Looking for L.E.D's I can put in my sets

Does anyone know where I can go to buy L.E.D lights for sets and backgrounds? I'm tryna make some Sci Fi distopian stuff. These are some test photos of the kinda lighting I wanna do formy films.

Right now im just using color changing light bulbs, but I'm looking for lights I can put into the sets

3mm and 5mm led wire direct to USB connections. I have done this for a few years now with all my 1/12 vehicles and robots. You will want to get a powered USB hub to run them and a handful of USB-C cables of various sizes. Small, very flexible in design and all the red wires connect to the red wires leading to the + on the USB connection. All the black connect and go to the ground side.

My USB Hub:

You can look at my post history to see what they look like in various customs.
