Description
These ultra-slim, pre-mounted e-textile LEDs from Kitronik run off a 3V coin cell battery and are illuminated continuously when powered.
They have connections to which the conductive thread can be connected. These are clearly marked with '+' and '-' to indicate which is positive and which is the negative connection.
The PCBs are double sided making the conductive thread connection very reliable (see example picture below).
Features:
- Ultra Slim Sewable LEDs.
- Double Sided PCBs for reliable connections.
- Clearly marked '+' and '-' connections.
Contents:
- Pack of 10 LEDs (supplied on a small panel, easily removed by snapping them out).
Dimensions:
- Length: 15mm.
- Width: 6.5mm.
- Height: 2.7mm.

Q:
Is it possible to still use these with wire and solder?
A:
Thank you for your question, it is theoretically possible but the boards are designed to work with the electro fashion thread so the dimensions are not ideal for wiring.

Q:
If i am using the pack of 10 with conductive thread is there anything else i will need to buy?
Asked by: Heléna Quinn
A:
To make a basic circuit with the electro-fashion items you would need a coin cell holder to power the circuit along with the correct coin cell, conductive thread and LED’s. You can power a maximum of 6 LED’s from one coin cell holder. A full range of electro-fashion products can be viewed here https://www.kitronik.co.uk/e-textiles-conductive-thread.html

Q:
Hi, I am using some LED's on a GCSE project and would like to use the ultra slim sewable LED's. Can you advise me on how many can be lit with one coin battery. I think I may need as many as 10 on the product we are designing. What would you suggest? Thanks Helen Good
Asked by: Helen Good
A:
There is a limit on how much power you can pull from a coin cell battery. With these LEDs you should be able to connect about five LEDs and not notice a reduction in brightness. If you add more LEDs you won't damage anything, but all the LEDs will become dimmer. With 5 LEDs the coin cell will last approximately 4 hour. Therefore in order to light 10 LEDs you would be best using two coin cell holders, these can be connected together in parallel (i.e. '+' on one to the '+' on the other one and the '-' on one to the '-' on the other one).
