Last summer during a Solarbotics Robotics for Educators session, one of the teachers noted something about many of the mainstream robotics and electronics learning platforms commonly used in classrooms. He said that those platforms suffered from the Black Box Effect. This effect was where the “black boxes,” the controllers, were plugged into the computer and […]
Friday New Product: Linear Rails, Power ...
Solar botics
November 1, 2013
Halloween is over - lets eat up our pumpkin leftovers, get ready for gift giving season and stock up on some vitamin D for the winter season! For new product today we got Third Hand. That's important. It’s a kit that comes with surgical thread and a little anesthetic fluid as well as a handy mirror similar to the dentist's so that you can sew your new arm wherever you find it handy. Also we got linear rails - only linear, unfortunately. Circular rails would be even better but we don’t carry these ones yet.

Steel Linear Rail, 40cm (15.75") length $50.00 For moving things in a straight, STRAIGHT line, you need linear rails! |

Power Supply Adapter - 12VDC 1A (1,000mA) $6.00 Switching power adapters are solid, efficient, and powerful. Here's 12V at 1A VDC on a barrel jack for your projects. |

Third Hand Kit $34.95 If you don't have a hand growing out of the middle of your chest, you'll need one of these handy tools. |

Switching Power Adapter Brick 5VDC, 5A $16.95 Sometimes 5VDC is good. Sometimes backing it up with 5A is better! This brick power supply is ideal for powering addressable strip LEDs. |
 |
Switching Power Supply Brick 5VDC, 8A $25.00 Have a really heavy 5VDC power requirement? Will an 8A power brick with a regular barrel jack connector do the job? |
Another important new product we present today is a power brick. It's not your regular brick. It’s a power brick. Need more powerful microwaves in your microwave? Smack it with a power brick! Need taller tables? Prop it up with a power brick! You can even use it as a footstool for your cat, just make sure to disconnect the cables so it doesn’t trip.

Arduino Uno and Neeeew York City!
We're back from the Open Source Hardware Summit and the Maker Faire! Did lots; learned lots; got lots of touristy things done too. One of the main highlights was meeting and listening to talks by three of the principle members of the Arduino team. They took pity on English-speakers, and named the new revision the […]
