DIY LED Tracking Light Soldering Kit – X/Y-Axis Adjustable
LOTHYE DIY LED Tracking Light Soldering Kit – Fun Electronics Project for All Skill Levels
Build your own interactive LED follow-spotlight display with this hands-on DIY electronics kit from LOTHYE. Featuring 81 high-brightness red LEDs arranged in a grid, this kit lets you create mesmerizing flowing light patterns that move along the X-axis, Y-axis, or both simultaneously — all controlled at the press of a button. Adjust the movement speed and trigger a variety of flashing effects for an eye-catching result that's as rewarding to build as it is to watch.
⚠️ Please Note: This kit is intended for electronics enthusiasts with prior circuit assembly and soldering experience. Components are verified in good condition before shipping, but successful assembly depends on the builder's skill and experience. Please read all instructions carefully before purchasing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this LED tracking light kit suitable for beginners with no soldering experience?
A: This DIY LED soldering kit is designed for electronics enthusiasts who already have some experience with circuit assembly and soldering. Complete beginners may find it challenging without prior practice. We recommend having a basic understanding of reading circuit diagrams and using a soldering iron before attempting assembly.
Q: What power supply do I need for the LOTHYE LED tracking light kit?
A: The kit requires a 4.5V to 9V DC power supply. A standard regulated DC bench power supply or a set of AA batteries (3×1.5V = 4.5V) will work well. Make sure the power source can supply enough current for 81 LEDs during operation.
Q: Can I control the speed and direction of the LED light effects?
A: Yes! Onboard buttons allow you to move the LED spotlight along the X-axis, Y-axis, or both axes at the same time. You can also adjust the movement speed to produce slow flowing water-light effects or rapid flashing chase patterns across the 81-LED grid.
