Technician support - by Elise

Jase went out of his way to come to our home on a weekend to service our 3D printer and give our son tips on how to best use his 3D printer. Love the commitment, responsiveness and excellent knowledge.

Excellent Service - by Rob

I absolutely love my Ultimaker S3 simply because it works as advertised and I don't have to spend hours fixing, prepping and correcting a 3D printer just to get my job done. It has revolutionised my workflow. Mindkits is always there to support you and gave excellent training at the start.

Have been buying various products from MindKits for our school for some years.

Found they have a good range of quality gear at good prices and reliable supply.

This board has gone red! Checkout the new version here - it incorporates a variety of small changes including a jumper to disable the power LED.

The BME680 from Bosch is a powerful sensor capable of sensing humidity, barometric pressure, temperature and indoor air quality. The BME680 can communicate over SPI or I²C (default). The SparkX carrier board provides jumpers to select between communication protocols (SPI or I²C) as well as the ability to change the I²C address and remove the I²C pull up resistors. The carrier board also incorporates two Qwiic connectors so you can start talking to the board immediately - no soldering required!

While the BME680 is a very small IC, getting actual indoor air quality (IAQ) out of the BME680 is difficult. If you need a more direct sensor we recommend the SparkFun Environmental Sensor Combo which uses the CCS811 along side the BME280. Both sensors have robust libraries and a direct calculation of tVOCs and equivalent CO2.

We currently do not have a library for the BME680 available but will be releasing one soon.

We do not plan to regularly produce SparkX products so get them while they’re hot!

Experimental Product: SparkX products are rapidly produced to bring you the most cutting edge technology as it becomes available. These products are tested but come with no guarantees.
