I completely forgot about this video, which I recorded just before travelling.

I've not got an optimal recording area set up yet due to the quirky nature of the furniture in my room. The camera may end up a bit further away from the temporary bench than usual.

Inside 12v fixed colour LED sign pixels

Although I've featured the 5V version of these before I have avoided the 12V version because I thought they might just be the same as the 5V version with a higher value resistor. But they're not. They use special higher voltage LEDs so the current per pixel is much lower than the 5V version for a given number of pixels. I took one apart to explore and took a look at the LED arrangement inside one of the LEDs.
