Advice for buying a Raspberry pi B+ with accessories

Former Member
Former Member over 11 years ago

Hello everyone,

 

I am new to Rasberry pi and want to play around and learn how to make cool stuff with it. I am in Germany and tried ordering the kit from the swag but could not as the currency is just Pounds.

So i tried buying it from the distributor - element14.

 

So here is what i am about to order -

 

1) RASPBERRY PI MODELL B+ BOARD RASPBERRY-MODB+-512M

2) KABEL, HDMI, HIGH SPEED, 1M RP006 (HDMI Cable)

3) SPEICHERKARTE, MICRO-SD, NOOBS, JAVA 8GB MMCTR08GUBCH-RMLMK-FARN/KIT (Memory Card - 8GB)

4) GEHÄUSE, RASPBERRY PI B+, SCHWARZ MC-RP002-BLK (Pi Case)

5) RPI KAMERA-BOARD, 5MP, MIT FLACHKABEL RPI CAMERA BOARD (Camera board)

6) DONGLE, WIFI, USB, F. RASPBERRY PI WIPI (wifi dongle)

 

I have my laptop for the screen and it has a HDMI port. I also obviously have a keyboard and an optical mouse.

Is it enough to get started or am i missing something here? Any kind of advice is appreciated.

    @patrick Binns and @Mark Venn - Following your link somehow i cant change the currency to Euros. It just gives me an option to pay in British pounds. Plus the starter kit does not have the camera board.

    @Patrick Binns - Yes i have done that already and could not find a starter kit that includes model B+. That is the reason I was trying to order it separately.
