Really enjoyed this little project

Wanted a little kit to demonstrate the joule thief circuit and this is perfect! Easy to assemble and compact; it makes the perfect little desk widget.

Great kit

I bought this kit as a beginning solderer, and it was very easy to understand and put together. The PCB is excellently made, and the 10mm LED is a good size and shape for making an LED lamp.

Great First Kit for Beginners

Used it as a first soldering kit for middle school students. They enjoyed the construction and the fact that it worked upon completion. They are now asking what the next project will be!

Great little kit

The Joule Thief is an excellent little project. I chose the older, more compact version, and it was easy and fun to build. The instructions were thorough and easy to understand. I assembled my Joule Thief in about 45 minutes, and I was taking my time. Highly recommended as an introduction to soldering and electronic principles!
