Description

  • 【COMPLETE VINTAGE TUBE KIT】 Includes 3 pre-soldered 8-digit MAX7219 displays (1 Red Decimal, 1 Blue Decimal, 1 Red Clock-style with colons), 6 unsoldered 0.28" 4-digit modules (2 Red Decimal, 2 Red Clock-style, 2 Blue Decimal), and 3 standalone MAX7219 driver boards for DIY builds. Six glass tubes with cork stoppers and all accessories included.
  • 【MIX AND MATCH COLORS AND STYLES】 Each MAX7219 driver controls two 4-digit 0.28" displays as one continuous 8-digit display with decimal points or colons. Combine red and blue digits, decimal and clock styles to create your own custom configurations. Three ready-to-use pre-built versions plus six DIY modules give you flexible building options.
  • 【RETRO TUBE-STYLE AESTHETIC】 Insert your assembled MAX7219 display into the included glass tubes with cork stoppers for a unique retro look. Place the included Black Diffusion Sheet above the digits to soften the LED light and create a glow-tube inspired aesthetic. Modern, safe, low-voltage LED technology with no high-voltage hassle.
  • 【UNIVERSAL MCU COMPATIBILITY】 Simple 3-wire SPI signal interface (DIN, CLK, CS) plus 5V power (VCC, GND) — only 5 connections needed. Works with most 3.3V/5V microcontrollers including ESP32, ESP32-S3, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi Pico, STM32, and Micro:bit. Programmable through Arduino IDE, MicroPython, and CircuitPython. Sample code on Lonely Binary GitHub.
