New Product Roundup – September 14th

It’s Saturday and time for another weekly New Product Roundup! This week we have five new additions to the catalogue and a new product of the week to share – lets go have a quick look!

New Products
First up this week is a pair of USB 3.1 Flash Drives – these are available in 8 and 32GB and work really well as additional storage on the Raspberry Pi 4. USB 3.0 performance means they take advantage of the Pi 4’s USB 3.0 capabilities. Sticking with the Pi, we have also added a 3′ / 1 meter version of our HDMI Micro to HDMI cable. Since the Pi 4 uses a pair of Micro HDMI ports rather than a standard HDMI port, these are necessary for connecting up monitors to the new Pi. Next up, we have a new NEMA 5-15P (Standard Wall Outlet) to bare leads breakout cable. These are use with our Mean Well power supplies! Finally, we have another new propeller to add to your collection. These are 70mm in diameter and fit a 2mm shaft.

Product Of The Week – 50% Off!
Product of the Week is our Large Solderless Breadboard. These are essential for prototyping circuits before soldering them together and great for experimenting with. 50% Off until Friday at midnight – so don’t miss out!
