2. Purecrea Mini USB UART FTDI Programmer 3.3/5V USB Serial

This breakout board contains an FT232 compatible chip that enables USB to serial communication. This programming adapter is not necessary on an Arduino Uno. However, if you have an ESP8266, Sonoff or Arduino ProMini, you will need this board for programming. There is a jumper on the board with which you can easily switch between 3.3 V or 5 V logic. On this board, the DTR is brought out instead of the RTS pin. This makes it possible to automatically reset the micro controller after uploading a programme.

4. Purecrea Breadboard / breadboard half-size

This white 400-point breadboard, also known as a prototyping board or plugboard, is used for building electronic circuits. Components do not need to be soldered as with traditional circuit boards; instead, they can be directly plugged into the board. This makes it especially suitable for prototypes or experimental setups. This breadboard is ideal for both hobbyists and schools. On the left and right sides, there are GND and VCC pins that are connected. It is best to connect these pins to the power supply of your Arduino, or you can use a plug-in power supply, which we also offer under the name "Power Adapter for Breadboard." The breadboard features pins in the center that are labeled in the columns with "a" to "j" and in the rows with numbers 1, 2, etc. The pins "a, b, c, d, e" are interconnected, as are the pins "f, g, h, i, j."

6. Purecrea 5m WS2812B - 60LED/m LED NeoPixel Strip Roll

This NeoPixel RGB LED strip features 300 small RGB LEDs (5x5 mm) distributed over a length of 5 meters. The LEDs are mounted on a bendable PCB strip. The back of the strip has an adhesive surface, making it easy to stick on. Multiple NeoPixel strips can be connected in series, and each LED can be easily controlled via a microcontroller, such as Arduino UNO, Mega, Nano, etc., through a single output. There are also many programming examples available. Simply search for NeoPixel or WS2812B.

The LED strips may be soldered at certain points. We recommend connecting a capacitor between the positive and negative terminals at the end of the strip for voltage stabilization. The strips can be cut or soldered at the marked points.

9. Purecrea TP4056 Lithium LiPo battery Battery charging module USB C 5V 1A

With this LiPo charger, you can safely charge and discharge 1s (1 cell) LiPo batteries such as 18650. The built-in TP4056 chip protects the battery against overcharging and deep discharging.
