One lucky element14 Community member will win this bundle (sorry, no minors, you must be 18 years of age or older):

 

  • Reply to this post with a short description of why you are interested (1 or 2 sentences is fine)
  • I will pick a winner at random on Monday, August 12, at 5pm US CDT.

 

Disclaimer: I'm located in Chicago and will ship it for free to the winner using the lowest cost option available.  If the winner is located outside the US, then the winner will be responsible for paying any customs fees or duty that may apply.  I will list the value as $50 USD.

 

 

Good Luck!

    You reminded me of what someone said recently, electronics engineering is just about moving "holes" around image  I remember it took me a long time to loose my grudge against "conventional" current flow.

    Just what I need, more free stuff from Drew... Of course if I was the random winner I'd be making a ton of Project LEAD videos. (and probably using those 1/2 and 1/4 size boards for a raffle of my own).

    This would be a great item to win. I am currently creating various projects using robotics and motion detection/security/time lapse with the raspberry pi. Anything of interst I blog about and try to help others gain knowledge. My next project is a motion detected missile launching system with intelligent target tracking system. Hope to have some working examples early september!

    Sweet! I can add velocity to my RPi pool chemistry monitoring project! Anyone know how to tap the tidal flow for energy? We get 5' tides twice a day down here in Jacksonville Beach, Florida!

    This would be great! Adafruit is one of the best places for practical RPi I/O kits.
