60mm Pixel Cabochon – Individually Addressable (24V)
This 60mm RGB pixel cabochon contains an internal pixel module, giving each lamp its own unique address. The classic fairground cabochon size — now with full individual control. Every unit can show a different colour or effect at the same time.
The pixel module inside each cabochon receives its own data signal, so effects are not based on the cabochon's position in the chain. Each cabochon responds to its own address, allowing complete independence between units. The 24V operation means less voltage drop over longer runs.
These cabochons use standard pixel wiring and work with a range of controllers, including:

- ✨ Individually Addressable: Each cabochon has its own address — every lamp can do something different.
- 🎪 Classic 60mm Size: The traditional fairground cabochon for bold, eye-catching displays.
- ⚡ 24V Operation: Less voltage drop over distance; better for larger installations.
- 💡 Bright RGB Output: 5050 SMD pixel LED for vivid, consistent colour.
- 🌧️ Weatherproof IP65: Suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

💡 What Is an Individually Addressable Pixel Cabochon?
These cabochons contain an IC chip (1903 protocol) that gives each unit its own address in the data stream. Unlike position-based systems where all lamps in the same chain position match, individually addressable pixels let you control every single lamp independently — regardless of where it sits in the chain.
In Plain English: Each lamp can show a completely different colour at the same time as every other lamp. The 60mm dome gives you that bold fairground look with full creative control.
