By popular demand, you can now get our 1.2" high 8x8 LED matrix backpack without the matrix! These backpacks are equipped with an HT16K33 I2C LED driver, they are simple and easy to use - you can use the backpack library to get backpacks up and running in less than half an hour. If you had raster screens but hesitated because of the complexity, this is the solution you were looking for!

Like our other LED backpacks, these are stackable from end to end and by welding the address jumpers on the back, you can have up to 8 backpacks sharing both the same I2C wires!

Comes with a fully tested and assembled LED backpack and connector. A little light soldering is necessary to fix the connector and, of course, the screen.

The LED matrix is not included.
