Kitronik USB LED Strip with Light Sensor

The Kitronik USB LED Strip with Light Sensor is designed for low-power lighting projects. It features an onboard light sensor ideal for night lights or desk illumination that activates the LEDs when ambient light levels drop. The sensor can be bypassed with a side-mounted 3-position switch to provide continuous lighting.

The strip is powered via USB (under 100mA) and includes 5 bright LEDs with a luminous intensity of approximately 8000mCd, a phototransistor light sensor, and a three-way switch for controlling the LED operation. The PCB measures approximately 50mm x 10mm x 4.5mm and features a mounting hole for easy installation. It also has GND and +5V pads for alternative power sources.
