Monday February 17 is Family Day in Alberta (where we are), and President's day in the USA. So we're going to be out playing in the snow today. See you tomorrow!

February 11, 2013
As Valentine's Day is fast approaching and the geeky internets are full various fuzzy, sugary, and/or blinky items of unknown nature in different shades of red and pink... We find ourselves with nothing to say on that particular topic. Instead, we bring you a double dose of new product, check it out:
|
Arduino Micro $24.95 All the features of the Arduino Leonardo at a fraction of the size! The Arduino Micro is quite versatile as it's big enough for breadboard prototyping, but small enough for permanent installations. |
 |
Micro Deans Plug (Pair) $1.00 Micro Deans plugs are usually used in RC vehicle applications, but can also be used for all kinds of other high current, small form factor projects. They even have a polarity protection feature built into the design, bonus! |
 |
Precut Kit 2 – Small Lengths $80.00 If you find it annoying to cut the 1m open beam extrusions down to size - you can now rejoice! OpenBeam precut lengths are here! Offered in a conveniently packaged kit, these precut pieces are ideal for designing all kinds of interesting structures. |
 |
15.5D mm Metal Gearmotor Bracket $4.95 Long have we waited for an efficient way to mount micro metal gearmotors to our projects, that day has finally arrived! The 15.5D mm metal gearmotor Bracket has come to save the day, who needs Superman... |
On the other hand, that Deans Plug would look great dipped in chocolate! Mmmm... The right colour too... And those L joining plates look like hearts... What?! Ugh, I'd better go do some anti-sentimental soldering before it's too late.

Circuit: Lightstorm
Some of you may have found the LightStorm Pummers that Mark Tilden has made using some neat looking plastics. We've built our own variation of the circuit, which is a dark-activated, quad-bicore pseudo-random chaos generated, dual pummer circuit.

I created this choker as a project to demonstrate the new MicroNova APA102-2020 LED strips. Photo by Yeti, edited by Batgirl These addressable LEDs are extremely small, less than 1/4 the size of a standard 5050 LED. This project was built using engineering sample standard MicroNova 99 LED / meter strips . The MicroNova strips we […]
Vancouver BEAM Workshop
Here's a few links to a workshop spear-headed by ScottyDogma in Vancouver, B.C. Some impressive work done using servos, BIOBug motors, some wooden spacer blocks and lots of soldering! Nice job, guys.
