    Default Another Help find something post

    Hi all.
    I suppose everyone knows what a "logic probe" is and looks like?
    Well, does anyone have any idea where I can find some of those beaut little plastic cases to build a PIC into.
    There is a site in US but they only supply schools, so I don't qualify.
    Maplin don't have any, and I can't find any over here in Australia.

    Once again, thanks a lot.

    Yeah, seen both those Keith.
    The first one is the one that only sells to schools and the Maplin one is not really a probe case at all, just a small square box.
    I did buy a couple of them, but just not what I'm after.
    Thanks anyway.

    oh well.... worth a try!

    I used to spend a fortune with Maplin and always got a free trade catalogue.

    One year they didnt send it so I phoned to ask why....

    MAPLIN: "you didnt spend enough money last year"

    ME: "thats because you discontinued everything I used to buy"

    End result.... I have spent less at Maplin in the last 6 or 7 years than I used to spend in a month.

    I now buy most of my stuff from Rapid, CPC and Farnell

    Just looked at Rapid....

    Angry

    WOW! That's EXACTLY what I am looking for...
    Signed up and ordered.....Minimum order (outside UK) = 100quid. Dammit, don't want that many!

    Have to keep looking......

    Thanks again for the effort Keith.

    BTW, just had a look around your website. This HA stuff is something I am very interested also, but have not done a whole lot with. I do have a few X-10 modules that will be used somewhere, somehow, soon.
    I also developed an interface that plugs into a commercial alarm panel and feeds commands to the X-10 network. Works brilliantly too.

    How many are you looking for ?

    I order from Rapid quite often so could easily add some to the order and ship them off for you.

    That would be great Keith.

    Can I pay you by Card, or Paypal? by any chance?
    Don't forget the postage.
