KOOKYE Lilypad LEDs Red/Yellow/White/Blue/Green (25x Lilypad LED) Wearable E-Textile Sewable Electronicsfor Arduino Rapsberry Pi Microcontroller Board

I’ve used these for science activities in my classroom. They work perfectly in paper circuits and etextile projects.

These are a good bargain LED to use with conductive thread like that in LilyPad kits. These are not as good as the Lilypad LEDs, but they work well enough. I tend to use a couple extra loops of thread through the holes on these LEDs before continuing the circuit stitching to ensure a good connection to the conductive area and not have any problem lights. I also test each light before using it in a project to avoid headaches.

Im working on a couple of different Lilypad LED projects - a hat and a vest. These are priced right, bright and easy to use. For clothing, conductive thread is the best bet. Im used to the more traditional old-school - use thin wire, solder it to the LEDs and sew the wires in a few spots to keep it in place and pull them through hems and along seams. Conductive thread makes this so much easier. These light up between 2.5 and 5.5 volts (5.5 is the max for Lilypad .) That means that you can power these manually via a USB battery pack.

I like these. Theyre small and easy to incorporate into all kinds of projects. They are clearly labeled with the appropriate color on the back, since they all look the same when not powered on. All of the colors (my set included red, green, blue, white, and yellow) are bright even at lower voltages. Unfortunately they dont come with any data or documentation, but after a little searching it looks like these are 5v components (although I tested at 3.3v and theyre still bright at that voltage).

I was surprised by their small size. It is a good think really because I’m using them for wearable electronics

Having these extra colors (and I also ordered extra thread) means I can go further on one costume or make one color lighting string on the costume. Its really cool seeing something I made light up!

I own and operate a few 3D printers as a hobby and one of my pastimes is designing, printing, and assembling 3D printed LED lights. Ive been wanting to try some SMD LEDs on a light but cant bring myself to butcher up one of the many LED strips I have lying around.

I use these to light my LEGO City, and they are fantastic. My wife is using them to illuminate the cards she makes.

A nice selection of colors. I use these for costume clothing. The built in resistor allows you to work with AA batteries.

I bought these to add to a LilyPad kit I purchased. They work great and are a decent price compared to others I looked at. My daughters and I used them to make light up masks.
