Solderless Breadboard Starter Kit

This electronic starter kit centres around a robust 830-tie-point solderless breadboard, designed for stable, repeatable prototyping. It weighs approximately 420 g and measures 16.5 × 5.5 × 0.9 cm (breadboard only). The kit includes a dedicated power supply module for clean, regulated voltage delivery. Wiring options comprise 65 rigid jumper wires, 140 flexible solderless jumpers, and 20 female-to-male Dupont wires — ensuring compatibility with Arduino, Raspberry Pi Pico, and other UK-favoured development boards. Two 40-pin straight pin headers support header-based modules and shields. Sensing capability is provided by one precision potentiometer, two photoresistors, and one thermistor. Semiconductor selection includes five 1N4007 rectifier diodes, two PN2222 NPN transistors, one 4N35 optocoupler IC, and one 74HC595 shift register IC. Audio feedback is supported via both active and passive buzzers. Input control is covered by ten tactile buttons. Lighting elements include ten red, green, blue, yellow, and white LEDs each, plus one RGB LED. Capacitors consist of ten 22 pF and ten 104 (100 nF) ceramics, and five 1 µF/50 V and five 10 µF/50 V electrolytics. Resistors span ten values — 10 Ω, 100 Ω, 220 Ω, 330 Ω, 1 kΩ, 2 kΩ, 5.1 kΩ, 10 kΩ, 100 kΩ, and 1 MΩ — with ten units per value.
