Frequently asked questions

How to calculate the protection resistor?
Check the maximum current on the datasheet and calculate the resistor using the formula R = (V – Vf) / I.

Which colors can it emit?
Can emit RGB colors: red, green, blue.

Can it be used with AC power?
No, it only uses DC power 5V – 12V.

Does the LED chip consume a lot of power?
It consumes 3W, monitor the voltage to avoid overloads.
