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.

Mr - by Alan

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.

Here comes DFRobot's new Analog Ambient Light Sensor for Arduino or Raspberry Pi. Brand new design and much more convenient to use. This sensor help you to detect the light density and reflect the analog voltage signal back to Arduino controller. You can set the threshold of voltage level to trig other unit on Arduino project.

We also use the enviromental PT550 light sensor and it is more sensitive to light than normal one. Place check following improvement we made. We always devote to bring better user experience.

Gravity Arduino Raspberry Pi light Sensor Project 2

This Arduino Light sensor can capture little change of light!!

Gravity Arduino Raspberry Pi Light Sensor Project

To ease the difficult of using this light sensor, a Gravity Interface is adapted to allow plug&play. The IO sensor shield is the best match for this sound senor connecting to your Arduino. As this sensor can work at 3.3V which make it compatible with Raspberry Pi, intel edison, joule and curie.

|Projects|Project 1. DFRobot AutoEco System takes care of your garden.
By following this project it will help to grow a vegetable garden, and automate some other processes in our house along the way.
List of basic hardware to setup an AutoEco Sys:

1. Romeo

2. X-Board

3. Light Sensor

4 .Gas Sensor

5 .Motion Sensor

6. Tempreture&Humidity Sensor

7. Waterproof temperature sensor

Project 2. Micro:bit Surprise box
In this project it shows how the box interacts with flahsing hearts.
Main Components:
micro:bit
DFRobot micro:bit Expansion Shield
DFRobot Ambient Light Sensor
Servo Motor 9g
Project 2. Hyduino - Automated Hydroponics with an Arduino
hydroponics is growing plants without the use of a traditional dirt medium by using a nutrient rich water solution. This is especially great for those people that that have limited areas in their backyard to grow in.
Hardware list:

Arduino Mega 2560
Peristaltic Pumps (2)
Regular Pump
pH Electrode Probe and Connection to Arduino
5V Relay Modules for Arduino
12V Solenoid Valve
DHT11 or DHT21 or DHT22 Humidity/Temperature Sensor
Photosensitive Sensor for Arduino
Breadboard
Various Wires
Grow Lights (mine are LED)
Sockets for Grow Lights
3.2" TFT LCD Shield + Touch Screen (usually has an SD card reader on the back of it)
Water Level Sensor Float Switch (2)
I2C RTC DS1307 AT24C32 Real Time Clock Module
9V and 12V Power Supplies
Hydroponics Pots (I'm using 10 - 3" pots for this)
1" PVC Pipe and Fittings + Drain Pipe and Fittings
