Grove – RGB LED (WS2813 Mini)

Following the Grove RGB LED Ring and Grove RGB LED Stick, we now have the Grove RGB LED (WS2813 Mini)!

This Grove-ready RGB LED uses the same WS2813 mini found in the Grove RGB LED ring. It can be programmed with full display colour and be used for connecting other RGB LED rings or RGB LED sticks in series mode.

For example, if you wanted to build an Olympic ring project with LEDs, you can choose Grove RGB LED rings for the Olympic rings and this RGB LED for a bridge to connect the rings together, as they are of the same type and can be driven by the same power supply.
