Finer Details About NeoPixel Rings

When soldering wires to these rings, you need to be extra vigilant about solder blobs and short circuits. The

spacing between components is

very

tight! It’s often easiest to insert the wire from the front and solder on the

back.

If using alligator clips, we recommend first soldering short jumper wires to the ring inputs and connecting the

clips to those, for similar reasons.

(Some of our tutorials and product photos do show alligator clips directly

connected to the rings, but we’ve had a lot of experience using them.)
