New Product Reviews

2012.6.16

Tronixstuff is a blog full of valuable information for Arduino developers. It contains a wealth of information about Arduino including tutorials and example projects.

John at Tronixstuff has been kind to review some of our products, and here is what he had to say:

First out this round was Simpleclock, our easy to assemble Arduino-based LCD clock:

Conclusion

The Simpleclock was easy to assemble and works very well. It would make a fun kit for those learning to solder, as they have something that once completed is a reminder of their success and useful in daily life. Apart from using USB for power instead of a DC socket it's a great kit and I would recommend it to anyone interested in clocks, enjoys kit assembly, or as a gift to a young one to introduce them to electronics and microcontrollers.

Next, he also reviewed both variants of TWILCD, our character display backpacks that support any HD44780-based LCD display.

Conclusion

The TWILCD backpacks are simple, easy to setup and easy to use. They make using LCD displays a lot easier and faster for rapid prototyping, experimenting or making final products easier to use and program. A well-deserved addition to every experimenter’s toolkit.
