These  incredibly small and slim surface-mount NeoPixel LEDs are an easy way to add a lot of very tiny (but bright!) colorful baguette diamond LEDs to your project. They are just 3.2mm x 1.0mm x 1.48mm and can be soldered in a few different ways: flat against a PCB, reverse mount using the top pads and a cutout in the PCB, and right angle . As they are pretty darn tiny, they will be difficult to hand solder. SMT techniques with solder...

What is better than smart RGB LEDs? Smart RGB+White LEDs! These NeoPixels now have 4 LEDs in them (red, green, blue and white) for excellent lighting effects. Round and round and round they go!   This is the NeoPixel 1/4 60 LED Ring in Cool White . We have a ton of other NeoPixel rings in the store to check out! With four of these you can make a huge ring with 60 ultra bright smart LED NeoPixels are arranged in a circle with a...

The Arduino Pro Mini is SparkFun's minimal design approach to Arduino.  It's essentially a 3.3v Arduino that runs an 8 MHz bootloader on a super small, super thin board.  There are no connectors attached - allowing you to add whatever connectors or wire you want without too much trouble. The goal of the Pro Mini isn't to replace the Arduino so much as bring the cost down for more advanced users.  The Arduino...

This unassembled pan-tilt kit is the perfect way to give your project customized full range motion! The pan-tilt can rotate roughly 180° from side-to-side and can tilt downwards roughly 150° (it may be less depending on the servos you use, of course).   This version comes in kit form without any servos , unlike our fully assembled version so if you have a bunch of servos already, or want to customize with one of...
