Welcome back, everyone! It's Friday and you know what that means? New products! This week, we have three new kits to show off to you and we'll start it off with the new Essential Sensor Kit V2. This kit includes all of the most vital sensors currently available and only changes out a few parts that have been most effected by the supply chain issues plaguing our community. Following that, we have two new PIR Breakout Kits that require absolutely zero soldering! These kits are great for detecting motion in a small area and optimized for small movements to offer motion-sensing options for battery powered applications. Now, let's take a closer look at this week's new products!
