This fantastic new ‘Electro-Fashion’ range from Kitronik has been specially designed so electronics can be used in textiles. They allow lighting effects to be added to textile designs without soldering.
The kits use ‘conductive thread’ which is a thread that can be used like cotton thread but conducts like a wire.
The sewable LED bulk pack provides enough parts for 60 students and works out at
The bulk pack includes:
- 60 sewable/stitchable coin cell holder
- 60 CR2032 lithium coin cells
- 4 reels of conductive thread each 50 yards long.
