB – Blends into dark enclosures with high contrast when off
• Weatherproof Sheathing – Clear protective casing included (removable)
• Chainable & Cuttable – Cut every 3.4 cm with wire cutters; solder to 0.1" copper pads
• 5050-Sized LEDs – Integrated microcontroller inside each LED package

Power Requirements

• Voltage – 5V DC (do not exceed 6V or the strip will be damaged)
• Recommended Supplies – 5V 2A supply for 1 metre; 5V 10A supply for longer runs

Compatibility Notes

• Works with Arduino (8 MHz+), Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and other fast microcontrollers
• Uses 800 KHz protocol with ~400 Hz PWM refresh rate
• Each LED requires 4 bytes of RAM (vs 3 for RGB) — 30 LEDs uses only 120 bytes per metre
• Requires an RGBW-compatible NeoPixel library — using a standard RGB library will produce incorrect results. The Adafruit NeoPixel library supports RGBW mode
• The blue LED element is adjacent to the white phosphor, so blue light may have slight white bleed

Ideal For

• High-quality white lighting combined with full colour effects
• Architectural and ambient lighting where true white matters
• Longer LED runs requiring both colour and white output
• Under-cabinet and shelf lighting
