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.

Hakko FA-400 Smoke Absorber

It's cool. Well, not quite. But it's smoking. Umm,  that's not right, either. It's anti-smoking. Whoever redesigned their 493 smoke absorber did a pretty good job - it's much better than it was before! And Hakko even posted a cool video showing how good it is (sorry, can't embed the video here).

YouTube-tastic

Well folks, we don't have any new products to show off today (I guess we're all too busy watching the Olympics...), but we DO have a small handful of recently uploadedYouTube videos to show off. Dave has been sifting through some of our old archive tapes, and pulled out a few gems, like this footage […]

Hmmm... what's that big truck bringing? ...

Well, what a pleasant surprise - a large truck dropped by today and delivered our shipment of GM10 gear motors! They're $12.00/ea or $9.50/ea USD in pairs ($15.50/ea or $12.75/ea in pairs for Canadians) - much less expensive than converting nanoservos!

3D Printed frame for Line Follower

Ohhh, we like 3D printers. We're working with the local Protospace to fund-raise for a Makerbot. I want to see one of these Line Follower chassis (especially as some of the parts look particularly familiar!). LOVE open source hardware!
