Wait, you can buy discrete electronics components in a physical store?
- DanBC 6y agoSure. Here's one in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, UK: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.9034553,-2.0801054,3a,41y,30.31h,84.84t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1s6JHb2WGHEjYhzs3Y1o83Qw!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo0.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3D6JHb2WGHEjYhzs3Y1o83Qw%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D10.33875%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i13312!8i6656 https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.9034553,-2.0801054,3a,41y,...
- Nullabillity 6y agoKjell (my example from earlier) has physical stores throughout Sweden. Their offerings aren't super deep, but they have plenty of kits and common parts to get started with.
- JAlexoid 6y agoYep. I can go to a store and get literally everything to build a smart lights control system for my mother's apartment - in Vilnius, Lithuania. https://www.lemona.lt/?page=item&i_id=60796 https://www.lemona.lt/?page=item&i_id=60796 The irony - I cannot do the same in NYC, but the components that I can buy online are cheaper here.
- dragontamer 6y agoI'm able to at Microcenter here in the USA. Picked me up a cheap oscilloscope too.
- mNovak 6y agoI do love Microcenter, but the one in my hometown I've never seen bare components. Actually nothing hobby-centric really at all, not even breakout boards or small modules.
