Adam Conus sent us a nice little message about his antweight combat robot The Fly.: Western Allied Robotics is kicking off another year of antweight combat events and I need new motors. (Because I'm very, very hard on them!) Still, they're cheap and light. Check out- http://home.comcast.net/~conusa/adam.htm to see the robot complete with solarbotics sticker!
New Product: LED Strips
Solar botics
May 2, 2017
A brilliant selection of new smart LED strips with various features. They are addressable, white RGB, or full-color RGBW, available on spools or per meter to add blindingly bright effects to your project. Some so bright, we had to shoot them at 1/4 power to avoid freaking out the camera exposure.

5V RGB Addressable Serpentine Stripxel (48/M, 2.5M spool) 64.95 CAD / 49.95 USD This strip uses narrow 5mm construction using a little "S" bend between each LED, you can peel the backing and stick them down into actual curves that don't kink out. |

5V StripStar Addressable WHITE ONLY 144/M LED strip 79.95 CAD / 59.95 USD This strip allows you to pack a very dense, accurately controlled illumination strip into a project that lets you feature incredibly smooth, fast effects. |
