Solder Together Flashing RGB LED Project

This project is based around a Flashing RGB LED. The LED can be purchased here.

This is a simple project to get your feet wet with a simple electronic project that can provide an interesting light show thanks to the electronics built into the RGB LED. This project involves some soldering, if you prefer not to solder have a look at this video, crimp connectors are used instead of soldered connections.

How would the process go if i had a 6 pin LED and a mosfet voltage regulator?

@Curtisloew88 3 lead LED, there is 1 ground and 2 positives, Power to 1 lead will make 1 color and same for the other, Power to both should make a different color too.

i have a three leg led flashing led. How would i go about wiring it?

Well I supose if there was like a machine that needed an indicator for it's status (red means off,green on, yellow problem ect. Ect. I do know that they have multicolor LEDs with 4 pins but this is just what I think.

I don't think anybody creates components for the hobby market. There must have been some product this was supposed to be used in.

For "fun"

THIS is much more cleaner and better than the last video !

For what purpose was this LED created? What practical application does it serve? Seems strange a company would build a component like this...
