Lighthouse Beginner Soldering Kit
KIT-14635
1
DESCRIPTION INCLUDES DOCUMENTS
A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor, so start learning how to solder with
this kit! With this Lighthouse soldering kit you will be able to learn the basics and
some intermediate skills of soldering by being able to assemble an Isophase
lighthouse! Each Lighthouse kit takes about 10-20min to assemble with basic
soldering materials (not included). Fear not all you lovers of Lovecraft and
occulting lighthouses, by changing the value of the resistors you can change
the flashing pattern!
Every Lighthouse Beginner Soldering Kit includes one lighthouse PCB and
base, a CR2032 battery holder, four resistors, two NPN transistors, two
capacitors, a power switch and a single white LED for the lighthouse light!. All
you need to supply (besides a soldering iron and solder) is a CR2032 coin cell
battery since it is not included to make shipping easier.
Note: Since this product is a kit, assembly and a basic knowledge of soldering
will be required. The Lighthouse soldering kit does not come pre-assembled.

Good excercise for beginners
about 4 months ago by Member #792375 verified purchaser
I made an activity for a group of 20 middle and high school kids to solder the light-house kit.
They were very excited. It was easy and straight forward. We finished the project in under 3 hours.
Some of them made some mistakes like soldering the capacitors in the opposite polarity etc. they learnt how to
correct their mistakes.
It worked very well.
Thank you
