Hobby ComponentsStudent Electronics Kit

Good selection of components, esp for the price. Some observations- LEDs are fairly sensitive, if you connect them to 3V without a resistor they burn out- The jumper cables are very high quality- The little breadboard is very handy, but the power rails on mine do not perfectly match the jumper cables, so I ended up using a thicker wire- Resistors, capacitors are a good selection (100, 220, 330, 1k, 10k, 100k, 0.47k, 4.7k, 47k Ohm, 0.01, 0.1, 10, 220 uF)

I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the buttons in the kit have flat pins that cannot be inserted into the breadboard. My solution was to cut one of the jump leads in the kit in half, and solder the cut ends onto the button pins. The other ends of the lead are designed to be inserted into the breadboard,

Really nice kit with a great stock of commonly used components.Nice case as well.Some may find fault with what isn't there, but as a starter, it is excellent value. Semiconductors and a decent rechargeable battery can be easily bought as required.

Bought it to help construct my second year uni project as lockdown meant I couldn’t go and get my own things. This had all the basics I needed - LEDS, different coloured push buttons, a breadboard, capacitors, buzzers and different resistors. Great to just have even as a backup in your workshop incase you run out of basic supplies.

Nice little set of spares. Not amazing quality but reasonable value for what you get.

Lots of little toys to get started with (not suitable for 3 year-olds). Delivered promptly. I noticed a week or 2 after that 3 items were missing from the pack. I contacted the seller, Hobby Components, and they were most helpful and delivered the missing parts in about 2 more days.

I bought this for my 8-year-old- son who is interested in learning about electronics. Everything in the kit fits into the tiny box, which is great.Unfortunately, there were no instructions at all, not even a website to go to for more information, so for a beginner this isn't a terribly user-friendly kit as I don't know anything about electronics myself to teach him.Trying to look through other websites is frustrating as not all of the items needed in those projects are necessarily in this box, so I'm afraid after the initial excitement of receiving this kit, it's been sitting on the shelf.

I got this for my Grandson for christmas he found it easy to use and has made different circuits to do different things.Well worth the money
