Revision as of 13:11, 4 November 2017

This page will attempt to put together a list of parts for a "cheap" arduino kit that might be suitable for school use. We will start sourcing on ebay and amazon, then perhaps branch out. Be aware that sources and prices change fast so this will get out of date fast.

Components

  • Arduinos -- must be usb
  • Prototyping Bread Board
  • Wire for proto board
  • Components to do what??
    • IR reciever - cause remote control is cool.

Sourcing

I will assume that the buyer has Amazon Prime, and that the Ebay prices include ( the often free ) shipping. Note that Prime shipping is usually much faster than Ebay, and while its prices ( now ) seem to be higher, the time factor sometimes makes it worth it.

Arduino

  • USB
  • Proto Board Friendly
  • Willing to do some soldering to save money
  • Indifferent to speed or lots of IO as long as it has the basics


useful search arduino nano usb with cable

Proto Board

  • Ebay $2.50
  • Amazon $3.00 - $7.00 ( higher price has voltage regulator )



Proto Wire

Salvage from old phone wire or ethernet cable.

IR Sensor

For now get with transmitters.

IR Transmitter

Seem easy to get with sensor so go for both.

  • Ebay, about $1.50
  • Amazon arout $6.00

and Some Results

Search Amazon and Some Results

LED and Suitable Resistor

  • Some color
  • Some Bright White ??

Get in kits, one kit per class of 10 ( or more ) should do.

LCD

Nice to have a backlight but not necessary

Stepper Motor and Driver

  • Ebay $2.50
  • Amazon $3.00 ( 5 at a time )

Servo Motor

Laser

Tools

  • Needle Nose Plyers
  • Wire Cutters
  • Wire Strippers
  • Multi Meter
