We are going to continue with some nice Grove products and mix it up with other bits and pieces. More sensors, a SparkFun LiPo charger, and some raw parts round out this session.
So, like, it's that magical time of year where we of Albertaville, Canada get a long weekend. We don't even have a reason anymore. We just figure that we ought to have one, so we come up with a name that sounds semi-official and run with it. "Quick, we need to figure out what to call our August long weekend holiday!" "Uhh... Heritage Day? Yeah, that sounds all right. Everyone has some heritage they can celebrate. Heritage is an important thing, I hear." And thus Heritage Day was born, and had those two men had the conversation a day later, we very well may have been celebrating National Tuna Fish Appreciation Day. And thus, Solarbotics and HVW Tech we will be closed on Monday, August 1st for the consuming of tuna salad sandwiches celebrating our heritage. You know what do do.
So how does one celebrate their heritage, anyways? In this case, we're celebrating our electronics heritage by getting to know our distant, twice removed, once put back, and three more times removed great seventh cousin, SparkFun. We go waaaay back to... A while ago. Anyways, we're celebrating our SparkFun heritage ('Colorado' starts with a C, and 'Calgary' starts with a C, so I'm pretty sure we have something in common) by putting up a smattering of their shiny new stuff. Most of these are actually items that we've been carrying for a bit already, but have been semi-recently updated to a new version. On with the show:
And that's all we got. Regardless of whether or not you have some heritage to use as an excuse to enjoy the weekend, we hope that everyone will... Enjoy the weekend.
