What is it?

This is a soldering kit for beginners. Based on just one unipolar transistor, it operates as a touch sensor. Shake hands of the sun and it will begin shining happily!

Extremely good for events such as Maker Faire, fab lab open days, and others (ask me for a special price!).

This simple but illustrative device will help your little brother, daughter or grandchildren make their first steps in electronics. The result will appear just in a few minutes of soldering. Such a fascinating way of studying!

Sun and its hands are immersive gold surfaces. The kit contains:

1 × PCB
1 × Resistor 24 Ohm
1 × Resistor 100 Ohm
1 × Unipolar transistor
1 × Battery retainer
3 × Rectangular LED

Why did I make it?

I used to work as DIY-kits developer. The main problem was how to engage young people in electronics and programming. I tried a lot of different methods and afterward, I've found balance.

What makes it special?

Wow-effect! I will never forget this "Wow, mommy, it lights!! I did it!" — kids start to believe in their superpower. Future Tony Starks… I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talking about!)
