Finally got them through the Pick and Place machine, tested, and ready to go. Check out the blue and green versions! (We're still kicking around a VU-type Greeeeen/Yel/RED version too. What do you think?) By the way, we've got some pretty decent sample code on how to use your Ardweeny Backpack (and thusly, any Arduino-compatible) […]
New Product: Limerick Edition
Dave Hrynkiw
August 18, 2012
I've been wanting to post in limerick, and today I think I'll give it a kick. My co-workers think it's dumb, but I think it's kinda fun. And I'm sure it'll turn out quite slick.
In order to avoid some tough restrictions, I won't use limerick for product descriptions. It'd also make some people sick, and want to beat me with a stick. So I'll switch to normal verse to avoid any conniptions.
This week we have a fancy new video clip, that's a demo for a nifty new LED strip. It's wrapped around in a spool, and looks pretty darn cool. There's also links down below you shouldn't skip.

5V RGB LED Stripxels (1m) $35.00 Don't want to bother with trying to control 12V RGB strips with MOSFETs, well here you go: Solarbotics now carries 5V RGB LED Stripxels which has 32 RGB LEDs per meter that can be individually controlled and only requires a 5V source and TTL Clock & Data signals. How's that for ease of use? |

5V Flat-type RGB LED Stringxels (Strand of 20) $32.00 These are strands of SMART RGB LEDs Pixels, that have been used to create huge outdoor displays, and we've got some in smaller strands for your projects! |

5V Bullet-type RGB LED Stringxels (Strand of 40) $64.00 Want individually-controlled, color changing LED pixels that can be securely mounted in your application and have enough waterproofing to survive outdoors? The 40 strand RGB LED Stringxels are here to save the day! |

Switching Power Supply 5V @ 20A $20.00 When we talk about some of our power supplies & adapters being beefy or buff, sorry, we lied! This Switching Power supply is the Granddaddy of them all, it supplies 5V at 20Amps. |
This is all we got for this Friday afternoon, and we'll be off for the weekend quite soon. We hope you've quite enjoyed this (questionable) poetic employ, and that you don't get crushed by a meteorological balloon.

Another New Gearmotor - The GM19!
Here's a funky motor for you - the GM19! Slightly larger than the other metal gearhead series (GM11-14), and with a larger motor, this 35:1 beasty looks like a good contender for building mini-sumos or other small, speed-hungry robots! But be warned: It is a bit strange. The gearhead is mounted askew to the motor, […]
Fire Stuff, Light Stuff, New Stuff
We don't know about you, but we're ushering in the New Year with a BANG. That's the sound our metaphorical sledgehammer of rage made while we beat the snot out of our internal server this week, after it refused to come into 2012 in an operational status. Fortunately, our crack IT squad has patched up […]
