So apparently Monday here in Albertaland is "Heritage Day". Which, quite frankly, sounds rather uninspiring. Don't get me wrong - any excuse for a statutory holiday is a good one. But the name seems rather vague and underwhelming. And thus I began my quest to find the true meaning of Heritage Day. So as any […]

|
BPS SB300 Solderable Breadboard (360 tie-points) $3.99 Want to move quickly from prototype to permanent project? Transfer your half-size breadboarded circuit to this tight pin for pin breadboard compatible protoboard to create a rugged long-lasting prototype! |
 |
BPS SB400 Solderable Breadboard (540 tie-points) $4.99 Want to move quickly from prototype to permanent project? Transfer your half-size breadboarded circuit to this complete pin for pin breadboard compatible protoboard to create a rugged long-lasting prototype! |
 |
BPS SB404 Solderable Breadboard (626 tie-points) $4.99 Want to move quickly from prototype to permanent project? Transfer your half-size breadboarded circuit to this convenient breadboard compatible protoboard (with mounting holes & silkscreening) to create a rugged long-lasting prototype! |

Project Monday: Pingbot
Tom from our Facebook page recently showed us his latest project, the Pingbot. In Tom's words, it's "a very small (38mm diameter), usb rechargeable, programmable, musical, remote control robot designed for maximum fun and danceability." We don't know about you, but danceability should be a priority on every robot's feature list. Check out some video […]
Escaps back in stock!
Well, the last batch of Escap gearmotors went very fast. Let's hope this batch lasts a bit longer! Unlike the last set, this set has a higher reduction ratio of 663:1 instead of 362:1. This means it starts turning 0.46V (!) drawing only 3.3mA (!!) It's a 3V rated motor, but our tests show that […]
