It has been a while since we last added new device support for the Arduino compatible Low Power Library. Beta copies of the library were tested by quite a number of willing people and the result is super amazing! We are very glad that people are finding the library very useful. Read more

On the 15th May 2013, Malaysia Postal Service made some changes to it’s international mail service. It is basically a measure of separating items that are classified as letters, documents & printed material from other items that are not, like small items, commercial samples, tapes, and others. In simpler terms, they want us to pay more! We can no longer send orders using the International Registered Mail that has been proven to be quite reliable and affordable although it takes a little longer to reach it’s destination. Read more

Mini Ultra 8 MHz Plus is finally out for sale. The design went through several iterations before the final version (from the full feature white board on the left of the image above to the final version on the most right). We want the cost to be optimized in order for people to be able to deploy them in bigger volume applications like for example wireless sensor network. So, we had to strip off some on of the feature available on the initial design. Having an Arduino board factor allows you to test them with available shields in the market before you eventually make a power optimized version of that shield as not many shields out there are optimized for low power applications.

Mini Ultra Plus

Some of you might come across our first attempt on making a low power Arduino compatible board here. That was 2 years ago (time sure flies)! Well we thought it would be great if the board gets a little revamp and some tweaking so that it’s power consumption is comparable to our Mini Ultra 8 MHz! Read more

Here at Rocket Scream, every boards are tested before being put on sale. When we first started, we have to admit we were awfully ineffective in testing each product that we made. Each test process was time consuming and our method could be described as primitive (imagine rubber bands…). Read more
