RGB LCD Shield

Post by pkainga »

Hello,

I have finally built the RGB LCD Shield. Linked below.

https://learn.adafruit.com/rgb-lcd-shield

I cant find the power cable for it in the package I received, I don't know which one to get.

What power cable/supply do I need to get to get it powered?

Thank you ladies and gents!

There is no power cord for the shield. It is intended to be plugged into an Arduino and gets its power directly from the Arduino.

If you want to run it detached from the Arduino, you will need to connect 4 jumper wires from the Arduino to the shield. These are not supplied in the kit.
