This is for people who just want to get cold fast. The 12V Peltier module is mounted onto a 12V heatsink and fan assembly with thermal paste and an aluminum clamp. Simply connect to 12V 5A+ power supply and you will see frost appear on the aluminum plate within a minute. This assembly comes with the best Peltier we could get, so it can get even colder than the...

This snappy 8-way joystick beckons you to play with it! It is rugged, and not too large, reminiscent of a Pac Man arcade cabinet. Unlike the potentiometer-based 2-axis and mini thumbsticks, this joystick uses 4 snap microswitches so it's good if you want a directional control but not the best choice if you want proportional output (that is, its either on/off not...

This is hot! Literally! Apply 5-12VDC and the stainless steel fibers in this heating fabric will warm up, creating a little heating pad. On one hand, it's just a gigantic resistor. On the other hand, it's flexible, light, and can be wrapped around a project. Originally designed for portable wearable heating pads, this fabric can be used for wearables, weather...

Keep it cool with a Peltier module. These unique electronic components can generate a temperature differential when powered. That is to say, apply 5V to the red (positive) and black (negative) wires and one side will get cold while the other side gets hot. For best results, you'll need to wick away that heat (otherwise the cold side will slowly get warmer). A fan...

Keep your electronics from going barefoot, give them little rubber feet! These small sticky bumpers are our favorite accessory for any electronic kit or device. They are sticky, but not impossible to remove. They're small enough to fit onto any board, and have just enough height to give clearance to thru-hole soldered components. We love them so much we include them...

Pipe audio in or out of your project with this very handy breadboard-friendly audio jack. It's a stereo jack with disconnect-switches on Left and Right channels as well as a center ground pin. You can use any 3.5mm stereo cable with this jack. The pins are on 0.1" spacing so it plugs very solidly into a breadboard, perma-proto or perf-board. Each order comes with one...

Hey want to hear a really loud noise? Apply 3V to 5V to this buzzer module and you'll be rewarded with a loud 2KHz BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP. Unlike a plain piezo, this buzzer does not need an AC signal. Inside is a piezo plus the driver circuitry that makes it oscillate at 2KHz. On one hand, that makes it really great for integrating into projects because you don't need...

Listen up! This 1.1" (~30mm) diameter speaker is the perfect addition to any breadboard-based audio project where you need 8 Ohm impedance, and have 0.2W or less of power. The two pins are 15mm / 0.6" apart and fit perfectly in a breadboard or perfboard. This speaker has a durable protective plastic casing that's still lightweight. Works great with our Wave shield or...

Stop fiddling with micro SD card sockets in the back of your latest gadget during development, and give yourself a little more elbow room with this Small Micro SD Card Extender. This is a great hack for length constraints with 3D printers, single-board computers, data-logging kits and more. Get to your micro SD card in and out without using your fingernails! Insert...

Sometimes a simple analog control device can be the perfect tactile solution for your project, but they can be surprisingly hard to come by. Luckily we've found a low-cost, quality Mini Analog Joystick to fill your directional analog input needs! Unlike most arcade-style joysticks, which come with four clicking switches, this product has two 10KΩ potentiometers...

What do you get when you power a layer of liquid crystal material sandwiched between two sheets of glass? A Liquid Crystal Light Valve (a.k.a a LCD Controllable Black-out Panel)! They're often used for electric welding helmets because they can protect the welder's eyes from the bright sparks. Or – if you aren't a welder – they can be used to provide a...

Before SSDs or USB keys or email attachments or SD cards or even CD-ROMs, there was the mighty floppy disk! These lil guys could store about a megabyte or so of files in their cool square shapes, using a magnetic circle that could be encoded to read or write your files as it spun. Wild, right? Well you might still have some diskettes around that need accessing, and...

Turn any surface/wall/table etc into a speaker with a surface transducer. This type of speaker does not have a moving cone like most speakers you've seen. Instead, a metal rod is wrapped with the voice coil. When current is pulsed through the coil, the magnetic field causes a piece of metal to expand and contract - and if it's pressed against a surface it turns the...

A new tiny squishy delight! This Black Rubber Joystick Nubbin Cap is the perfect add-on to any of your projects with a 5-way navigation joystick, like our Adafruit Mini Color TFT with Joystick FeatherWing or Adafruit 128x64 OLED Bonnet for Raspberry Pi.
