Reizen en Weesp
It is here, and fun to play with: the Micro-KIM has arrived. Read here more about how it works.
The Monacor EK-20 kit is a bit unusual. Monacor is not really known for elektronic kits, but apparantly they did produce this one. This kit has a similarity with the science fair kits as sold in the U.S.A., the labels on the boards are cleary in english, so there must be an equivalent kit. Also in the building instructions some designs are marked not to be used in Germany due to the law. Fun designs by the way like a radio transmitter.
