New Product Roundup – October 1st to October 7th

We have a very focused New Product Roundup to kick off October. This week is all about Onion – we now have the Onion Omega2 line of simple Linux single board computers! The Omega is specifically designed for hardware applications – think of it as something similar in connectivity and programming flexibility to the Raspberry Pi with the power-efficiency of an Arduino. This combination of efficiency, flexibility, and connectivity makes it an ideal IoT board. Let’s go have a closer look at the Onion products we have added this week!

New Product Roundup – September 17th to September 23rd

Another Saturday means another New Product Roundup! Probably the most exciting news this week was our announcement of our flat rate shipping charge dropping to $11.95 for all Canadian Customers – but in addition to that we added a bunch of new products to the shop as well! This week we have some great new EL wire products from SparkFun – just in time to get started with those glowing Halloween projects! We have also added a new 2.5 x 5.5mm DC barrel plug for all of those devices that don’t fit the 2.1mm plug. Let’s go have a closer look!

Fall 2017 Update

Fall is just about here – it was a great summer but now it is time to get back to it! We felt this was a good time to update everyone on what we have been up to and what is in store for the future.

Shipping:
To start we have been quite busy making changes to our shipping system. Nothing is worse than spending too much on shipping; this is money that could be better spent on new tools, sensors, and other goodies. Canadian Customers will notice that starting today Standard Shipping prices have been slashed to $11.95 CAD.
