With some development boards, low power usage is an afterthought. Especially when price and usability are the main selling points. So what should you do when it's time to turn around and make that project of yours run on a battery or solar? Sure you  could  try to hot-air that regulator off, or you could jerry-rig a relay. Or, use a 555? Ugh, the options aren't that great. The  Adafruit TPL5111 Reset Enable Timer  is...

This 4-wire cable is a little over 150mm / 6" long and fitted with JST-PH female 4-pin connectors on each end.

This Panel Mount 10K Dual Logarithmic Potentiometer w/ On-Off Switch  is a two-in-one; you get a dual-ganged potentiometer an d an on-off switch. For the potentiometer-half, you've got a dual standard log-taper 10Kohm potentiometer, with a grippy shaft. It's smooth and easy to turn, but not so loose that it will shift on its own. It also comes equipped with an on/off switch at the beginning of the shaft's rotation....

This potentiometer is a two-in-one: it's a log taper 10K ohm potentiometer , with a grippy shaft an d it comes with an on-off switch . It's smooth and easy to turn, but not so loose that it will shift on its own. We like this one because the legs are 0.2" apart with pin-points, so you can plug it into a perfboard. Note the spacing on the switch/pot pins is 0.2" so it wont work in a solderless breadboard as nicely, unless you...

We're always digging around for various test lines to use with our power supply - whether we're checking current draw of our Feather, or trying out new LED samples. We picked up one of these and its so handy we use it all the time now. It's compact and has three of the most useful connectors on the end. Great for use with your bench top equipment or even a multimeter with banana jacks. Each connector has two banana plugs that go into...

Add heat-vision to your project and with an Adafruit AMG8833 Grid-EYE Breakout! This sensor from Panasonic is an 8x8 array of IR thermal sensors.

It's like those fancy thermal cameras, but compact and simple enough for easy integration. This part will measure temperatures ranging from 0°C to 80°C...

For winding custom coils, or very fine-pitch rework, we always reach for magnet wire . Magnet wire is very very thin (0.1mm diameter!) copper wire with a very thin layer of insulation. It's used for a range of electronics, hacking and making applications. Commonly these are used for winding transformers, inductors, motor or solenoid coils, speakers, hard disk head actuators, electromagnets, pickups, among other things. However, this wire is...

The 1.3" 168x144 SHARP Memory LCD display is a cross between an eInk (e-paper) display and an LCD. It has the ultra-low power usage of eInk and the fast-refresh rates of an LCD. This model has a gray background, and pixels show up as black-on-gray for a nice e-reader type display. It does not have a backlight, but it is daylight readable. For dark/night reading you may need to illuminate the LCD area with external LEDs. The bare...
