Prototyping
Everything you need to wire up your next build — headers, sockets, breakaway pins, and more. Our prototyping supplies cover standard 2.54 mm pitch and finer-pitch connectors suited to breadboards, PCBs, and custom builds alike.
Whether you're a hobbyist, STEM student, or professional engineer, these components make it easy to prototype quickly and iterate faster. Popular with makers and educators across Australia, with fast local dispatch.
Bulk LDR Photoresistor - 10 pack

Photo cell (CdS photoresistor)
SKU: AF-161 | Brand: Adafruit
CdS cells are little light sensors. As the squiggly face is exposed to more light, the resistance goes down. When its light, the resistance is about 5-10KΩ, when dark it goes up to 200KΩ. To use, connect one side o...
