Friday New Product: Different Things and...

Solar botics
August 2, 2013

Winter is not quite here yet. But close. It’s the second day of the last day of summer in 2013 today, according to the calendar at least. So lets prepare to that early by making sure all the new products are looked at. Now, how that makes sense? I am not sure. This was just to get your attention.

Adafruit Assembled Data Logging shield for Arduino
$19.95
The engineers at Adafruit have come up with a nice little datalogger shield, this time (mostly) assembled!
Arduino Robot Bonanza by Gordon McComb
$32.95
Gordon McComb keeps churning out useful books, this time adapting his Robot Bonanza to use the Arduino.
Hacking Electronics: An Illustrated DIY Guide for Makers
$33.95
Simon Monk writes another useful book about getting right into hacking electronics. Great for impatient builders!
JST RCY Male & Female 17cm Power Cable Set
$1.00
Small and tidy, high power JST RCY / BEC battery plugs, 17cm (6.7") male/female set.
SLVR-1 Power Supply
$15.00
It's a handy power-breakout, featuring barrel-jack input, and multiple 5V regulated, unregulated, and USB-compatible power taps.

Oh, and one more thing, fellow civilians, or non-fellow civilians from other places. On Monday August 5th we are celebrating something plainly called Civic Holiday. Apparently all the other holidays are therefore deemed non-civic, except for this one. For that reason Solarbotics will be closed, and all the emails, phone messages and orders will receive all the due attention they need the next day.

Friday New Product: Metric Hardware

It's another Friday and we are back with the product that makes sense - it is metric! It is not measured in twips, poppyseeds, barleycorns, yards, furlongs, or any of this funny stuff. It's your good old straightforward decimals. Metric 2.5mm Hex Nut - 25 Pack $4.00 Metric M2.5 Hex Nut, in packs of 25, […]

MakerBEAM

Ok, besides being a conjunction of two things we really love (Make Magazine & BEAM Robotics), it also is an open-source hardware project that is about little "T-Beams". This project is using the "KickStarter" model of sponsorship. Ask for pledges for the projects, and if the minimum is met (and it has - yay!), the […]

Arduino Book...and the Pendulum Swing!
