Moving ActiveTech

Solar botics
April 23, 2018

As some of you know, ActiveTech is changing locations and merging operations with Solarbotics. The retail store is going to take the space where the former RnD lab was, and we've been working hard to prepare that area for the move-in.

Here are some  pictures of transforming the lab into retail space. First, all of the internal walls needed to be torn down:

Goodbye cozy offices:

Demolition is fun:

All the electrical hanging out:

Then we repainted the walls with a nice grey.

Start bringing in product shelves. It is going to be Asian-store-style, top-to-bottom-crammed-with-product tight!

More pegboard shelving:

The mezzanine behind the lab has also been rearranged from random storage space - to product storage space.

Stay tuned for more updates on the move - we should be fully relocated by May 1st, and check out the moving sale that is currently going on at ActiveTech.

New Pogo Push Probes in stock

I can't imagine why, but some people want to use these push pogo pins for other uses than robot appendages. Or battery contacts. Apparently they're really good for something called "JTAG applications" too, but I'll leave that up to you to decide. Scroll down to see them listed in the "New Items" column.
