5050 RGB LED with Integrated Driver Chip - 10 Pack

5050 (5mm×5mm) RGB LED with integrated WS2811-compatible driver; ~18mA constant current per channel, powered at 5V. This is the 6-pin 'S' revision — pinout differs from the 4-pin 'B' revision; not pin-compatible for PCB swap. Chainable via single data line. Pack of 10.
