What is an LED?

  • LEDs have polarity. The longer terminal connects to the dough with the red battery pack wire, and the shorter terminal connects to the dough with the black battery wire.
  • When used with Squishy Circuits LEDs will break and need to be replaced over time. Expect a few hours of use
  • Standard LEDs from other sellers will work but may not be as large, bright, etc.
  • Classrooms or clubs may be interested in our long-LEDs wires.Squishy-circuits-21595-Components-Explained-V2-1

  • Buzzers have polarity.
  • Tape placed over the top reduces their volume.Squishy-circuits-21595-Components-Explained-V2-2 Squishy-circuits-21595-Components-Explained-V2-3

Motors

  • A motor creates motion when electricity flows through it.
  • Motors spin clockwise or counterclockwise based on the wire orientation. They don’t have polarity.Squishy-circuits-21595-Components-Explained-V2-4 Squishy-circuits-21595-Components-Explained-V2-5
