Hi all! We've distilled this year's solar cell summer-solstice tests into a nice, pretty set of PDF files. Want to know the power curves of our solarcells? Check it out here!
Well, we've taken a few days off to enjoy some turkey and presents, and we've come back to the office to keep chugging away... But it's time for another break! New Year's is within spitting distance, and we'll be closed for New Years Day (that, of course, would be Friday, January 1st). As always, we'll resume processing/shipping orders and replying to any correspondence the following Monday. We hope everyone has had a great year and that 2010 will be even better.

But only if they can meet the above design requirements. Feel free to even draw up some rough concepts and send them over - just remember that the simple designs are generally better. Take a look at the existing PumLantern designs or the shell source files if you need something to reference to.

We developed this walker kit based on criteria generated by ourselves and Solarbotics' distributor Steve Jones at "Bug'n'Bots". Steve wanted something new to feature at the ECRG workshops, and the ScoutWalker III is the results! […]
We are closed for Canada Day, July 1st and the following day. We are sorry for any inconveniences, we will reopen on July 3rd and will be open for the rest of the week. We will be open on Independence Day July 4th. Happy Canada Day! Read More...
We're drawing to a close of the Mark Tilden/Solarbotics B.I.O.Bug contest.
