These handy adapters let you connect up our awesome LED noodles to Tiny FX, with minimal fuss and without soldering.

What's cool? LED Noodles. What's even cooler? Controlling them with Tiny FX so you can dim, pulse and flicker them on and off. New Hashima, here we come!

The connector that we've used for the noodles was judged 'super easy to use, with low insertion force but good retention' by @scottbez1 in his exhaustive noodle compatibility connector survey. The adaptors have built-in resistors to protect the LEDs (and Tiny FX's outputs), so you don't need to worry about adding external ones.

LED Noodles, Tiny FX, and cables to connect the adapters to Tiny FX are NOT included..

Notes

  • A typical noodle with these adapters draws 75-80mA.
  • You can use these adapters in a few different ways, depending on what you're planning on doing with your noodles:
    • You can plug in both ends of a noodle to a single adaptor if a loop of LEDs is useful.
    • You can use two adaptors (one at each end, making sure + and - match up to the correct ends of the noodle) if you'd rather have the LEDs in a string.
    • Or you can connect two noodles to two adaptors for extra brightness or to alternate between colours.
  • To plug noodles into these adapters, align the metal contact to be horizontal with the adapter and push it into one of the larger round holes. The noodle end with a hole in it should go into the connector side marked +.
  • Unplugging noodles can usually be done with minimal force. If you find that a noodle is being stubborn and won't come out, grab a flathead screwdriver (or tweezers), insert it into the rectangular slit on the AVX connector, and wiggle it about. This will release the noodle letting you pull it out.
  • When plugging and unplugging noodles, we'd suggest holding on as close to the metal end as you can - it's possible to snap the noodle if you pull on it directly.
