Description

Better grab your sunglasses your sunscreen and a bucket hatbecause this 3W RGB LED is so bright it's like like taking a beach vacation ON THE SUN. Maybe that's an exaggeration but these are reallybright.

This is a 3W RGB LED basically the same thing you've got on a little 5mm breadboard version but with huge chunks of silicon that can handle large currents. Each of the red green and blue dice can handle continuous ~350mA current draw (with peaks of 1000mA). The light output is 110 lumens (110000 millicandela) total.

Each order comes with one 3W LED on an aluminum PCB/holder/heatsilk. Please note that even though the PCB acts as a heatsink 3W is a lot of power to dissipate as heat so you may need an additional heatsink or fan or other cooling mechanism! AdabotAdafruit Metro and components are not included.

If you're looking for an LED that can be made even brighter we also carry a 3-9W RGB version here.
