Are you new to soldering and want to learn the basics with one easy kit? This Flashlight Soldering Kit is an easy to assemble soldering kit designed to help teach the basics of through hole soldering and circuit design.
This kit requires you to only solder four unique parts onto a PCB and then insert a CR2032 battery, once completed you will be provided with a simple flashlight that will light up dark areas and keep the monsters away!

Inside each Basic Flashlight Soldering Kit bag is a PCB, a small coin cell battery, a battery holder, an LED, a resistor, and a switch. On the front of the kit’s PCB, you can see markings and outlines for the four different components to make sure everything is assembled correctly, while on the back is a schematic of the flashlight circuit showing all four components and how they interact with each other. All you need to supply is a soldering iron and solder to put your kit together!
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
