Regarding the Adafruit UV LED Strip (SKU: ADA3851). I see that this requires a 5V power supply. Could you use the 5V pin of an Arduino Uno instead?

Hey Chris

The answer is yes, kinda. The current needed to run an Uno is fairly small compared to the ~2A that are needed for these lights so depending on the limits of the supply the Uno may struggle though if you get a supply that can handle the load you should be fine.
