These LED strips come in 5 meter reels. These strips are sold by the meter! If you buy 5 meters at a time, you'll get full reels with leads at both ends. If you buy less than 5m, you'll get a single...

"You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat.  You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles.  Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way:...

This tiny DC Motor in Micro Servo Body is an interesting motor - it's the same size and shape as our micro servo (like the FS90, FS90R, SG92R) but it isn't a servo. It's more like a DC motor +...

This alcohol gas sensor detects the concentration of alcohol gas in the air and ouputs its reading as an analog voltage. The concentration sensing range of 0.04 mg/L to 4 mg/L is suitable for...

This breakout board is the simplest way to create a project with a single "momentary" capacitive touch sensor. No microcontroller is required here - just power with 1.8 to 5.5VDC and touch the pad to...

Caution! The BBC micro:bit is NOT included. You can buy the BBC micro:bit here. Looking to do more with your BBC micro:bit

Add some colour to your next coding project with our new Halo board for the BBC micro:bit. The Halo has 24 ZIP LEDs, which are individually addressable full colour LEDs. This means that each LED can...

Round and round and round they go! 24 ultra bright smart LED NeoPixels are arranged in a circle with 2.6" (66mm) outer diameter. The rings are 'chainable' - connect the output pin of one to the input...

The Squid Button is a momentary action push switch with trailing leads that end in female header sockets that will fit over GPIO pins on a Raspberry Pi, Node MCU or Raspberry Pi Pico. To reduce the...

This is a 10 Pack of 560 Ohms Resistors. 560 Ohms ±5% 0.25W, 1/4W through hole resistor with flame retardant coating and a safety carbon film. Datasheet

Need some really bright LEDs? We are big fans of these white LEDs. They are very bright and have about 20degree LED beam. They go easily into a breadboard and will add that extra zing to your project...

RGB Pixels are digitally-controllable lights you can set to any color, or animate. Each RGB LED and controller chip is molded into a 'dot' of silicone. The dots are weatherproof and rugged. There are...

Infrared LEDs are used for remote controls (they're the little LED in the part you point at your TV) and 'night-vision' cameras, and these little blue guys are high powered ones! They are 940nm...

These 4-wire cables are 15cm long and come as a set, one side has a JST SM type connector plug on the end. The other side has a matching JST SM type receptacle connector. They are good for whenever...

The IS31FL3731 will let you get back to that classic LED matrix look, with a nice upgrade! This I2C LED driver chip has the ability to PWM each individual LED in a 16x9 grid so you can have beautiful...

IR sensor tuned to 38KHz, perfect for receiving commands from a TV remote control. Runs at 3V to 5V so it's great for any microcontroller. To use, connect pin 3 (all the way to the right) to 5V...

For advanced DotStar LED fans, Adafruit now has a bendable, Flexible 16x16 Dotstar LED Matrix! Control all 256 ultra-bright LEDs using only two microcontroller pins, set each LED as you wish to...

Squeeze once to turn on, squeeze again to turn off! This clicky switch makes a great power switch or mode toggler. We like this switch because it's easy to embed in a seam for easily powering up/off...

Make your own USB connections without slicing apart a USB cable and soldering those thin wires inside. These DIY "USB shells" are available in USB A plug, micro B, mini B and
