Can I connect a 5V LED strip directly to Arduino? - Project Guidance - Arduino Forum

Hi Arduino community! I am excited to be working on my second project and have a few questions about using an LED strips, which I could not find answers for via Google. My project is essentially lighting up a retro "on air" box, like you might see at a radio or TV station. I want the Arduino to light up one strip of LEDs, and then turn them off and light up a second strip. It is essentially a "traffic light" project, except it only has two lamps. I have two short strips of non-addressable 5050
