LED - RGB Common Cathode (pack of 5)

Ever hear of a thing called RGB? Red, Green, Blue? How about an RGB LED? These 5mm units have four pins - Cathode is the longest pin. One for each color and a common cathode. Use this one LED for three status indicators or pulse width modulate all three and get mixed colors!

Available in both clear and diffused variants, the diffused variant will appear dimmer but have a wider viewing angle

Update: As of January 2018 we've moved to new supplier for these LEDs and so can now sell them in packs of 5!

AMAZING!!! Loved it!! The quality of the screen is amazing!! The only drawback would be the library! I had to create my own. I definitely recommend it!

Bright, crisp display that fits perfectly to my Pi Zero2W. Easy to get working with PIL if you install the current ST7789 driver and examples from GitHub. There doesn't seem to be a way to make it work in portrait orientation. Doubtless there's a workaround somewhere.

Great display. Easy to drive with multiple different libraries available for it. Great display quality, really versatile. Enough info online to allow me to use this display while still using a lot of other GPIO on the Raspberry Pi. Only snag is that the standard library uses software PWM for backlight dimming makign it a bit flickery at very low dim levels. It was a fairly easy mod to change the input to the display module to use a suitable pin equipped with hardware PWM and drive it myself.

Exactly what I needed and wanted, I wanted a bigger display than waveshare for my project, and after editing, and updating specific lines of code, my project was in service.

The display hat looks like a nice bit of kit, the examples work well but... I find it (as a novice) really hard to use.
