Solarbotics in Canada Computes! We were recently interviewed for an article in the widely-read (well, in Canada anyways) Computer Paper publication. Probably nothing you already know, but we like to toot our own horn. Read More...
New Items!

Besides introducing a whole new batch of Push-Pogopins (and their measurements) into the 'misc' category, we've just introduced our 'D2' Germanium Diode.
This diode is pretty good - better than the 1N270 and 1N34 types, with a voltage dropout of only 0.36V at 50mA! We're not exactly sure what type it is, but since we only have a limited quantity, I suggest you jump on these while we have them.
We also have just introduced the LMP1 and LMP2 Leg Mounting Pads. If you're familiar with our ScoutWalker kits, you'll already be familiar with the technique we use to mount the legs to the servos. We've been getting requests for these things separate from the kit, so we've brought in two styles: The "standard" LM1 regular mounting pads, and the "Heavy" LM2 style like we use in our walker kits.
They're sold in pairs, complete with the tiny screws needed to screw them to practically any servo arm.
More coming soon!
