Active Tech Mail-Out and COVID-19 Polici...

Hey Everyone,

Sometimes the stars align and everything goes right... however, this was not the case for our recent sales flyer. Despite our best efforts to cancel/delay/time travel, it was sent out to the local Calgary area today. While we are still honoring the sale (with an extension until April 12th while supplies last), we highly recommend that customers phone-in their order! We will process and pack your order for pickup at the door to reduce the potential spread of COVID-19. If you would like your items shipped within the Calgary area, we are offering a $10.00 flat rate with some exclusions applied for large or heavy items like 3D printers. Credit card and e-transfer are the payment options available over the phone.

To promote social distancing we encourage all customers to use shipping or order pick-up!

Please call us at 1-866-276-2687 or locally 1-403-232-6268.

We are still allowing guests to browse our store-front but we ask you to please review and adhere to the following:

  • Warning: Our store is compact, and it is difficult to maintain the desired 1 to 2M “social interaction spacing” as recommended.
  • We frequently sanitize our work surfaces and wash our hands but please only touch what is required to make your purchase.
  • If you have fever, cough or difficulty breathing, do not enter. Follow the COVID-19 health guidelines, get yourself home, isolate yourself, and phone-in your order for mail delivery (or we’ll ask for your Mama’s phone number, and then tell on you).
  • We are limiting the number of customers in-store based on our staffing and 1/2 maximum occupancy.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during these difficult times and we will continue to do our best to assist with combating the spread of COVID-19.

Sincerely,

The Solarbotics-Active Tech Team.

Solarbotics WCRG mini-sumo workshop

The night before WCRG, and all through the office, not a creature was stirring...except two dozen mini-sumo robots - AAAHH! Thanks to Alberta Printed Circuits, we were able to sponsor a mini-sumo workshop to build 24 robots to compete in the next day's Western Canadian Robot Games.

Synapse Wireless, LCD Clearance Sale

The Googles tell us that 'synapse' is defined as "a junction between two nerve cells, consisting of a minute gap across which impulses pass by diffusion of a neurotransmitter." This, however, is one of the rare instances where The Googles are wrong, because what Synapse actually is (according to Jeremie, our tech guy) are RF engines […]
