Adafruit sells ultraviolet Neopixel strips. Has anyone here seen any good projects using them?

How well can you tell which pixels are on when they're not visible light?

Hey fellow Neopixel/WS2812 fans: know of any in-production versions of smaller LED rings using 3535- or 2020-sized WS2812/SK6812 LEDs? (as opposed to the standard 5050 sizes most rings use) Seems like it’d be a great solution for putting around pots/encoders. I can’t find any on Ali

Video for my Stray robot head is finally done! I wanted to get it up before Magfest and have just barely made it!
