New in the Adafruit store – BlinkM, programmable LEDs!

Blinkm Lrg
Pt 2005
We are extremely pleased to welcome BlinkM to the Adafruit store! Have you wanted an LED that can fade from deep red to bright purple? Flash like a police light? Turn on with the subtle fade of an incandescent bulb? Flicker like a candle? That’s BlinkM.

The BlinkM is attached to an ultra bright wide-angle RGB LED to a microcontroller. Using BlinkM Sequencer, our software that fuses a color picker with a drum machine, you program BlinkM to be any color, and blink and fade in virtually any pattern.

When you’ve programmed your BlinkM, you unplug it and pop it into your project. Apply 5 volts, and it does its thing, whether that’s glowing your favorite pinkish purple, or pulse like an old neon light.

Quick Start requirements:

  • No programming experience!
  • Arduino I/O board (not included, and you only need one to program any number of BlinkMs)

Now in stock in the Adafruit store!
