This week on the Great Search, we saw a post on social media asking for good quality through-hole 1% resistor kits. (https://twitter.com/mightyohm/status/1772784883313836284). We've bumped into the same issue as Jeff, where getting inexpensive kits are poorly packaged and are '1/8W' style with skinny leads that do not grip into breadboards. Thankfully, DigiKey has such in stock - let's check out t...

Back in 2021 we were on a real tear (https://blog.adafruit.com/?s=trinkey) making a whole bunch of 'low cost and easy to use' USB devices called Trinkeys (https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=trinkey): the idea is you could just shove it into your USB A port on a computer or laptop and get instant access to a few NeoPixels (https://www.adafruit.com/product/4870) or an APDS9960 proximity sensor (https...

Once in a while we find products that have center NEGATIVE DC power jacks and they really make us mad because who keeps around both positive and negative polarity versions of every voltage? now, hopefully USB PD https://www.adafruit.com/product/5807 will solve this long term, but till then this 2.1mm DC flipper flopper adapter will connect in to out and out to in and voila - your standard center-p...

We got a request from some folks for "solder-less pin header" - these snap-apart headers look just like your regular pin headers but they have a little slot in the shorter end that can make a cold-contact with pads on a PCB. only thing is, since they are wedged in, you need some good leverage and it takes a few tries to get the hang of it. but they do work, we checked continuity! for quick prototy...

This week we chanced upon this post from toybuilder about pre-crimped ribbon cables (https://twitter.com/toybuilder/status/1771226899374657600) and it gave us major deja-vu because we used almost the exact same cables when designing the X0XB0X kit (https://www.ladyada.net/make/x0xb0x/fab/parts.html) to 'jumper' between the mainboard and I/O board. Let's take a look if these are still stocked at Di...
