Description / 0807 SMD RGB Slow Changing - Ultra Bright LED

The 5mm Red/Green/Blue (RGB) LED (Round Top, Clear) is the standard through-hole LED for automatic RGB color cycling (slow transition) — no controller needed, just apply power. Clear lens with a focused 120 Degrees beam — bright and directional, the classic DIP LED that fits every breadboard, panel bezel, and holder on the market.

The 5mm (T-1¾) is the most popular LED size in the world — the standard for breadboard prototyping, hobby projects, panel indicators, and every electronics starter kit. Fits all 5mm holders and bezels.

Self-cycling at slow speed — no controller or programming needed.

Common applications

  • Eye-catching displays: Auto-cycling RGB that transitions slowly and smoothly through red, green, blue, and blended colors. Perfect for attention-getting retail displays, trade show demos, and event decorations.
  • Cosplay and prop accents: Color-shifting energy cores, magical artifacts, sci-fi tech panels. No controller board needed — simplifies wiring inside costumes.
  • Arcade cabinet attract mode: Color-cycling accent lighting that draws players to the cabinet.
  • Holiday and seasonal displays: Multi-color accent without programming.
  • Children's projects and gifts: Mesmerizing color show from a single LED + battery. Great for science fair and STEM demos.

Standard T-1 3/4 through-hole footprint. Fits all 5mm LED holders, bezels, and panel-mount clips. Add a current-limiting resistor matched to your supply voltage — see our LED Resistor Calculator for the exact value.

Need a wider beam? See our 5mm Diffused Round Top LEDs (soft glow, no hotspot) or 5mm Straw Hat LEDs (120–140° wide angle).

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Standard LEDs require a current-limiting resistor matched to your power supply voltage. Use our LED Resistor Calculator at /blog/led-resistor-calculator.html to find the exact value.
Clear lens LEDs produce a focused, directional beam (15-30 degrees) — bright when viewed head-on. Diffused lens LEDs scatter light evenly for a soft glow visible from all angles. Use clear for signals and indicators; use diffused for ambient lighting and props where the LED is visible.
Yes. Connect through a current-limiting resistor (typically 220-330 ohm for 5V) to any digital output pin. The LED Resistor Calculator can help you find the exact value for your setup.

DC power recommended: LEDs are designed for DC. Running on AC will cause flickering and reduce lifespan. If you're using a low-voltage AC source — such as a model railroad transformer output or DCC track voltage — convert it to DC first with a bridge rectifier.

Also available: 3mm (smaller)
