Adafruit SpikenzieLabs Calculator Kit

The SpikenzieLabs Calculator Kit offers a distinctive hands-on electronics experience. With easy-to-solder through-hole parts, you can build a fully functional battery-powered pocket calculator. This kit includes electronic and plastic components, ensuring both utility and style.

Featuring add, subtract, multiply, and divide functions, this calculator is pre-programmed and computer-free. It is easily modified using the Arduino IDE, enabling endless customization possibilities. Six bright red 7-segment LED modules ensure clear visibility, while the single CR2032 battery provides instant-on functionality, automatic sleep mode, and extended battery life.

The design includes a layered laser-cut acrylic case, offering durability and aesthetic appeal. Although basic tools like a soldering iron, solder, and wire cutters are required, assembly can be enhanced with simple items like masking tape and a hex wrench, or even pliers for screw assembly. The Arduino-compatible bootloader adds a layer of hackability, making the kit an exciting venture for those eager to experiment.
