have you tried out these arduino clones? i remember getting burned buying a bootleg ethernet shield once. On Wed, Dec 11, 2013 at 2:03 PM, Jake <jake(a)spaz.org> wrote:

well it's hard to say if they're from the same factory, but i certainly have four here that came in last month and they seem to work fine. as for your ethernet shield, i'm sorry it didn't work out but i would be curious what was wrong with it.. and those things can be sort of hard to configure so how sure are you that there was something wrong with it? anyway I think the risk is worth it, considering the price. Any factory is going to make bunk parts and i'm glad that China ships the bad ones instead of throwing them in the trash - at least you can put them in the hack pile and do something with them later. if you get defective parts, you just tell them and they ship you replacement ones immediately, no questions asked and no need to ship the old one back. -jake On Wed, 11 Dec 2013, Gregg Horton wrote:

New subject: LeOlympia surfacemount kits

i still have 20 LeOlympia kits with Noisebridge Red circuitboards with the noisebridge logo! they are surfacemount Arduino Leonardo clones. I also have solder paste stencils and solder paste so we can build them hot-plate style in a class. the leonardo / leolympia is cool because its a real USB device, so it can pretend to be a serial port, or a keyboard or mouse or disk drive or whatever! -jake On Thu, 12 Dec 2013, Mitch Altman wrote:
