    Awesome video! Glad you liked the prize pack.

  • Thank you for the prizes! and team.

     

    I was also impatient in opening the prizes! Usually, I wait until I make a video of the Unboxing. But since I opened them immediately I had to do it quite differently (a slide show of the prizes).

    Glad you liked the prizes Dale!

  • When I got home last night there was a parcel from Element14 waiting for me!! It was an early Christmas present, "the Design for a Cause Challenge Finisher Prize". I quickly opened the box like an impatient 5 year old.

     

    Inside I found:

     

    Arduino Mega - Never had one, can't wait to develop with one of these!!

     

    Adafruit TFT Touch Shield for Arduino - This should add that something extra to my projects

     

    Adafruit RGB Matrix Shield for Arduino - Fun with LED's, my favorite pass time

     

    Adafruit Motor/Stepper/Servo Shield for Arduino - Robotics, just what I needed for my next project

     

    Adafruit NeoPixel Shield for Arduino - More fun with this LED matrix

     

    This prize is a very nice collection for my next project and will be greatly enjoyed!! Thank you to our sponsors Arduino, Element14 and our supportive community; without all of you this wouldn't have been possible.

     

    Thank you very much,

    Special Thanks to Element14 Community.

    These items for finishers prize are awesome.

  • in reply to danzima

    The items in the list should be very useful and my mind started thinking of new projects. Did somebody tell you that I love LEDs? I have been planning for a while to get some of the items in the list. Especially the TFT Touch shield since the one had, has some part of the display damaged but still working.

     

    Yay! The mystery has been revealed finally.
