## Overview

The Adafruit 1621 White LED Backlight Module features a 45x86mm acrylic-diffused lit area that provides uniform white light from a single LED. Operating at 3 volts and 20 milliamps, it offers bright illumination with low power consumption, ideal for wearable electronics and display backlighting. Its rigid acrylic strip includes a reflector for maximum brightness and supports easy customization with gels or markers.

## Description

These pretty strips of light are plastic diffused backlights, often seen in LCD displays. Normally they're tucked behind the LCD and shine white light from below. Here, we've got the LEDs available individually and they're really cool! each LED is encased in a 3.5mm thick strip of a acrylic. The acrylic strip is a special Type that is very good at diffusing light, so even though there is only one single white LED, it provides near-uniform lighting. The other flat side of the strip has a reflector on it so you only get light from the top (otherwise the backlight would lose 1/2 the brightness unnecessarily). you can treat this backlight just like an LED, light with 3V at 20MA current and you get a pretty shape that you can mask with vinyl or draw over with marker. Gels can be used to change the color. We Think these would make great wearable electronics without the need for El or inverters, they're much brighter than El and use less battery. The trade-off is these are not flexible at all.
