Strip of ultraviolet (Black light) LEDs - do 5V ones exist?
-
This is a hardware question rather than specifically Retropie, but I hope someone can advise - I'm looking for a strip of UV LEDs, the sort of sticky strip you can use for marquee lights in cabs, but as I'm trying to avoid another power supply, I'm hoping to run them off a 5V USB port. The only ultra violet LEDs in a strip I can find appear to be 12V ones, I', wondering if what I'm looking for perhaps just doesn't exist?
Has anyone seen these?
Thanks

@GtBFilms is this what you are looking for? http://m.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=5v+led+strip&isNewKw=1&isRefine=true&mfs=GOCLK&acimp=0&_trksid=p2056088.m2428.l1313.TR3.TRC2.X5v+led+strip&sqp=5v+led+strip
RGB and UV are not the same....

@DorkVonWaterfall so just refining the ebay search to just uv. Is this what you are looking for?

@edmaul69 Nice one, thanks, although not flexible a couple of these bars might just do the trick!
Used to be these were easy to get hold of, every gamers PC was decked out with UV sensitive cables and lights and a big perspex side window - maybe I'm stuck in the 90s!
Thanks for the link!

@GtBFilms i had uv florescent bulbs in mine. And had bought uv reactive motherboard paints. Oh i remember the good old days of making your pc look cool. And you used it for many years. Nowadays people just buy gutter garbage they end up throwing away in 6 months.
