Excellent design There are several kinds of electronic learning kits out there. The “Snap Circuits” are too simple, and confine understanding to manipulating black boxes. At the other end, I tried a 300 in 1 kit from another manufacturer that was too advanced to use alone–one needs an instructor in the hands-on skills required even to start to use it. Then there is the boxes of parts and soldering iron approach.But the best approach I have seen is this kind of design–the spring grip connectors remove…
Great learning tool but poorly constructed. This is a great learning tool for experimenting with electronics. Highly recommended for parent/kid learning and bonding.My only criticism accounts for 2 missing stars: the build quality. It’s laminated cardboard with a piece of paper on the bottom. Not sturdy and not high quality. I would have paid twice as much for something more substantial. It’s a real shame because the kit is great and there’s so much that can be done with it. Unfortunately this is where America is now. Our jobs sold…
Sad for the State of a Little Box that I Love I hate to give this a 3-star review. Many years ago, I bought the 130-in-1 for my young son from a local Radio Shack. He loved to make alarms that would go off when my wife and I were not expecting it. He learned, got a BS in electrical engineering from Clemson, and an MS degree in engineering from Columbia. I also used this when I taught science to 6th graders for many years. So, this little box holds a dear place in my heart. I probably left this at the school after I retired, so I decided…
